Rest Is A Requirement

[00:00:17.55]Hey, welcome back to Rooted&Real.
[00:00:23.59]And today we’re going to talk about Rest.
[00:00:29.60]Okay, rest is not a reward.
[00:00:33.61]It’s a requirement.
[00:00:35.60]You know rest? ‘Kupumzika’ (Resting).
[00:00:38.09]You don’t have to earn rest.
[00:00:40.61]You don’t have to burn out fast.
[00:00:43.62]You don’t have to collapse fast.
[00:00:46.61]You don’t have to deserve it by being exhausted, ‘hapana’ (no).
[00:00:50.62]Rest isn’t something you get after you’re empty.
[00:00:54.63]It’s how you stay full.
[00:00:58.63]If you feel guilty for slowing down,
[00:01:03.64]there’s something called ‘Grind Culture’.
[00:01:07.64]That is what is talking.
[00:01:09.64]You’re not a machine. You’re a human.
[00:01:12.65]Humans need sleep. Humans need stillness.
[00:01:17.65]Humans need silence.
[00:01:20.66]Saying, “I’m tired!” is not weakness.
[00:01:23.67]It’s actually wisdom.
[00:01:26.66]The world will take everything you give.
[00:01:29.67]Your job is to protect what you keep.
[00:01:34.68]So you take the nap. Log off.
[00:01:37.69]Say no to one more thing.
[00:01:42.69]Rest is resistance.
[00:01:45.68]Rest is holy.
[00:01:49.69]Rest is how you come back whole.
[00:01:55.71]You don’t have to earn your breath.
[00:01:58.70]You just get to take it.
[00:02:01.71]Rest is not a reward. It’s a requirement.
[00:02:04.72]Protect it.
[00:02:06.72]Thank you.
