Rest & Restore – Week 2: Mental Rest That Lets Your Mind Exhale ☀️🧠✍️
Your body may be on summer break... but is your brain?
In this week’s episode of the Rest & Restore Summer Mini-Series, we’re talking about mental rest—the kind that lets your thoughts settle, your shoulders drop, and your mind finally exhale.
If your teacher brain is still swirling with ideas, plans, and what-ifs, you’re not alone. I’ll walk you through 5 practical ways to quiet the mental noise, including:
- A 5-minute “brain-dump and bless” ritual 📝
- A one-hour screen sabbath to reset your focus 📵
- Simple sensory cues to signal your brain it’s safe to rest 🕯️
- A scripture-based reframe with Philippians 4:8
- Encouragement from 2 Corinthians 12:9–10 to let God meet you in your weakness 💛
You’ll also hear about my updated Get Ready for 2nd Grade packets—designed to help you or your students ease into the school year without doing all the prep yourself. (Think: sip your tea, print, and go. ☕✂️)
