WEEK 4 | REST

BE STRONG WITH THE Y | WEEK 4

Your STRONG Challenge continues with Rest!

Chillaxing, naps, a good night’s sleep…REST. It’s something we all need desperately to thrive but ignore its mystical powers. Why does REST always seem to get put on the backburner of our 1000 MPH-paced lives. We all fall victim to not falling asleep at a regular time, ignoring quiet time with prayer and/or meditation or not designating a rest or Sabbath (God’s way of saying REST!) day for our week.

This week, we reclaim our health with the power naps, sleeping in, quieting our minds…this week, we REST!
