Move, Rest, Recover: A Workbook by Erin Taylor
Discover how you can balance your mind, body, and nervous system with this practical workbook designed to help you create a recovery practice that supports you in performing and feeling better in all aspects of your active lifestyle.Recovery is the most readily available yet underutilized tool for well-being, the counterbalance to your active lifestyle that allows you to rise to the ever-increasing demands and pace of work, training, and life. This is a missed opportunity that makes you vulnerable to illness, injury, and burnout. Through reflection, writing prompts, and accessible mental and physical recovery tools, Move, Rest, Recover guides you to activate, strengthen, and sustain your own restorative practice. Learn to move through each day more effectively and with more ease, and to use recovery to full advantage by:- Decreasing stress and tension
- Absorbing the benefits and gains of your efforts
- Increasing attentional capacity
- Managing and solving physical pain
- Promoting mental stability
- Boosting your immune system
- Improving the quality of your sleep
- And more
Whether you're putting in long hours at the office, training for a marathon, or managing the schedule and demands of your household, you'll gain understanding of how to clear lingering mental and physical stress and tension throughout your day, every day, in ways that work for you.
You can do everything right--curate the best schedule, follow the perfect training plan, and eat all the right foods--but without fully embracing your mind and body's innate need for rest, and dedicating ample attention to it, you will miss out. Use this book to rest and recover now, right where you are.
