We Tried To Rest And Accidentally Scheduled It Like Harvest

We explore why we’ve confused numbing with real rest and how that drains health, clarity, and joy. We face time scarcity, guilt, and identity to make space for intentional recovery and purpose-driven work, even during busy seasons on the farm.

• health as the farm’s true asset
• rest as active renewal not numbing
• time scarcity and self-imposed deadlines
• different work styles and family logistics
• phone dopamine and overstimulation
• guilt, identity, and “hard worker” stories
• redefining success through a feminine lens
• letting the team work while you step away
• simple daily intentions and lock-screen prompts
• single-task focus, low-stimulation evenings
• practical plan: coffee shop sessions and boundaries
