Taking Time to Recharge: Why Rest Is Spiritual

April 09, 2025 • Amanda Rankin • Season 1 • Episode 5

In this episode of Taking It Off-Topic, my guest Melisaa and I talk about the importance of taking time to recharge—physically, emotionally, and spiritually. We explore why rest isn’t a luxury, but a necessary part of living intentionally, maintaining balance, and showing up fully in our lives and relationships.

We discuss the challenges of setting boundaries, letting go of guilt, and creating space for yourself in a world that often glorifies busyness. This episode is for anyone feeling burned out, overwhelmed, or in need of a reminder that rest is vital for health, growth, and spiritual well-being.
