Why you can’t let yourself ResT

Why is it so hard to rest, even when you know you need it? For many women, staying busy isn't simply about being productive. It can be a way of managing discomfort, staying ahead, or feeling in control. For neurodivergent women, sensory strain, self-monitoring and the effort of constantly adapting can make rest even more complicated. Sometimes the question isn't how to relax, but why stopping feels so difficult in the first place.
