Did you think the best summer of your life would carry you straight into fall with joy and energy—only to find yourself feeling tired, sad, or a little… beige? You're not alone. Many of us experience the end of summer blues or what I'm calling summer grief. In this Episode 152 of Medium Lady Talks, I dive into why seasonal transitions feel so heavy, and how to navigate them with intention. We'll talk about: The emotional drop that comes with the end of summer and back-to-school season Why psychologists recognize summertime sadness and even reverse Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) How invisible labor and new routines contribute to stress and burnout for moms and caregivers Practical strategies using the 7 types of rest (sensory, mental, emotional, social, creative, physical, and spiritual) How the September full moon and the autumn equinox can be embraced as rituals for balance, release, and renewal I'll share real examples from my week, including: Turning my phone to black-and-white mode for sensory rest Creating small 20-minute tasks to reset my home for mental rest Reaching out to my therapist and friends for emotional rest Saying no to extra commitments for social rest Building seasonal clothing capsules for creative rest Exploring moon cycles and equinox reflections for spiritual rest ✨ Takeaway: If you're feeling the September slump, you're not broken. Your body, your calendar, and even the cosmos are shifting. Choose one kind of rest, one ritual, or one reframe to meet yourself with softness this season.

Come And Find Rest Pastor James Burke
Find Rest in God Alone | Psalms 131 and 62 Psalm 131 1 My heart is not proud, Lord, my eyes are not haughty; I do not concern myself with great matters or things too wonderful for me. 2 But I have calmed and quieted myself, I am like a weaned child with its mother; like a weaned child I am content. 3 Israel, put your hope in the Lord both now and forevermore. Psalm 62:5-8 5 Yes, my soul, find rest in God; my hope comes from him. 6 Truly he is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will not be shaken. 7 My salvation and my honor depend on God; he is my mighty rock, my refuge. 8 Trust in him at all times, you people; pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge.

Whoever coined the phrase “tired as a mother” is right up there with the inventor of sliced bread and Velcro toddler shoes. It just makes sense. What DOESN'T make sense is continuing to live in the lie that rest isn't for you - that you don't deserve it, that you can't access it, or that it needs to look a certain way to make sense or be worthwhile. Today's episode will bring true HEALING rest to your heart and soul with bestselling author and speaker Becky Thompson. Becky doesn't have a secret sauce (but spoiler alert: no one does!). What she DOES have is an invitation from Christ to let Him into the messy - because He'll actually meet you there. Warning, this conversation may be balm to your soul. And if you're a neurodivergent mama and/or have neurodivergent kiddos, this is *especially* important for you (read: us).

Message from Rev. Dr. John Yates III on March 23, 2025
“These people needed a break! The Pharisees' legalism surrounding the Mosaic Law had ground them into spiritual powder.” - Stuart Weber“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” - Matthew 11:28-30“Come to Me, all who are weary and heavily burdened [by religious rituals that provide no peace], and I will give you rest [refreshing your souls with salvation]. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me [following Me as My disciple], for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest (renewal, blessed quiet) for your souls. For My yoke is easy [to bear] and My burden is light.” - Matthew 11:28-30 (AMP)A) Our familiesB) Our jobsC) Our mindsD) Our bodiesE) Our stress1 - Come to Jesus. 2 - Take his yoke upon you.To take his yoke expresses trust and relinquishes control over to Jesus.3 - Learn from him.Learn one thing from Jesus every day.4 - Find Rest. This is what the Lord says: “Stand at the crossroads and look; ask for the ancient paths, ask where the good way is, and walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls.” – Jeremiah 6:16“For those who live under the yoke, there is absolutely no better way to live. Who in their right mind would go back to the gods of Self, Money, Lust and Power? Who would return on bended knee to the shrines of pious performance and judgmentalism? Is not love better than hate, purity better than lust, reconciliation better than retaliation? And is not ‘better' really ‘easier' when measured in character rather than convenience, rest for the soul rather than selfish pride?– Doug WebsterChoose your yoke.
