Every summer, I go into the season with big plans. As my kids grow and as our season of life changes, my approach to the summer feels a little different each time.

A few weeks ago, I followed my boys as they walked into the house, and one of them said, “Man, I love home.” And the other said, “Me, too. Home is pretty great.” I tried to play it cool and thankfully didn't cry because that would have embarrassed them so much. But it got me thinking - why do they love home? Why do any of us love being home? I was able to identify a couple of things that surprised me, and I'm excited to share those thoughts with you today.

The Seven Kinds of Rest and How to Know Which One You Need is one of those episodes we didn't expect to become a classic, but it kind of has. It helps differentiate different kinds of rest and what you might actually need. It's why when people, even people like me, tell you to take a nap and it doesn't help, it might be because you're looking for a different kind of rest than what napping offers.

Daily rest is the sustainable driving force of living whole, present lives. We wrongly think that rest comes from big, sweeping things, like vacations or long weekends away. Those are great, but we all need ways to rest and feel like ourselves every single day. So today, we're going to hear from you. Over a hundred of you shared ideas of how you get simple, meaningful rest, and we have curated a list of ideas and experiences to share. You might hear your own idea or voice on this episode, but more than that I hope you hear yourself, your own experience, that you hear solidarity and a simple, meaningful idea that can help you rest in a sustainable, reasonable, do-it-right-now way.
