Did you know that your brain detoxifies itself when you sleep? WOW!
In today' s amazing Self Care Saturday Suite Spot episode, Dr. Derek Suite blends neuroscience with biblical wisdom to help us prioritize our recovery.
Rest isn't a luxury but a biological necessity for peak mental performance and well-being.
Ancient wisdom from Psalm 23 perfectly aligns with modern neuroscience about the brain's need for regular restoration.
KEY SUITE SPOTS:
• Your brain has a "glymphatic system" that cleans out toxins while you sleep
• Without adequate rest, waste products accumulate, causing brain fog and irritability
• High-performing athletes prioritize structured recovery as essential to their success
• Even brief moments of rest can make a significant difference in mental clarity
• Rest is not earned through exhaustion but is a necessary fuel for optimal functioning
• Small actions like extra sleep, phone breaks, nature walks, or deep breathing can restore your mental energy
SUITE SPOT AFFIRMATION:
"Rest fuels me, stillness strengthens me, I choose restoration" reinforces the importance of self-care
