Be wary of yang activities that masquerade as yin Are you actually resting, or are you doing vinyasa yoga, hopping in a sauna, eating a cheat meal, or working on a “side project”? All of these examples can ofc be yin nourishing, but there is a tendency (esp. in American culture) to exert oneself under the guise of rest

this resonates... if I take a vacation and spend the entire time building a side project, that's not really a vacation. It's just working for a different person (myself).

totally. for me, real rest requires addressing deeply-ingrained toxic beliefs around productivity, laziness, self-worth, etc. otherwise i’m so stressed about resting it doesn’t work anyway. sometimes it’s easier to just do some kind of productive fake yin activity than deal with all the trauma 😂 working on it though!
