As someone watched season one of Severance 5x!!! I think I’m qualified to diagnose Mark S. and his rest deficits. Emotional and spiritual rest deficits are preventable with the right framework. As a rest expert, this is my advice to Mark. Based on the chart, what type(s) of rest do you need the most right now? #rest #seventypesofrest P.S. @mradamscott please pass this along to Mark’s outtie!

Imagine being able to go to your favorite events and actually have a place to reset in the middle of the action. That’s where Rest Stop comes in and today were redesigning the guest experience at @f1 - because what’s a race built for speed with no place for guests to recharge? Would you visit The Pit Stop? 🏎️🏁 • • • #f1 #formulaoneracing @drscholls_official @puma @ouraring @loopearplugs @bose

One of my favorite things I do at Rest Stop is coming up with ways brands and companies can optimize their spaces to include rest and increase guest experiences & @festivaldecannes felt like a natural fit for a re-design. In The Edit Room, guests will have a chance to relax, reset and process everything the festival has to offer in style. Would you visit this pop-up? ⭐️ • • • @sony @buildnapbox @brooklinen @adobe @adobecreativecloud @adobevideo

Not too much on Ashely 😅 her character was real, and so were the crash outs. I always like to remind people that rest is not just about sleep. It’s about the ways you reset throughout your day that prevent physical and emotional burnout. #rest

I want to believe that the future of festivals will include restful spaces for us to recharge without going home. I love going to Jazz Fest and feel with these additions, the festival can really allow guests to maximize their time on the grounds ⭐️ Would you go to The Revival Lounge? #neworleansjazzfest @jazzfest @snobliz @thedailybeet @moon.pod @topochicousa @sunnipatterson

Season two of BEEF is a masterclass in burnout 😅 the characters are chronically burnout out in one of the seven types of rest and are crashing out all season because of it. Have you watched yet? • • • #beefnetflix #netflix

In this series I’m rating Coachella pop ups based on how well they allowed guests to rest, and today we’re giving @rhode an 8.5/10 ✨ Rest accessible spaces are the future of community gatherings and activations. When I launched my rest concierge business Rest Stop last year it was birthed from attending these events and seeing missed opportunities for brands to really integrate their audience into their worlds with restful spaces & Coachella is the perfect place to try new things! Tell me, with these adjustments, would you attend this activation? • • • #coachella

Being raised in the South I was always taught to be the “nice” one, and I finally found the words to describe this ⭐️ Not expressing emotions freely is a conditioned reality for many of us, but luckily it doesn’t have to stay that way. Emotional rest happens when you start speaking your mind. We don’t often think of emotional expression as rest, but rest can count as the things that replenish us and leaves us feeling balanced. Rest isn’t just about sleep, but can also describe the ways you choose to reset throughout your day. • • • #emotionalrest #rest #seventypesofrest

Rest accesible spaces are the future of our IRL gatherings. If you’re an artist, collective, brand or world builder, you have a chance to innovate your community spaces to allow your guests to stay longer, and want to come back. In this series, I’m rating Coachella pop ups based on how well they did this, and if I were designing for @skylrk here’s what I would have done differently. UPDATE since filming this: it turns out there was a “Skylark Oasis” with some seating + misters (shoutout to the person who told me on Tik Tok) but I still feel like an elevated approach could have taken this to the next level. With these adjustments, would you visit Club Skylark? 🤞🏾 • • • #rest #coachella #justinbieber

Rest accessible spaces are the future of entertainment, concerts and community gatherings, and that’s exactly what I’m building with Rest Stop! Would you visit The Oasis at Coachella? 😊 • • • #beatburnout #rest #adamscott #coachella @mradamscott

If you still feel burnt out after sleeping, you may be missing out on the Seven Types of Rest. CAPTION ⬇️🛏️💤 “Many of us are going through life thinking that we have rested because we have slept, but in reality we are missing out on the other types of rest that we need.” - Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith Here are the 7 types of rest your body actually needs: • Physical Rest: sleep, naps, stretching, slow walks • Mental Rest: pause the constant thinking (journal, meditate, quiet time) • Sensory Rest: step away from screens, noise, and notifications • Creative Rest: go outside, look at art, watch the sky, notice beauty • Emotional Rest: tell the truth about how you feel, stop performing • Social Rest: spend time with people who refill you, not drain you • Spiritual Rest: prayer, nature, ritual, connecting to something bigger Burnout isn’t a personal failure. It’s often a rest deficit. FULL TEDx video on YouTube: “The real reason why we are tired and what to do about it” by Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith #rest #restrevolution
