You’re Smarter When You Rest

Think of the decisions you have to make every day. Some have little consequence at the moment, while some decisions feel incredibly important as you’re making them. The truth is that our state impacts our decisions as much as their perceived significance.

“When we’re stressed, our nervous systems become activated. Science shows that when we are at our resting state — tend and befriend — our IQs are at their highest levels. ”

Cultivating a nurturing self-care routine is an essential part of your wellness practice. We designed IDYLHOUR to be accessible to folks with meditation experience and to those who have zero. You deserve time to rest just because you’re alive -- it’s part of our routine maintenance as human beings.
