The Brain Needs To Rest

"The brain needs to rest." I first saw this simple yet powerful message on a hobbit-style hut at a retreat center in Peru’s Sacred Valley. It was a call to us “busy humans” to slow down, shut off, and create space for stillness. Years later, this reminder still makes me pause.
In this episode, I share the story of the hut, its resident shaman Benito, and his profound practice of simplicity and rest. His message is one we all need to hear.
Take a moment to pause-and listen.
