ECP086 PRIME - the Rest one

Effective Challenge Podcast productive, happy & well

In Episode 86 of the Effective Challenge Podcast, we continue our five-part exploration of the PRIME resilience model by diving into the critical role of Rest. This episode breaks down the importance of rest into three key areas: sleep, short breaks, and extended breaks. From understanding how quality sleep supports our cognitive function and immune system to recognising the value of stepping away for short breaks during the day, this conversation combines practical insights with scientific research to help you improve your resilience.

We also discuss the transformative power of extended breaks, such as holidays, for gaining clarity and recharging both mentally and physically. Along the way, we challenge workplace cultures that discourage rest and explore simple strategies to make rest an integral part of your daily life. Tune in to learn how small adjustments can make a big impact on your health, decision-making, and overall wellbeing.
