Despite rising levels of burnout and exhaustion, many of us find it impossible to switch off
on Sunday , La Pompe-Moore spoke about how our admiration for being busy is getting in the way of our ability to rest.
“But I think when we stop believing that the pinnacle of our human existence is how busy we are, we can take a step back from that. Because ultimately, we’ll always find it really difficult to rest or be still when we celebrate busyness – when it becomes such a huge part of our language to honour that and say, ‘Yes, I’m busy and I’m therefore successful.’”It’s this admiration and respect for busyness which has led to so many of us feeling guilty when we rest, La Pompe Moore explains.
She continued: “We’ve forgotten how to be with ourselves. So, when we do have those moments to breathe, to just take things in, all of our thoughts come up and we start to think about our to-do list and what we want to have for dinner, instead of just allowing ourselves to be here.”Knowing that society’s obsession with busyness could be to blame for your inability to rest makes sense – but it doesn’t make it any easier.
