At the start of 2024, you made a lot of commitments to yourself. You vowed to ensure your own cup was full, to execute on your business ventures, and to continue building community for those around you. Well, you’ve done it all and more. With Q4 now beginning, we want to remind you that beauty often lies in rest.
We live in a world that constantly celebrates the grind. Oftentimes we’re working long hours, managing countless responsibilities, and yet still somehow this feeling persists that tells us we need to be doing even more. So, this November we want to remind you that sleep is not a luxury; it’s a necessity.
Firstly, we’re going to challenge you to reframe the way you think about rest. There is a prevalent myth that says that success is achieved by constantly sacrificing rest for work. But, this isn’t the full truth. Research has shown that adequate sleep not only boosts productivity, but it also enhances creativity, and aids in decision-making. Think of productivity not as cramming the most into your schedule, but as focusing on the quality of your work and the clarity of your thoughts. We want you to focus not on doing more, but on doing things better.
Furthermore, resting is an act of self-love. It’s a gift you give yourself every night—a way to honor your mind, body, and soul. When we sleep, our bodies perform an array of essential functions like repairing cells, strengthening the immune system, and processing emotions. Sleep isn’t a pause button on life—it’s a way to prepare for all that is to come, and it allows you to bring your best self to every situation.
This month, we’ve equipped you with all of the essential items you need to have sweet dreams this holiday season. You’ll be cozied up in bed with the Ivy Leaf Two-Piece Pajama Set and keeping your tendrils moisturized and intact with the matching Ivy Leaf Bonnet. Rest well, sleeping beauty.
