      🔥 Why 99% of Self-Care Advice is Wrong—The Science of Deep Rest

      Self-Care is NOT Just Bubble Baths & Spa Days

      💡 True rest isn’t escape. It’s recovery.

      🚫 Most self-care advice is superficial—it soothes stress but doesn’t heal burnout.

      What You Actually Need

      Mental Rest → Say “No” more often. Set boundaries.
      Emotional Rest → Stop over-explaining yourself. Let go of toxic guilt.
      Physical Rest → Sleep early. Stretch. Breathe deeply.
      Sensory Rest → Unplug. Reduce noise. Avoid screen fatigue.

      💡 Science Says: True rest resets your nervous system, lowers cortisol, and reverses burnout.

      🚀 Instead of escaping stress, learn to recover properly!
