1. Welcome to the Grove of Rest: Hey, creative. How often do you plan rest into your schedule? Is rest an afterthought, an action you take only after you hit the bog of burnout, just because you have to? Do you feel like rest is unproductive or do you feel guilt when you take time to rest on your creative wilderness journey? If so, then it's definitely time to visit the grove of rest to learn how this stop on the creative wilderness map is essential for your creativity to flourish and be sustainable over time. Hey, I'm Liz. I'm an illustrator, educator, and creative business coach in New Mexico. I own a creative company and have spent many years navigating the highs, lows, and unknowns of the creative wilderness. That's why now I am so stoked to share my field notes and tips with you throughout this series so that you can gain more confidence on your creative journey and know that you're not alone out there. As a creative business owner, I want to be fully transparent that the grove of rest is definitely a spot where I could spend more time out here in the creative wilderness. In the past, the grove of rest has been a stop that I really rushed through or feel guilty for taking time to explore because it has felt like when I'm resting, I'm not doing enough. You too. Well, let's change that narrative together. Now, I'm practicing, spending more time in the grove of rest because I've come to see how essential it is to allow my creativity to flourish and to have sustainable energy for my creative wilderness track over the long term. That's why in today's class, I'm sharing how to recognize the seven different types of rest, identify which type of rest you need right now, and take actionable steps to intentionally incorporate the grove of rest throughout your creative journey, rather than only visiting it when you've already hit the bog of burnout. You're ready to dive in? Let's get started. By the way, if you've taken one of the classes in this creative wilderness tip series before and you're already well acquainted with how it works and with what you need, you can go ahead and jump straight to lesson number 4. 2. Your Class Project: In this lesson, we're chatting about your creative wilderness class project. Your class project for this portion of the creative wilderness series is to print off the creative wilderness field guide PDF, and fill out the "Grove of Rest" section. In this section, you'll find the following prompts. One, identify the type of rest you need right now, two, schedule the Grove of Rest into your calendar, and three, make your list of restful activities. You'll learn more about these prompts throughout this class so that you can fill them out in your field guide. You can find the creative wilderness field guide linked in the projects and resources section of this class. You can find that by navigating to the projects and resources tab, and going to the right-hand side of the page where you'll see resources, and you'll see the creative wilderness field guide linked and ready to download. Once you've finished filling out this class portion of the field guide, go ahead and upload it to the class projects section. You can do this by navigating to the projects and resources tab and clicking "Create Project". Once you're here, you'll see a few options to share your project. Go ahead and fill in the project title with the name of this series. In the project description, you can add images from your completed field guide by clicking "Image". This will bring you straight to your files, where you can select the images you'd like to upload. You can also type additional observations from your experience in this portion of the creative wilderness into this space. Once you've included all of your images and observations, go ahead and go to the Cover Image section to upload an image for your project. Again, you'll be brought to your files where you can select your image, click "Open", and then place it just how you want it in the cropped space. Press "Submit." Make sure that when you're finished uploading everything, you hit "Publish". That way, it will go to the class project gallery. In the next lesson, we'll go over the materials you'll need for this class. I'll see you there. 3. Gather Your Materials: In this lesson, we're going over the materials you'll need for this class. For this class, you will need your Creative Wilderness Field Guide, a pen, pencil, or writing utensil of choice, and a phone to take a photo of your completed Field Guide to upload for your class project. That's it. Super simple. In the next lesson we'll go over how to recognize when it's time to make a visit to the Grove of Rest on your creative wilderness journey. I'll see you there. 4. Recognize When You Need Rest: In this lesson I'm sharing how to know when you need to visit the grove of rest on your creative wilderness journey. Typically on the creative wilderness journey, it's pretty common to only visit the grove of rest immediately after you've landed in the bag of burnout. The reason for this is that when we hit the bug of burnout and implement the tips to get out of it, all we can do right after that point is rest. We've depleted all of our energy and the only option we have is to rest in order to then keep going. By the way, if you haven't yet learned how to prevent and heal from the bag of burnout or you need a refresher, you can visit that stop in the creative wilderness by navigating to my profile page and going to the creative wilderness section. Even though the grove of rest typically hand most commonly comes right after burnout, I really want to emphasize that you need to visit the grove of rest intentionally and frequently throughout your creative wilderness journey so that you can prevent burnout and have sustainable energy for your path long-term. See, a huge part of recognizing when you need to visit the grove of rest and why you need to schedule it frequently and intentionally in your journey is awareness. Being aware of yourself and aware of what leads you to feel depleted or unrested is so valuable. What leaves you feeling unrested could be the common symptoms of overworking and lack of sleep. But it could also be the types of work that leave you feeling unaligned, the type of sleep habits that leave you feeling unrested. The people in your life who maybe drain you or don't support you or don't celebrate you or leave you feeling just depleted. Having the awareness and open eyes to witness the things that really don't give you that deep nourishing sense of rest that you need is a huge first step to recognize when you really need to visit the grove of rest and how you can be deeply present for it while you were there. Because the grove of rest is another place to take a break on your creative wilderness journey, you might be wondering what the difference is between the grove of rest and the cave of hiding. Because when we were in the cave of hiding, we also pressed pause and retreated from our journey, right? Yes, totally and there is a clear distinction. The cave of hiding is often influenced by external circumstances like feeling overly vulnerable, having a lot of personal stressors, or feeling scared of other people's opinions. All of these external forces can pull us into the cave of hiding which makes it a bit more of a reactive space to what is happening in life. Now, the grove of rest on the other hand is a much more intentional and internally motivated space. The grove of rest is a place that we plan out or should plan out ahead of time on our creative journey to intentionally press pause and gather energy. A visit to the grove of rest is fueled by intentional and internal motivation rather than only external circumstances. In that case, the grove of rest is or it really should be proactive rather than reactive. But you might be wondering what this grove of rest actually looks like. Well, it's often described as the place rest that you just go to get sleep. But in the next lesson I'm actually sharing that there are seven main different types of rest and how to identify which one you need specifically on your creative wilderness journey right now so that you can get the deep nourishment and energy for your next steps. I'll see you there. 5. Know the 7 Types of Rest: In this lesson I'm sharing the seven different types of rest so you can identify which type you need at different points throughout your creative wilderness journey. The way I like to view the grove of rest is as its own ecosystem. It's a web of many different types of risks that connect to give you the energy and well-being you need for your journey to move forward. Rest is often thought of as sleep and physical rest, but when we can see the full spectrum and ecosystem of different types of rest, we can more accurately assess the type we need and intentionally make space to fulfill that on our journey. This makes the rest way more impactful, effective and nourishing both in the moment and in the long term. The seven types of rest are, number 1, physical rest. This is the type of rest that is often thought about and talked about. Physical rest can be passive like sleeping and napping and it can also be active like yoga, stretching, or massage. When you haven't been getting enough sleep or attending to the physical aspects of being a human being, you likely need to intentionally make time for that physical rest. Two, mental rest. Mental rest is pretty much what it sounds like. Giving your brain a break. This can look like stepping away from your work, away from your computer screen or away from trying to solve a problem to give your brain spaciousness and ease, so if you're feeling brain fog or your mind feels sluggish or overwhelmed, then that means you're mentally exhausted and really need to take time for that mental rest. Number 3, sensory rest. Sensory rest is stepping away from sensory overload, like excessive noise or stimulation to drop into silence, nature or solitude. Sensory overload can happen when there's just a lot of external stimulation happening around you. For example, sometimes I notice that if I work from a coffee shop for a full day, by the end of that day, I may feel a little more irritable and way less motivated because of the continuous noise like dishes breaking, loud music, and lots of people talking. Well, all of that sensory activity is actually really energizing for me at first, it can start to feel a little overwhelming if it's a full day. If you are feeling sensory overload, then you likely need to make time for that sensory rest. Number 4, creative rest. Creative rest looks like taking a step back from your creative practice and intense creative output. This can look like pressing pause on productive output mode to allow inspiration, ideas and reflection to enter in and land on your journey. If you've been in a season of a ton of creative output, then you likely need creative rest. Number 5, emotional rest. Emotional rest looks like saying no more often, resetting boundaries, making time for solitude and tuning into your needs. For me personally, emotional rest is really closely tied to burnout. I often find I need emotional rest when I've been saying yes too much to too many people, both socially and in my work. The need for emotional rest comes up when I let my boundaries slip a lot around my own grounding practices and routines like cooking healthy meals, sleeping enough and moving my body. If you've been feeling like your boundaries are slipping and you're not getting enough time for yourself, then you likely need that emotional rest. Number 6, social rest. Social rest looks like taking time for intentional solitude. If you've been going through a ton of social engagement's not carving out time for yourself, or you're just spending way too much time with people who drain you, or bring you down or don't really believe in you, then you likely need social rest. Lastly, number 7, spiritual rest. Spiritual rest looks like tapping into a bigger purpose or vision, like volunteering, connecting with your community or attending to the earth. Often spiritual unrest starts to really build up when you've been super heavily focused on one particular end goal in your life. You've been striving and working towards this goal with total intention and full focus like you've had blinders on. You've been putting so much energy into this one personal goal that maybe your community friendships and other life tasks start to slip. This can lead you to feel really spiritually depleted. When you feel depleted in this way, like you're losing connection to the bigger picture, then you need that spiritual rest. To recap, the seven types of rest in the grove of rest ecosystem are; one, physical, two, mental, three, sensory, four, creative, five, emotional, six, social and seven, spiritual. Now that you know these seven types of rest, take a moment in your field guide to determine which type you most need to intentionally schedule on your creative wilderness journey right now so that you can have the energy and stamina to keep moving forward. Then meet me in the next lesson where I'll share the tips to intentionally plan for and enter into the grove of rest throughout your creative wilderness journey, so that you can have more sustainable energy, creativity, and momentum for your path long term. I'll see you there. 6. Tips to Fully Rest: In this lesson, I'm sharing the main tips to intentionally and proactively plan and be present for the grove of rest. Tip Number 1, identify which type of rest you need the most right now. Based on the last lesson, identify your current season of life in which type of rest would serve you the best right now. Identifying a specific type of rest you need before you enter into the grove of rest will give you so much more intentional, focused, and impactful rest while you are there. Tip Number 2, plan your rest ahead of time. To make the grove of rest proactive on your journey, plan out your visits to this spot ahead of time. Now, for disclosure and transparency, I can totally be better about this too. I don't always do this because I can really get deep into creative output mode. But I have found that the seasons in my life where I'm actively planning rest ahead of time are way, way better, way more grounded, way more balanced, and way more sustainable. Instead of scheduling the grove of rest just as a place that you visit, as a reward, schedule it as a requirement for your journey. Planning for the grove of rest can look like visiting it for different lengths of time. You can think of this as scheduling three main sizes of rest, short, medium, long. Essentially scheduling a short visit to the grove of rest could look like incorporating daily moments of rest, like taking a 10-minute break for every 15 minutes that you work or taking a five-minute break a couple of times a day to meditate or taking some deep breaths outside in nature. When you incorporate short micro visits to the grove of rest throughout your day, those small breaks really do add up. A medium visit to the grove of rest could look like scheduling an hour lunch break each day and stopping work at a certain time like 5:00 PM to enjoy a relaxing evening cooking or reading a book, or spending time with friends. Scheduling a long visit to the grove of rest can look like planning weekends off, certain days off for holidays or just for rest, scheduling three-day weekends and scheduling weeks off for vacation. To make your visits to the grove of rest intentional and consistent, take a moment now in your field guide to schedule out all three lengths of visiting the grove of rest for your next quarter in your calendar. Not as a reward, but as a requirement. Tip Number 3, plan a sleep schedule and make it consistent. Look, as much as maybe you don't want to believe it, you are a creative human, so you need sleep. Get to know yourself and how much sleep you really need. Usually, it's recommended seven or more hours of sleep per night for adults. I know personally I love to be in bed at 9:00 PM, ideally I sleep by 10:00. I really love to get up around 5:30 or 6:00 in the morning because for me personally, again, that's probably different for you, I know that I like to have a calm, slow, early morning when everything is quiet before I start work. I know that to get up that early and feel rested, I have to intentionally plan to go to bed at a specific time. Set a sleep schedule for yourself that you can intentionally and consistently make time for rest. Tip Number 4, make a list of restful activities. When you make a list of restful activities, you can use your time in the grove of rest much more intentionally rather than arriving there and then not really being sure how to rest, you can arrive with a list of items that you know feel restful to you. For me personally, if I don't know how I'm going to rest, then when it comes time to rest, I can actually feel really antsy and like I'm not doing enough. But when I can reference my list of restful activities like doing a puzzle or going for a trail run or cooking a delicious dinner at home, maybe reading a book, then I feel more prepared to rest intentionally rather than feeling anxious during my visit to the grove of rest and like I shouldn't be doing something else. Take a moment now in your field guide to make a list of rest ideas for yourself that you can intentionally use once you visit the grove of rest. Examples might include reading a book, going for a hike or calling a friend. This list is going to look different and personal for each of us. Makes sure the list feels fitting and authentic for you. Once you have your list of restful activities, you can match it up with the different types of rest in the ecosystem that we discussed earlier in this class. For example maybe right now you need social rest, but calling a friend and going to the farmer's market are both activities on your list of restful ideas. In this instance, neither of those would likely fulfill your need for social rest. Instead, you might want to choose something like take a bath or read a book from your list to fulfill the specific type of rest you need right now. Be sure to pick the specific rest from your list that fits your current needs. Tip Number 5, set intentional boundaries around your work and your business. If you work part-time or full-time, leave the work when you leave the work as best as you can. I know this is hard, especially if you own a creative business or work for a company that you really love. I love my business. I often want to be working on it all the time, but I have to be really intentional to set boundaries of when I do and don't work as well as when I do and don't communicate with clients, and when I do take time to be present in the grove of rest. I even get super specific and have in my email signature my studio hours and when clients can expect to hear from me. That helps to just set the boundary for myself and the expectation for people who might try to reach me on my work email. This makes my boundaries super clear and communicated upfront, which makes it easier to stick to. Set clear work boundaries for yourself and share those boundaries with anyone else they may affect like your family, your friends, or your clients. Lastly, tip Number 6, don't have rest. This is a big one. When you reach the grove of rest on your creative wilderness journey, don't have rest. What I mean by this is that when you are resting, allow yourself to rest fully. For example after I finished filming the second bout of classes for this create a wilderness tip series, I had more free time but I didn't intentionally plan for rest. Rather than fully resting, which actually would have benefited me the most to move forward with more energy, I just have rested. I was tired but wasn't intentional about the rest. I was half working and half resting when I actually just needed to be fully resting. I learned from that experience to not half rest. If you're going to take time in the grove of rest, be intentional about it, fully lean into it and be present for it rather than feeling like you should be working or should be productive. Your work will still be there when you leave the grove of rest so just let it be and dive deep into that restful state. Use this to its fullest potential while you are there so that you can come back to your work even stronger, more energized, and with more creativity. To recap, my six main tips to be proactive and carve out time for frequent and intentional visits to the grove of rest are, one, identify the type of rest. Two, plan your rest ahead of time. Three, plan a consistent sleep schedule. Four, make a list of restful activities. Five, set intentional boundaries. Six, don't have rest. In the next lesson, I'm sharing a personal example of how I carved intentional time for the grove of rest throughout my creative wilderness journey using the tips that I've shared so that you can be inspired and see that it's not just a place to visit reactively and occasionally, but instead a place to visit proactively and frequently for more energy, stamina, and creativity on your path. I'll see you there. 7. Learn from a Personal Example: In this lesson, I'm sharing how I proactively and intentionally make time for the Grove of Rest on my own creative wilderness journey to inspire you to do the same on yours. As I mentioned before, intentionally planning for and spending time in the Grove of Rest is a continuous practice. To implement this practice, I constantly remind myself that rest is necessary for creativity to flourish and for me to show up as my best self business owner and creative business coach. I really remind myself that the creative wilderness journey is a marathon. It is a long term journey, not a sprint. It's a lifelong path that I want to be fully present and energized for. To do that, I need to make sure I intentionally spend time in the Grove of Rest frequently throughout my journey. To do this, I schedule different lengths of time to visit the Grove of Rest. I schedule shorter visits by doing a short meditation each morning, most mornings. I schedule medium visits to the Grove of Rest by taking daily time for physical exercise like running or strength training or yoga and evenings off to cook intentional nourishing meals. I schedule longer visits to the Grove of Rest by designating the weeks and I'll be away from my studio during the year for road trips or to visit family. I put all of these into visual time blocks in my calendar so I can clearly see that the visits to the Grove of Rest are scheduled and set ahead of time. This gives me peace of mind to know that my work is balanced with rest and my rest is fueling my work. By the way, if you want a more detailed explanation of time blocking and scheduling, you can visit my time management for creatives class, which you can find by navigating to my profile page and going to the Creative Business section. In addition to scheduling my visits to the Grove of Rest, I also keep my list of restful activities top-of-mind to use while I am in the grove, which include cooking, dancing, running, going to the local library, and taking a slow morning at my house with coffee and a book. All of these are things I know, fuel me, give me rest and rejuvenate me. I continue to revise and edit this restful list as I change and evolve as a person. Because I also recognized that there are seasons to our creative wilderness journey that shift and change over time and I really want to honor that. Having a consistent structure and intentional plan to visit the Grove of Rest is essential because life happens and things come up. There are going to be seasons where client work is more abundant than usual. There are going to be seasons where I work some evenings, and there are going to be seasons where I need to work some weekends to prep for a launch or a Skillshare class. Because there are going to be seasons that aren't as balanced or have more work, it makes scheduling intentional and frequent stop to the Grove of Rest all the more essential to have that stamina, creativity and energy for when those seasons do arrive. When you have a consistent system of scheduled rest, it can bring you through the busy seasons and ground you in the calm seasons. You know that your frequent visits to the Grove of Rest, no matter how long or short, are compounding and serving your longer-term creative wilderness journey as a whole. I hope this personal example of how I implement visits to the Grove of Rest, using the tips I've shared throughout this class, inspires you to do the same on your creative journey. Join me in the next lesson where you'll fill out your field guide and publish your class project. I'll see you there. 8. Publish Your Class Project: In this lesson, we're chatting about publishing your class project. Once you've completed this section of the creative wilderness, go ahead and take a photo of your completed grove of rest portion of the creative wilderness field guide. Then you can upload that photo to the class project section of this class. Remember that you can upload your class project by going to the projects and resources tab and clicking the "Create Project" button. Once you've uploaded your photo, be sure to hit Publish. Also be sure to check out other class projects from your fellow creatives in the project gallery. We're all out here in the wilderness together, so let's show support for each other's journeys. Lastly, be sure to let me know in the discussion section which type of rest you currently need on your creative wilderness journey and how you're making time for that rest this week. Join me in the next lesson where I'll share where we're headed next on this creative wilderness track. I'll see you there. 9. Thank You & Next Steps: Thank you so much for tuning into this class in the Creative Wilderness Tip Series. I really hope that you're feeling more equipped, confident, and totally stoked to keep trekking through the wilderness together.
