Why Breaks Heal More Than You Think

From Sydney to Broome, I was reminded why breaks, both daily pauses and longer holidays, are vital for balance and emotional health. Simple moments like reading in the sun, whale watching, chatting with strangers, or sleeping in can restore energy, calm your nervous system, and bring clarity. Taking time out isn’t lazy, it’s essential.

In kinesiology, we know your body and mind thrive when you honour both action and rest. This blog shares my holiday experiences as a reminder to slow down, reconnect, and restore flow because the best version of you comes alive when you choose to pause and honour the Yin and Yang.
