When was the last time you asked your body how it's doing and really listened to the answer? Today's read guides us toward rest, recovery, and ultimately, greater resilience.
"One of the primary lessons we can learn from elite athletes is not that we need to train harder or do more. It’s that rest and recovery are embedded into their training. It’s not separate from the work but rather the reason why they are able to show up in an optimal state, day after day."
As the weather cools, we're ready to hit the trails, take in the changing leaves, and squeeze in one last camping trip.

From Stephanie Fallon, Contributing Editor
"I tested Solawave’s Wrinkle Retreat Pro LED Face Mask and their Neck & Chest Pro Mask for the last six months to see how regular use would affect my fine lines, uneven skin tone, and redness. With just three minutes for each treatment, incorporating the mask into my nightly routine was easy — and the results speak for themselves. While it doesn’t eliminate my redness completely, I could see a visible improvement when I stuck with my routine." [Read my review]
One reader's well-loved wellness practice:
"The wellness practice I'm so thankful for these days is regular yoga I've done for years now. I'm 57 and as I've aged, stability, flexibility, balance, mobility, and feeling connected to my body have become so much more important to me than exercise that makes me look sculpted or skinny. I'm able to do the things I want to do, and easily still at that! 🩷" - DB
