Description
Moving through the world without force, effort, and struggle goes against what modern society teaches most of us to believe. Emmie Rae of The Daily Rest Studio (TDR Studio) specializes in helping people embrace doing less to bring more ease into their lives and businesses. Today, Emmie shares her philosophy of rest, which includes yoga, writing, nature, human design, and one that I personally struggle with, doing nothing.
If you’re working to integrate more rest into your daily life, Emmie suggests using your wellness tools most days to remove the rigid pressure of being perfect. Challenge yourself not to take in any stimulus for at least 5 minutes. The challenge of these “do nothing” practices is that we don’t get the dopamine hits that our brains crave. By releasing the grip of control, you truly work smarter and not harder in all areas of life. Emmie shares her process of working according to her energy and exactly where on the human design chart to look for structure versus non-structure insight.
As entrepreneurs, sometimes we need reminding that we created our businesses to give ourselves more freedom in life. Emmie and I discuss how the planets correspond with the days of the week and why knowing them matters. Being sensitive to these subtle energies and subtle energy in general is a superpower. To be sensitive means you have the power to alchemize your feelings into your work.
Emmie’s approach to business resonates with me so deeply. She runs a soft business, one without a strategy, customer avatars, or the marketing-speak we’ve been told we need to adopt. The key to making these choices is knowing yourself. Then you know what works best, and you’re able to be open with your team. We wrap up by discussing Emmie’s relationship with Tokyo and what life is like in her adopted city. Emmie is a genuine beacon of light, reminding us to trust our way and to trust that the parts of us deliver messages. This life is all on purpose.
