Play Lab overview
practical shit that you can use and incorporate for your daily life, but not before you experiment and tweak it to work for you!
Intellectual property and account sharing
These are creation I’ve put in time and effort to acquire knowledge, information, and experience to put together. I request you not to share account log in because I prefer to know who have access to my resources.
IF you know someone who will benefit from this but for financial reasons he/she/them is unable to afford the cost of exchange, reach out to me! I may consider gifting it to him/her/them.
This can be tracked with IP address etc, but I won’t be policing this. I trust that you will act with respect to my time and what I am offering. Accounts will be suspended (with no refunds) with immediate effect if found to be doing so.

Intention & Context
Objective + Why
- Used to struggle with “rest”
- Then I became very ok and was enabling people to do that
- Clients start asking me “how”
- People are getting it is important but are struggling with it
Perimeters + Limitations
- This mini workshop may be scraping the surface for some
- Does not consider deeper issue / trauma
- Some will require to dive deeper and decondition on top of this
Guidelines & Suggestions
- Go slow – don’t be tricked by “Oh I know this!”. Many of these in here are simple ideas, but big when it comes to executing.
- Have your own journal for reflections
- Adopt them into your life, if needed, in your own ways – I offer what I know had worked but it is more important you make it work for you
1. Refusal to rest is our own shit
Experimentation: Acknowledgment and Acceptance
our own shit to need to control and do everything..
to feel important..
to feel our worth..
to feel our value.
so be honest with yourself and own that shit. and it might become louder as we go through the workshop.
2. Fuck guilty
guilt arises after we do something “bad”.
and good people feel guilty if we do something bad.
“bad” people don’t feel guilty, right?
eg.
mum guilt is the desire to be seen as a good mum.
boss guilt is the desire to be seen as a good boss.
so, this is normal. most people want to be seen as a good person.
but what is interesting is that we feel guilty resting.
and that means, we think that resting is “bad”.
which doesn’t make sense right?
so i’m going to invite you to shift out of it.
imagine a life without you to do all the things you do, what then happens?
if you are a mum, a boss, a leader..
and you are not there.. then what happens?
if you are in charge of taking care of the household, or anything.
and you are not there.. then what happens?
if it appears that no one else will do it, it is good news!
or if it appears that someone else will do it, it is good news too!
if it appears that no one else will do it..
it is even more important that you rest and be taken care of so you can continue to do it.
if it appears that someone else will do it..
then it means, someone can actually share the damn load. so let it be shared!
3. Tune in with body
guided process: rate your tiredness
what is the rest you need?
extreme end, rest or no rest
how long do you need?
don’t set a long duration. i don’t suggest that you get too serious with this but instead check in often for a particular day or in that moment.
4. Learn your resting pattern
start learning your resting pattern and what is your optimal rest
for a start, keep a journal if you need.
then when you get the hang of it, you will be able to identify what you need faster.
5. Conditional rest
many of us like to have conditions to resting.
eg. if i do this, if i finish this, then i will rest.
rest then now becomes like a reward.
and if we don’t do or finish something, we get punished and shouldn’t rest.
when i put it as it is this way, it sounds ridiculous right?
but because we need to be practical, we have things to get done. so we will continue to have conditions ok, just a different way to do it.
so, i want you to list your “conditions” that you have set.
but chances are, most of us don’t remember because these are not hard rules. we set it according to what we need to get done that day, how much stress we experiencing etc.
but for sure, i guarantee you.
a lot of these conditions are unrealistic.
majority of the people set unrealistic to do lists.
if you realised, we are conditioned to give priority to getting things done.
for 45 mins of “work”, we sometimes give 15 mins of rest. and during that 15 mins, we even cheat it by reading the news, researching things.. you know, things that are productive.
So here's what i am inviting you to do. the next time you set conditions for your rest..
cut the condition by half
increase the rest duration by double
of cos this is a guide. you want to adjust it along the way to find your optimal.
Cheat code: Intentional rest!
find a safe space
get into a comfortable position.
set a 5 – 10 mins timer.
then close your eyes. experience the tiredness in your body.
where is it at?
sink deeper into it.
