One of the books I have been enjoying this summer is Rest: Why You Get More Done When You Work Less by Alex Soojung-Kim Pang. It is a scientific exploration of why rest is important, both in the establishing and sustaining of our creative lives. In this episode of Getting Work To Work, I talk about recovery, rest, and share eight ways you can refuel your creative life.
