You Don’t Have to Hustle to Heal: Permission to Rest After Narcissistic Abuse

healingjourney narcissist narcissistabuserecovery narcissistabusesurvivor Oct 21, 2025

 Many of us were taught to measure our worth by how much we do, how much we give, or how much we endure. Rest was seen as weakness, laziness, or failure.

But exhaustion is not failure. It is your body asking for compassion.

This week’s meditation, You Don’t Have to Hustle to Heal, is a soft reminder that rest is not something you earn. It is something that already belongs to you.

 In this 20-minute meditation, you’ll be guided to:
– Lay down the burden of hustle
– Meet your body with tenderness and ease
– Rest into affirmations of worth and compassion

You are allowed to rest.
You don’t have to hustle to heal.

And so you are.
You are not broken.
And you are not alone.
