Did you know that your brain detoxifies itself when you sleep? WOW!  

In today' s amazing Self Care Saturday Suite Spot episode, Dr. Derek Suite blends neuroscience with biblical wisdom to help us prioritize our recovery. 

Rest isn't a luxury but a biological necessity for peak mental performance and well-being. 

Ancient wisdom from Psalm 23 perfectly aligns with modern neuroscience about the brain's need for regular restoration.

KEY SUITE SPOTS: 

• Your brain has a "glymphatic system" that cleans out toxins while you sleep
• Without adequate rest, waste products accumulate, causing brain fog and irritability
• High-performing athletes prioritize structured recovery as essential to their success
• Even brief moments of rest can make a significant difference in mental clarity
• Rest is not earned through exhaustion but is a necessary fuel for optimal functioning
• Small actions like extra sleep, phone breaks, nature walks, or deep breathing can restore your mental energy


SUITE SPOT AFFIRMATION:

"Rest fuels me, stillness strengthens me, I choose restoration" reinforces the importance of self-care
