We know that rest and recovery are critical for dancer performance and overall health.

However. One of the biggest barriers to giving ourselves (and our students) time to rest and recover, is a belief that we have to earn our time off, or that we’re not worthy of taking time off.

We think we have to check all the things off our to do lists before we rest, or that we have to sweat really hard in that workout to earn a recovery. But that’s simply not true.

This Self-Worth Walk combines positive affirmations to reframe unhelpful thoughts you may have about being worthy of rest with the active recovery of a walk. Plug in your headphones and get outside to reset, refresh, and tune into your innate worth.
