Rest is Not Dessert. It's the Damn Meal

Hey Adventurer,

Here’s a myth we need to slay: the idea that rest is some fancy dessert you earn only after you've cleared your plate of productivity.


Nope. Rest isn't a reward; it's literally maintenance.


Think about it this way. Would you expect your trusty sword to stay sharp if you never sharpened it? Would your wizard keep casting powerful spells without meditation and mana recovery?


Exactly.


Rest is sharpening your sword. It’s refilling your spell slots. It's the maintenance that keeps you functional.


Without rest, eventually, there's just NOTHING left to give. You deserve rest…even if your To Do list is packed full.


Your Chaotic Good Challenge​ This week, proudly commit to one delicious act of rest. Here's a couple options:


Take a Rest Break: Schedule it like an important meeting with your inner healer. Maybe it’s a nap, maybe it’s a leisurely walk, or maybe it’s zoning out to your favorite anime.


Roll for Rest: Feeling stuck? Roll a D6 (six-sided die). Each number corresponds to a type of restful break. Let fate remind you that maintenance matters!

  1. Nest up (get cozy & watch something you love with something you love)

  2. Stretch

  3. Walk Outside

  4. Tea & Quiet Time

  5. Mindless Fun (anime, gaming, comics)

  6. Literally just lay on the floor (trust me, it works)


Your adventure can’t continue without proper maintenance.


Rest well, roll often,

Autumn
