The Job of Resting With Carly Taylor

This week's Mojo Monday looks at rest, and why so many of us have forgotten how to actually do it. Drawing on the concept of Yojo from Morita Therapy, Carly explores the idea that rest isn't something you earn after burnout, it's part of the treatment itself. We unpack why scrolling isn't rest even though it's where most of our downtime goes, what real rest actually looks like in a busy week and why switching off matters more than the activity itself. If you're constantly "on duty" with no one to relieve the shift, this one's for you.

Carly is a counsellor and coach who specialises in building psychological hardiness, which is the ability to navigate challenge, stay engaged, and take meaningful action under pressure. Her work integrates modern psychology with Eastern and Stoic approaches, helping people build resilience, live with purpose, and respond to life’s challenges with greater clarity, courage and steadiness.
