Overwhelmed by the world around you?

RESTED LIFE

MENTORSHIP

Learn to rest + thrive as a highly-sensitive introvert.

Are you a highly-sensitive introvert?

Does this sound familiar?

You struggle with sensory overload:

✓Sensitivity to bright lights, loud noises or negative energy.

✓Feeling emotionally drained after being in crowds

✓Needing more down time than others

This sensitivity can create challenges in your personal relationships...

✓ Explaining your needs for quiet, rest, or transition time to your partner or family
✓ Burning out on being social
✓ Feeling drained after spending time with certain people, especially those with negative energy

Your body may be sending signals that it needs support...

✓Feeling stressed or always “on alert”

✓Difficulty sleeping or “wired & tired”

✓Digestive Issues

✓Blood sugar crashes or needing frequent snacks

✓Weight gain due to stress

WHAT IF THERE WAS A BETTER WAY?

RESTED LIFE
was designed for you.

It’s a 6-month mentorship to help you step out of sensory exhaustion and claim a rested life.

I created The Rested Life based on my training with Karen Brody in The Rested Path™.

Your 6-Month Journey

In 12 mentoring sessions, you’ll experience deep rest AND learn embodied practices to help you make rested decisions that break the cycle of fatigue in your life. Each session is a spacious 90 minutes, combining Yoga Nidra and rest mentoring.

The program is structured in three phases:

Phase 1: Rested Body
Give your body physical rest so you can see clearly.

✓ Tend to your physical exhaustion with Yoga Nidra for the Rest phase.

✓ Slow down and calm your nervous system.

✓ Explore your relationship to rest.

✓ Experience inspirational guidance woven into your Nidra about taking sacred pauses.

✓ Receive Yoga Nidra recordings and short rest practices for home use between sessions.

Phase 2: Rested Voice
Find your intuitive voice and speak your truth.

✓ Tend to your mental and emotional exhaustion with Daring to Rest Yoga Nidra for the Release phase.

✓ Create a rest altar that supports you and your lineage.

✓ Practice holding opposites around relationships that feel unrested and find your rested voice.

✓ Learn to support your inner child with inner mothering.

Phase 3: Rested Action
Make decisions that are aligned with the rested life you want to live.

✓ Tend to your soul-level, life purpose exhaustion with Daring to Rest Yoga Nidra for the Rise phase.

✓ Explore what's rested and not rested in your daily life.

✓ Identify what kinds of rest you need most.

✓ Learn to use your body as a pendulum to sense yes, no, and "Do I have energy for this?"

✓ Learn to make decisions from a well-rested place using embodied practices that guide you to a more rested tomorrow.

A rested life doesn’t just happen. We have to plan for it.

-Karen Brody, Founder of Daring to Rest

By the end of 6 months, you will:

✓ Deepen your relationship with your intuition AND speak your truth to others.

Hi, I’m Hester.  

I come from a long line of highly-sensitive women.

And I was raised in a culture of rest.

As a little girl, I remember my mother & grandmother resting. My grandmother loved creating rest nests all over her home and my mom still takes care not to book her schedule beyond her capacity. Their example taught me to nap, read, and dream.

I later rediscovered rest as an exhausted 35-year old health coach, yes an exhausted health coach! Me and my clients were all too exhausted to make lifestyle changes. That’s when I became a Certified Daring to Rest Coach & Yoga Nidra Facilitator trained in The Rested Path.

This isn't just another program. It's a deeply personal journey guided by someone who truly understands.

Mentoring with me includes:

✓ My full presence: I see a limited number of clients so I can practice Yoga Nidra personally and show up for you as my rested self

✓ Customized rest prescriptions based on my training and ancestral rest wisdom from my mother and grandmother

✓ A spot for you on my rest altar so I can support your intentions

✓ Responsive communication to your emails between sessions

The coach-client relationship is important to your rest journey. If we find during your free consultation that we’re not a mutual fit, I will offer you contact info for my rest colleagues or other healers who might be more compatible.

More love notes

  • I felt held by Hester. I could feel her genuine care for me and passion for rest. Most importantly for me, I felt the freedom to make modifications that best supported me. That is huge for me, and I cannot overstate how that was the most important foundation of me being able to truly rest.

    GABRIELLE

  • Hester listens to your requests and accommodates them so well. Rest is such a necessity that we refuse to acknowledge. Hester makes it easy. I’m so glad she shares her gift with us.

    CASEY

  • I loved how cozy and safe I felt and how you gave me explicit instruction that there was nothing I needed to do - I needed to hear that, to be given permission to do nothing and just rest.

    SARAH

  • I learned that I can rest. Yoga Nidra helps you rest in moments that can be a lot or heavy. It's something that actually allows you to shut off your mind.

FAQs

  • What sets rest coaching apart from practices like massage therapy, acupuncture, or reflexology (all of which I love and recommend!) is that you’re not only receiving rest, you’re learning:

    • How to identify what in your life is keeping you in the cycle of fatigue.

    • How to set rest boundaries that support your thriving as a highly-sensitive empath.

    • How to use embodied decision-making practices that lead to a more well-rested tomorrow.

  • Sessions are currently available Tues-Fri 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Eastern time. Check availability prior to purchasing at: https://hesterkohlwellness.as.me/
