The REST Technique: Simple, Effective Meditation For The Busy Mind

An Outside-the-Box Meditation Course for Busy People Like You with Jill Wener, MD

When was the last time you thought:

  • "My mind is definitely too active to meditate"?

  • "I need a better work-life balance (but I'm too busy to drive to a meditation class)"?

  • "I'm tired of feeling stressed, and I wish I had more energy to go with the flow"?

  • "I wish I was less reactive with my kids"?

  • "I'm a terrible sleeper, and I'm so anxious and depressed"?

  • "I'm so busy taking care of everyone else that I've been neglecting my own self-care"?

  • "I've tried (and failed) at mindfulness meditation practices, and meditation just doesn't work for me"?

  • "I'm happy enough in my career, but I really want to take it to the next level"?

  • "I'm tired of 'waiting for the next step' of my life (or career) to find happiness"?

  • "I'm ready to make real change in my life, and willing to do what it takes to get it"?

If so, then The REST Technique is for you.
This outside-the box meditation course
can help you:

Rewire Your Body's Stress Response

 Neutralize the effects of cortisol and adrenaline from your near-constant survival mode. Increase production of serotonin, dopamine, DHEA-S, and endogenous opioids.

Be There For Your Family, Friends and Colleagues

Reconnect with your compassion and empathy, your friends, family, co-workers, and yourself. Stay present while navigating the hectic demands of your everyday life.

Increase Your Energy and Creativity

Increase energy and creativity to come up with impactful solutions to improve the world around you. Get more done in less time. Improve digestion and immune function, leading to less sick days and more energy.

Get Better Sleep

Improve your sleep and catch up on years (decades!) of chronic sleep deprivation. How? The REST Technique is even more restful than sleep.

Master an Easy-to-Learn
Meditation Technique

'The REST Technique' is absolutely simple and can be learned by anyone, even (especially) someone who believes they are too stressed or high-strung to meditate.

Become Less Reactive

Become less reactive in high-stakes situations. Be more easily adaptable to changes and setbacks. Maximize your ‘Adaptation Energy’.

"Jill is so passionate about meditation and her energy is contagious! She's an excellent teacher and has an easy-going style that makes it fun. I meditate on the train to and from work and the results have been pretty dramatic. My anxiety and stress levels have decreased so much. I am more patient with my kids and don't get rattled by things going wrong like I used to. I was even told by my boss that I am 'very even-keeled'."

What is the REST Technique™?

The REST Technique is a powerful, easy to do meditation practice that Dr. Jill Wener has adapted from her internationally-renowned live Conscious Health Meditation Course. It's unlike any other type of meditation you've tried before.

  • Because it maximizes the 'stay and play' function of the parasympathetic nervous system, the REST Technique accesses a uniquely restful state that is even more restful than sleep.

  • You'll always sit comfortably, with your back supported.

  • The mind has thoughts, just like the heart beats, so you will never be asked to clear your mind or control your thoughts!

  • You'll learn to become a self-sufficient meditator, without reliance on guided meditation recordings or apps.

  • You'll learn how to easily fit the meditation into your busy life, and it'll make you so efficient that you'll get the time back (and then some!).

  • The meditations are pleasant and easy-to-do, and you'll start noticing benefits quickly (there's NO SUFFERING in the REST Technique!).

"I highly recommend the REST Technique course. I've attended other meditation education, and nothing ever "stuck" for me. I found it too frustrating and/or uncomfortable. I've already begun seeing positive influences of the practice. I have more patience with my son (more adaptation energy) and my health has improved."

Dr. Jill Wener
A nationally-renowned expert in physician wellness, Jill has published several articles on KevinMD, led physician wellness programs around the country, and lectured at the national level on stress and the benefits of meditation and tapping. She has been interviewed on multiple TV and radio shows as well as podcasts (in the medical community and beyond).

In addition to her online and in-person meditation and tapping programs, Jill is a best-selling author, the host of the Conscious Anti-Racism podcast, and an ICF-certified personal and professional coach.

Jill strongly believes that there is no 'quick fix'; no singular technique can address all of the physical and emotional challenges of today's society. When she discovered tapping at a conference for women physicians in 2017 and began using it herself, she was amazed at how well it complemented her meditation practice and helped her to let go of long-held limiting beliefs.

What does REST stand for?

The REST Technique is so effective because it maximizes parasympathetic activity and minimizes sympathetic activity, and in doing so, it is even more restful than sleep. The REST acronym emphasizes the deep rest you will achieve during your meditation, and is an intimate part of the technique that you will learn in the course.

What's the difference between this course and 'Meditation for Doctors: A Guide to the REST Technique'?

The content for 'Meditation for Doctors: A Guide to the REST Technique' is geared towards physicians' (and other clinicians') understanding of some health issues and physiology. It is also accredited for continuing education credits for doctors, nurses, PA's, NP's, occupational and physical therapists, nutritionists, and social workers.

The meditation technique, however, applies to people of all professions and backgrounds! The doctor-specific course was so popular and effective that we kept getting requests to adapt the course for non-physicians. 'The REST Technique: Simple, Effective Meditation For The Busy Mind' is our answer to those requests. And it was designed with YOU in mind.
