Rest

Mindfulness Tools, Sleep Strategies, and Nervous System Care

If you’ve ever tried to sleep with pelvic pain or woken up more exhausted than when you went to bed, you’re not alone. Endometriosis and pelvic pain can wreak havoc on your nervous system and sleep—especially around surgery. But rest is essential for healing. And we don’t just mean sleep.

At Matilda, we treat rest as an active part of recovery—one that supports your body, calms your mind, and helps reset your nervous system.

That’s why our Rest pillar includes:

• Mindfulness and breathwork tools to ease anxiety and reduce pain

• Nervous system education so you understand why rest matters (and how to access it)

• Gentle pacing tools to help you balance activity and downtime during recovery

Pain and endometriosis often puts your nervous system on high alert—like the body’s internal alarm going off all the time. Our approach helps dial that alarm down, restore a sense of safety, and give your body the space it needs to do its best healing work.
