Miranda Brooking

Rest Consultant & Founder

Miranda Brooking is a Rest Consultant and founder of Rest Uncovered, a business born from her lived experience with burnout and her deep commitment to our human need for restoration. Her journey into rest began during her own recovery, where she navigated the complexities of the medical system and the frustration of resting without feeling restored. Through a process of trial, error, and intuition, Miranda discovered that true rest is more than just sleep - it requires a personalized "rest map".
 
Early in her recovery, Miranda utilized Cognititve Behavior Therapy (CBT) and returned to her long-standing Yin Yoga practice, a deep part of her wellness since 2009, to ground herself and reconnect to her body. This path eventually led her to complete a Mindful Yin Yoga Teacher Training, providing her with a unique perspecitve on being comfortable withe uncomfortable. Her recovery was further supported by her study of nervous-system attuement, group dynamics, and the healing power of music through both local and online community circles.
 
A pivotal turning point occured when Miranda discovered the work of Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith. Testing this framework with her own lived insights led to the to the devlopment of The Rest Uncoverd Method. By identifying five distinct phases of rest and five specific ares of rest, she built a language and a map for those who feel lost in their own exhaustion.
 
What began as a single workshop for friends has grown into Rest Uncovered, a consultancy where Miranda offers the guidance and resources she wished she had during her own journey. Today, she guides clients to decode their body's signals and move from chronic depletion into a life of sustainable energy. As a writer, and consultant, Miranda is dedicated to proving that rest is a high-performance tool and a non-negotiable pillar of a balanced lfe.
