Mindrest: The Art of Doing Absolutely Nothing
Why Your Sleep Isn’t Making You Less Tired
You might sleep 8 hours and still wake up exhausted. Why? Because physical sleep is only one type of rest. We also need Mental Rest—the ability to turn off the constant stream of data, responsibilities, and “what-ifs.” Scrolling through social media isn’t rest; it’s high-speed information processing. The Ahoxy Mindrest tool is designed to stop the noise and give your brain a true “power nap” while awake.

About the Test
The MindRest Burnout Assessment is a scientifically-backed tool designed to help individuals identify and understand their burnout levels. Based on the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) and Copenhagen Burnout Inventory (CBI), our test measures the three key dimensions of burnout:
Exhaustion
Physical and emotional depletion
Cynicism
Negative or detached attitude toward work
Reduced Efficacy
Feelings of incompetence and lack of achievement
The Pillars of True Rest:
- Sensory Deprivation: Minimizing visual and cognitive inputs allows your brain’s “salience network” to relax.
- The Non-Goal State: Entering a state where you aren’t trying to achieve anything, solve anything, or finish anything. This quietness is the fertile ground for new ideas.
- Autonomic Re-balancing: Mindrest moves you out of your sympathetic nervous system and into your parasympathetic system, promoting cellular repair and lower inflammation.
How to Practice Mindrest:
- The 2-Minute Rule: You don’t need an hour. Two minutes of pure, undisturbed focus on the Mindrest guide can reset your nervous system.
- Visual Anchoring: Use the minimalist elements on the screen as an anchor. When your mind wanders toward your to-do list, gently bring it back to the screen.
- Integration: Use Mindrest after a stressful meeting or before starting a deep-work session to “clear the cache” of your mind.
