When talking about rest, the focus is usually on physical rest, some people go little further and talk about mental rest, however, there are other types of rests that an individual needs in order to be physically, emotionally, and mentally healthy. Apart from physical and mental rest, you also need emotional rest, social rest, spiritual rest and sensory rest.
Physical rest means you put your body in "not working" mode, you do nothing and lie on bed or chair relaxing. You also go to sleep or take a nap for physical rest. Mental rest means resting your mine by shutting out from unwanted thoughts, you get mental rest through hobbies, meditation, yoga, traveling, etc. Emotional rest means you take yourself from way from problematic relationships, you address your emotions. Social rest means you shut down yourself from social life so that you get time for self reflection. Engaging in spirituality also boosts mental health, so you need spiritual rest to explore your inner self. Last but not least you get sensory rest by shutting down yourself from mobile phones, gaming device, TV, etc.
