# isResting

A Boolean value that indicates whether the physics body is at rest.

## Declaration

```swift
var isResting: Bool { get }
```

## Discussion

Discussion This property’s default value is false, but SceneKit’s physics simulation may automatically set it to true if the body is not moving and not affected by any forces. A resting body does not participate in the simulation until another body collides with it or you change its position or velocity or apply a force to it.
