You have to cast a Restoration spell. The lesser restoration spell is a level 4 cleric spell. I believe you can also go to a temple and be restored as well. As you figured out, simply resting will not do it.
BTW, Welcome to the IW. We are glad to have you here. Drop over to the General Discussions sometimes and get better acquainted with everyone.
