Transformation requires rest.

Hi friends, 

This week, I've been returning to the words of author, yoga teacher, and activist Octavia Raheem, whose writing on rest is both insightful and inspiring. In her book, Pause, Rest, Be: Stillness Practices for Courage in Times of Change, Octavia writes, "transformation requires rest. Stop trying to level up on fumes." That last sentence blows me away every time. How can something so intuitive be so easily ignored as we get caught up in our day-to-day routines?

Rest is essential to growth, change, and lasting transformation. It's as simple (and as complicated!) as that. 

So how will you prioritize and embrace rest in the coming days? Hit reply to respond and I'll see you back here next Sunday.
