Sleepy Sunday

This was a sleepy Sunday for me.

“We must believe we are worthy of rest.” — Tricia Hersey, Rest Is Resistance: A Manifesto.

I just happened across this quote about rest, and the more I read, the more interested I am in the whole idea of Rest as Resistance. Sleep is so vital. When you’re juggling a lot, it’s okay to rest. Her page thenapministry.com says

“Just as the North Star guided the enslaved on their journeys to freedom, visionary artist and founder of The Nap Ministry Tricia Hersey leads us to imagine a new world: one in which we subvert the narrative of productivity at all costs and embrace rest as a healing spiritual practice.”

Have you had a nap lately? Not one when you happen to fall asleep but an intentional midday nap.

Jayne is a writer. On her free time she likes to be with her family hiking outdoors and traveling. New England is her home and place of birth. When asked what she wants to teach the world she replied, "Don't stop searching. Too many times, in my old life, I put my search aside for more 'important matters.' I didn't realize the thing I was searching for held what was most important; my soul purpose." Jayne works daily on improving her craft and at times can get down on herself, but her favorite morning mantra is "It's a new day." and that's what she strives to start with.
