Wake up!
I have endless gratitude for the following sources of inspiration and ideas throughout this work. I encourage you to peruse them out of order - use the questions to the left of each resource to guide you to the topic you're the most curious about.
How do I invite a loved one or child to embrace radical rest?
How is rest a form of reparations and liberation for oppressed peoples?
​
Give this episode of the Raising Rebels podcast a listen. It's an interview with Tricia Hersey, the Nap Bishop, about how oppressed parents can raise free children through rest.
I just can't imagine a world where I am able to truly, deeply rest. It feels hopeless. How do I even try?
​
Read this essay by science fiction author Octavia Butler, titled "A Few Rules for Predicting the Future."
Help! I can't reach a restful state of mind. Is there a guided entry into the dimension of rest?
​
Plug in some headphones, close your eyes, and listen to this guided meditation by the Nap Bishop, Tricia Hersey. In her words: "May this rest meditation activate and pull you deep into the portal of rest."
How do I find the time to make rest a regular part of my life?
How do I reach a more sustainable relationship with time?

Pick up a copy of Time Management for Mortals at your local library or bookstore. The title is deceiving - it is not another treatise on how to extract the most productivity out of every drop of your life. It's a deeply human examination of what makes life joyful and how we can reclaim time dedicated to that joy.
