Rest Is Resistance

Rest is resistance in a culture that equates productivity with worth. - (Tricia Hersey)

In a world that constantly tells us to do more, be more, achieve more, choosing to rest becomes a revolutionary act.

Rest is resistance.

Today, give yourself permission to slow down without guilt. Your worth isn't tied to your to-do list.

Rest isn't laziness—it's wisdom. It's understanding that sustainable momentum requires intentional pauses. When we honor our need for rest, we're not just caring for ourselves; we're challenging a system that profits from our exhaustion.

This Saturday, practice some gentle resistance. Take that nap. Sit in stillness. Let your mind wander. Your future self will thank you for the gift of rest you give today.
