As a global pandemic shuttered schools across the country in 2020, parents found themselves thrust into the role of teacher — in more ways than one.

The #MeToo movement brought worldwide attention to sexual violence, but while the media focused on the fates of a few notorious predators who were put on trial, we heard far less about the outcomes of those trials for the survivors of their abuse. The conventional retributive process fails to serve most survivors; it was never designed for them. Renowned trauma expert Judith L. Herman argues that the first step toward a better form of justice is simply to ask survivors what would make things as right as possible for them.

By founder and creator of The Nap Ministry, Rest Is Resistance is a call-to-action for anyone suffering from the toxic urgency of modern-day life. It centres around the systemic issues that cause us to overwork, and ultimately burn out, and offers us liberation through rest.

Slowing down moves us away from trying to operate at machine levels of productivity, to make us all more human.
