Rest Is Sacred: Reclaiming Our Brilliance Through the Practice of Stillness - Octavia F. Raheem

Descriere Rest Is Sacred: Reclaiming Our Brilliance Through the Practice of Stillness - Octavia F. Raheem

Concise, potent, poetic messages of inspiration, direction, and encouragement for you to embrace rest and reflection as a deep spiritual practice. \nIn this compelling follow-up to her popular book, Pause, Rest, Be, Octavia Raheem offers succinct, gem-like teachings that invite us to find ways to embrace rest in our daily lives. Rest, she posits, is not only restorative--it connects you to your inner wisdom and is a portal to revelation. Raheem urges us to consider rest as a spiritual practice and to find ways to weave it into the busyness of our everyday life. In this way, she says, we can more fully rise to the occasion of our life. \n \nRaheem uses personal reflection, and creative, evocative sutras (or, just as aptly, aphorisms, threads, psalms, or proverbs) and inquiry to guide us toward a more well-rested present and future. The forty sutras fall into three categories: \n\n \n- Rest as a place of refuge from the storms of life \n- Rest as a place to remember who you are \n- Rest as a place of revelation \nEach page of Rest is Sacred invites the reader into seeing rest as a contemplative practice and a way of life--and to reflect on our relationship to grind culture. The sutras are concise, potent, and inspiring and can be read in a moment, contemplated, or lingered over. Raheem offers the view that the most sustainable future available to us is a well-rested one, and that rest isn't a luxury--it is a necessary spiritual practice that is available to us all.
