THE ANCIENT WISDOM OF YOGA ARTFULLY WOVEN INTO MODERN LIFE

Rest and Renew 5-Day Free Course

An invitation into the heart of rest and the ground of being. 

Rest is your birthright. 

 

 

Rest is a rebellious and revolutionary act

 

This FREE course is a movement towards moving from doing to being.

 

Towards disrupting the systems that keep us exhausted and tapped out spiritually, emotionally, and physically. I'm a beginner on the journey towards rest and honored to walk this path with you. 

Our excessive doing, our drive to produce at the expense of our wellbeing and health is anchored in toxic systems that value production over human life.

Systems that teach us that our body and value is determined by how much material profit we produce.
Systems that deny our inherent nobility and worth.

Our denial of rest to the point of illness and collapse is anchored in the philosopher René Descartes' separation of mind and body and the industrial revolution that treats the body as a machine rather than the altar of life and a gift to be celebrated.

I'm all about working hard. But not the way we're doing it.  Not in the way I've been doing it if I'm honest.

I am no longer working hard FOR my self worth.

Working hard has to come FROM self love and for our collective healing and liberation.

We are taught that EVERY moment should be geared towards material profit.

We are taught that every movement of our body should be towards this same symbolic end. Proof of our efforts. Proof of our success.

It's dehumanizing. It's perhaps the greatest lie of our times.

Doing is for being.

Rest is a divine birthright.

Rest is preservation and the only way to our collective wellbeing.

And I am making the decision finally after all of this time to follow the lead of luminaries like Octavia Raheem to undo these systems in myself and to support the rest and wellbeing of those around me. 

I have a lot to unlearn. And this course is the first steps of my own journey with deeper rest.
