Why? Because we believe rest is important, and it won’t happen by accident! For the past few years we have chosen to pause our business operations for a week at the end of May. It’s our small & practical revolt against the pace and intensity of non-stop work in our culture. Our team of organizers and admin team work tirelessly throughout the year to serve folks and help others dwell with such joy. So, this is our attempt at practicing rest and prioritizing a pause. We invite you to do this with us, in whatever way you can.

A few disclaimers about rest:

It might not come easily - yet it is still worth fighting for.
You will likely need to plan + prepare for this - anything worth while takes attention + intention.
It might be uncomfortable - challenge yourself not to rush through it.
People around you might not understand it - and that’s ok.
You might have nothing to “show” for it - yet your soul will likely be lighter and refreshed.
Your body truly needs it - our culture wants us to ignore our physical needs.
It sets a great example for others - and it is an act of rebellion against society.
