Take a Nap!
"We believe rest is a form of resistance and name sleep deprivation as a racial and social justice issue." - The Nap Ministry
Rev. Tricia Hersey founded The Nap Ministry in 2016 to explore the liberating power of naps. The framework of "Rest as Resistance" has resulted in powerful performance art, site-specific installations and community organizing to install sacred and safe spaces for the community to rest together. This “Nap Anthem” emerged out of resonance with this project. We hope you enjoy this catchy tune and feel called to rest your body!
Heart Tip
What is your relationship with naps and rest? Do you embrace it or resist it? Does it feel like something that must be earned or something that we all deserve? Is rest something "other people" can do, but not you? We invite you to consider all these things … and then, maybe take a nap. ;)
