In my own journey to discover what it means to rest, I stumbled across Sacred Rest, the book by Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith. I've taken principles from her work and combined it with my training and experience as a Retreat Facilitator and Spiritual Director to create a life-giving course that will teach you about rest, but more importantly will show you how to counter-balance your rest deficits with rejuvenating exercises.
