Description
“Our greatest hope to thrive and disrupt is to rest deeply and intentionally. The rest is the work. It is how the portal for liberation and a reckoning will emerge and remain open. May the portal of rest be our refuge. May we go there often.” -Tricia Hersey Rest is Resistance.
Join us for a restorative retreat exploring rest as a sacred practice. Through guided meditation, gentle movement, journaling, and community sharing, we will deepen our awareness and cultivate rest as a form of resistance. Inspired by Tricia Hersey, this is an invitation to collectively slow down, reconnect, and engage our imagination as we welcome a way of being that embraces deep care and rest as our divine human right. The path to a well world begins with a well-rested resistance. We will Rest!
Intention of the Hive
When you join a Hive experience, you're invited into our intention to create a group experience that's inclusive, rooted in mindfulness, and dynamically relational. We aspire for each Hive experience to model these intentions, and even to refine them as we continue to learn how to gather in a way that's transformative! The embodiment of these intentions by Hive facilitators, Members, and class participants is what makes the Hive the unique and healing social container that many experience it to be.
