Imogen would like to share the following quote:
to rest is not self-indulgent,
to rest is to prepare to give the best of ourselves
– David Whyte –
This comes from poet/philosopher David Whyte’s writing on ‘REST’ from his book, CONSOLATIONS: The Solace, Nourishment and Underlying Meaning of Everyday Words. https://davidwhyte.com/collections/books/products/consolations-revised-edition
