People who think others would fake chronic illness have a very short-sighted sense of what it is like.
Yes, the first week of radical rest is a relief after over-working & over-exerting. (Everyone should rest more. Look up the #NapMinistry!)
But then, rest gets boring fast. Especially if you need cognitive AND physical rest.
There are a lot of people with post-viral illnesses who can’t watch a movie in one sitting, it’s too much exertion & stimulus. A lot of us are bedbound. #MillionsMissing
My stay in Villach turned out to be wonderful :) I’ve napped a lot; the weather improved significantly: sunny & warm till 8PM; my hotel was a small #spa resort on the #lake - with swans! & view of #mountains! So I’ve fed the #swans this morning (radish leaves & “napolitanke”) ! & made it to the #train! Thanks #OEBB ! #InterRail #rest #day #vacation #NapMinistry
We keep each other warm … #CatsOfMastodon #NapMinistry

@Julie And another leader in the Rest is Resistance movement is #TriciaHersey of the #NapMinistry. I havent read her book yet, but i've been following her for a few years and she is amazing.

Here for #stories #music #poetry #art #history #philosophy & all the other crap that leads the escape (or traps us?).

@DaNanner It's newish, just out this past fall. I only new about it because I followed the author's #NapMinistry account on Twitter. I just finished it and it is hecking eye-opening. She frames the issue as political--originating in capitalism, white supremacy, patriarchy, ableism >> grind culture. When we rest we're striking, refusing to be owned (literally, if you're Black)/exploited--and *that's" why it's so hard. Not an individual psychological issue but political, racial, gendered etc.
Any followers of #NapMinistry able to share specific ideas or concepts that moved you?

Has anyone read #TriciaHersey's new book, "REST IS RESISTANCE: A MANIFESTO?"

I'm a huge fan of the #NapMinistry but unsure of how to put the principles into practice while I'm in #gradschool
This.
I breathed with the thingie and now I feel calmer and also I want an apple.
Stop #doomscrolling! We know this election season is a lot 😥 We can't be in the work of justice for the long haul if we don't take time to rest. Take a moment to breathe with us 😌 #JustBreathe #TakeABreath #BreathWork #Rest #NapMinistry
