Octavia Raheem, is a mother, online business owner, author, and life partner (wife) who prioritizes rest for her and my family despite the sometimes hectic pace of life. She has taught rest, restorative yoga, and Yoga Nidra for 10 years. She self published my first book, Gather, and it focuses on courage, rest, and connecting to your Ancestors. Her second book: Pause, Rest, Be: stillness practices for courage in times of change is now available!

One of her greatest joys is supporting high achieving and driven people in resting AT WORK. Some of her clients are Lululemon, The Highland Project, KIPP, and Civic Lab.

She believes we all need, deserve, and require more rest- especially now. Books on her nightstand:
