Rest is not only restorative—it connects you to your inner wisdom and is a portal to revelation. That's the theme of a new book, Rest Is Sacred: Reclaiming Our Brilliance Through the Practice of Stillness, by Octavia Raheem, who joins Tracee Stanley, author of Radiant Rest and The Luminous Self, for a conversation about rest as a deep spiritual practice. In this conversation, they discuss:

• What inspired Octavia to write Rest Is Sacred
• Powerful lessons around distraction
• Rest as a form of protection and nourishment
• How rest connects us to our dreaming selves
• Much more!
