Highlights include:

We need true leisure now more than ever

How rest is different than entertainment

Training our gaze to be able to give full attention - even amid extreme tiredness

Being fully present to another is a holy moment

Our sisterhood with other women can help us restore ourselves

Attending a Well-Read Mom group is not an escape from reality but helps us to engage again

Engaging in authentic leisure benefits the wider culture

A place to unfold and receive

Pray for the friendships that we need
