Although we are all too familiar with the negative consequences of stress and multiple responsibilities, rest and relaxation still receive far too little attention in our hectic world. Nicola Jane Hobbs dispels the myth that relaxation is lazy and selfish. Because deliberate rest and personal space are essential for women to reach their full potential and live fulfilling lives. In six steps, she outlines a new path for women to recharge and care for themselves and others. Her book is an invitation to slow down. It is a call to action so that relaxation and rest become an integral part of our lives. It is an opportunity to free ourselves from stress and toxic productivity, to break down patriarchal norms, and to transform the way we live, love, and work.
