Let Us Rest is a podcast about the power of slowing down. Rest is a necessary but often overlooked part of life. This platform will explore our relationships with rest from our earliest memories of being put to bed to our current relaxation rituals. We will examine barriers to rest and how they can be surmounted both individually and systemically. Join us LIVE every Thursday at 2:00 PST on @ laura.edmondson's Instagram to be part of the conversation!
