"When we reconnect to the wisdom of Life

we can recognize Rest as essential not only

to our own well being but to the wellness of the

environment on which we depend, and of which

we are an inextricable part.

It is in this place of rest, when we release

our habitual ways and recalibrate with the

harmonies of nature that we can create a space

for something new and replenishing to emerge."

~Shelley Ostroff
