In a world that tells Black women to keep pushing, keep grinding, and keep proving ourselves, rest can feel like an act of rebellion. But let’s be clear: Rest isn’t laziness—it’s a necessity.
As caregivers, leaders, and change-makers, we often put ourselves last. But how can we pour into others if our own cups are empty? Rest allows us to recharge, reflect, and show up as our best selves. Whether it’s taking five minutes to meditate, an hour to enjoy a quiet walk, or a weekend to disconnect, rest is radical self-love in action.
At BWA, we’re passionate about creating spaces where Black women can rest unapologetically. Whether it’s on the trail, at a retreat, or during a virtual sister circle, we’re here to remind you that your wellness matters.
Let’s make rest a priority—not just for today, but for the rest of our lives.
