Online Rest Hour

休 means ‘to rest’. Rest, is the basic ingredient in all approaches to wellness. To deeply rest and restore is a skill lost and forgotten as we traverse and hustle through our modern busy lives. To rest is to allow yourself to be in the space of no-thing-ness.Through our programmes such as forest therapy (forest bathing or shinrin yoku) and yoga nidra, we invite you to rest. We invite you to re-connect. We invite you to rise.From our regular forest bathing walks to yoga nidra workshops to customised rest programs, we are committed to promoting 'a good life' across all ages and communities in Singapore.Private or customised nature connection programmes are available and are suitable for wellness, coaching as well as corporate retreats.Join us to rest for our mental, emotional and physical wellbeing.

休 XIU NATURE CONNECTIONS

It's time to transit from our daily hustle to daily hush. Rest. Immerse in different rest practices in these online experiential classes.

We can understand rest, but how many of us really get rest?The Rest Hour is a series of online mini classes to support you in receiving the different types of rest that your body may need. We are all build differently, and not everyone needs more sleep to feel well-rested (know of someone who is always exhausted even after more sleep?). So the key thing is: what kind of tired are you, and what kind of rest do you need?Taking our learning from Daring to Rest (Karen Brody) and Sacred Rest (Saundra Dalton-Smith), we will explore physical rest, mental rest, emotional rest, creative rest, spiritual rest, sensory rest, and social rest. The focus, though, is on the practices and the experiences. Some of the practices include gentle movements, breathing exercises, elements of forest bathing and yoga nidra exercises.Rest is a felt-sense. This is a space to learn, experience and feel rest in the comfort of your home. Less talk, more rest; uplifting one another from rest.Classes are perfect for you if you are:+ feeling stressed, having mild anxiety, or not sleeping well in these challenging times+ wanting to learn how to rest better+ curious about the different types of rest and which one(s) you may need more+ longing to experience being more rested, calmer and uplifted+ seeking some gentle social connections despite physical distancing.
