“Rest is revolutionary.” ✨

You don’t need to earn your rest or explain your exhaustion. As Latham Thomas reminds us, — your well-being matters, just as you are.

At SBNC, we believe that rest is health care — and caring for yourself is a radical act in a world that often tells you to keep pushing.
Let’s honor rest, protect our peace, and support one another in healing.



----------------------------
“El descanso es revolucionario.” ✨

No necesitas ganarte el descanso ni justificar tu agotamiento. Como nos recuerda Lathan Thomas, — tu bienestar importa, tal como eres.

En SBNC creemos que el descanso es cuidado de la salud, y cuidarse a uno mismo es un acto radical en un mundo que a menudo te dice que sigas esforzándote.
Honremos el descanso, protejamos nuestra paz y soportemos unos a otros en la sanaciĂłn.
