Between making time for work, family, friends, exercise, chores,
shopping—the list goes on and on—it can feel like a huge
accomplishment to just take a few minutes to read a book or watch
TV before bed. All that busyness can lead to poor sleep quality
when we finally do get to put our heads down. How does our
relationship with rest impact our ability to gain real benefits
from it? And how can we use our free time to rest in a culture that
often moralizes rest as laziness? Alex Soojung-Kim Pang, the author
of several books on rest and director of global programs at 4 Day
Week Global, explains what rest is and how anyone can get started
doing it more effectively. Write to us at
