Exhausted; anxiety-ridden; over-worked and under-resourced. Yet the ‘solution’ cannot possibly lie in self-care, yoga retreats or the odd massage when this bone-numbing fatigue is a symptom of a desperately unhealthy society. We cannot simply ‘fix ourselves’ under a system that demands and takes so much of us. What is needed is a complete reimagining that puts a thriving life of abundance first and foremost.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThrough a Black Feminist, abolitionist and nature-allied lens, Evie Muir takes us on a journey of regeneration that reimagines what a world of true rest – radical rest – would look like, how that would feel. As they look to activists and cultural influences past and present for guidance, Evie explores the core emotions associated with burnout: moving from rage, grief and anxiety to the hope, joy and plenty that deep change can bring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlong the way, Evie speaks with those who have been disproportionately impacted by, and working in resistance to, burnout – Black, queer, disabled activists of colour. And what becomes clear as we hear about these lived experiences is that a world of radical rest must exist in community – with one another, with our bodies, and with the natural world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBold, vulnerable and deeply honest, Radical Rest is a blueprint for change and a salve for the soul.
