We move in solidarity with the initiative's goal to create pathways for Black Womxn to access rest, care & support.
We support this new action created by 25 Black Women In Beauty ( @25_bwb ) which calls for a National Day Of Rest for Black femmes.
For 10 years, Black Dream Escape as been offering thought-pathways, events and rest services to Black and Indigenous people.
As a partner with the Opportunity Fund's Respite for Black Womxn Initiative, we'll offer a special session on March 10th from 11a - 2pm at our studio in Pgh, PA . #Blacksky
Here. Have a moment.
Stop & feel the world around you.
It's okay.

How are you attending to your rest routines? What needs to change? What is working?
Just remember, change is always. #Blacksky #BlackRest #BlackHealth
You are never alone.
Please remember: moss takes a really long time to grow. So, please be gentle with it.
Join us for a Skillshare Saturday during our open hours from 2-5 PM. Let's expand our knowledge together as we share ways divination leads us to living more rested & aligned lives. Do you have a form of divination that works for you? Come share & rest with us. 5530 Penn Ave. 15206
Put the rumble tumble world down for a moment. Settle & soothe yourself. Listen for your inner music. It's going to be okay. Ask the ancestors.
Commune.
Allow yourself to play. Allow yourself moments of joy. Allow yourself to connect.
It is not your singular responsibility to heal the world. #Blacksky
We do not have to be made dizzy and depleted by the state of the world. We do not have to live in a state of perpetual unrest.
Every Saturday, we hold space for your rest at our Rest Space. Even if you can't join us in person, know that rest for Black & Indigenous people is happening. #Blacksky
Part of creating a better world is the ability to dream.
You are never alone.
There is medicine everywhere.

Take a break with us. For good or bad - things are always changing. Always. & you can rest.
Making music with our friends the rain clouds at @garfieldfarm . It's so lovely to make lullabies for the resting garden
Stretch. Yawn. Sigh. That was delicious. Did you have a good social media fast? We did.
Thanks to everyone who joined us at the Rest Space during the fast. That was so delightful. We were so happy to be with you.
But, right now. Thanks for taking a moment to harmonize with nature with us.
Rest is now the work.
In the upcoming days, allow yourself to play. Allow yourself to find moments of joy. Allow yourself liberty.
Allow yourself moments of relaxed & meaningful connection - with nature, with friends, with your family and community.
