This event is part of our 12 Days of Peace virtual event series.

This conversation-based workshop will be a brief exploration of the history of Sabbath and how the spiritual practice has turned into a Medical Necessity. Be prepared to hear about how we have rested throughout history and how practicing Sabbath benefits peace-building efforts. We will work on establishing three ways to establish Sabbath in our everyday lives.
