Description

In a world that glorifies busyness, what if rest is actually the most faithful thing you can do?

In this final episode of our Slowing Down series on The Do Gooders Podcast, Christin Thieme talks with Alyson Pryor—marriage and family therapist, spiritual director and author of the forthcoming book “Come Away and Rest: A Guide to Personal Spiritual Retreats.”

With wisdom drawn from her own story of burnout as a mom of five and her work guiding ministry leaders, Alyson offers practical steps for creating space for silence, solitude and rest right where you are.
