Welcome to Rested
A Deep Rest Sanctuary for Women Ready to Reclaim Their Power
You are invited to step out of exhaustion and into a space designed to nourish your body, calm your mind, and awaken your inner wisdom. Rested is a sacred online community for women who crave stillness, healing, and the courage to live differently.
Led by Karen Brody, author of Daring to Rest: Reclaim Your Power with Yoga Nidra Rest Meditation.
This is your invitation to become a Rested Woman — and help heal the world by first restoring yourself.
In a world that pulls you in every direction, this is your invitation to return to yourself — to tap into an unshakable inner calm, your personal rest GPS, and navigate life from a place of grounded clarity.
Rested - A Sacred Space to Rest Deeply and Rise Powerfully
Dear Rest Friend,
For years, I dreamed of a space where women could come together to feel deeply nourished, supported, and — most of all — rested. Six years ago, I brought that vision to life. It's called Rested, and it's a sanctuary for women who are ready to pause, heal, and remember their power.
If you’ve landed here, you might be asking yourself: Is this for me?
So let me ask you this:
How often do you whisper to yourself, “I just need space for me”?
We live in a world that demands so much of women. We're taught to give endlessly, to be everything for everyone, to push through exhaustion as if it's noble. But deep down, we know the truth: that path leads to burnout, resentment, and disconnection from ourselves.
Now layer on global grief, toxic systems, rising burnout, and the relentless noise of a world that undervalues the feminine — and it becomes painfully clear:
We need a place to restore. To revive. To rest.
Think of Rested as your modern-day well — the kind Marion Woodman spoke of, the inner wild Clarissa Pinkola Estés wrote about, the body-revolution V (formerly Eve Ensler) declared. It’s not a luxury. It’s a necessity. I call it the tone of rest — and right now, it’s the medicine we all need.
This is the moment to root into something deeper.
To stop pouring from an empty cup.
To become the first in your family line — perhaps — to break the cycle of exhaustion.
Rested is that place.
A soft landing. A bold rebellion. A sacred rest-yes to yourself.
Inside the Rested community, you’ll receive monthly live sessions that include:
✨ Yoga Nidra — the most powerful deep rest practice I know
✨ Silent meditation
✨ Writing + Reflection
✨ Listening circles and soul nourishment
Everything is optional. Everything is replayable.
There’s also a rich library of rest practices for whenever you need them.
You don’t have to do this alone. In a world of noise and unrest, we rise best together.
If you feel it in your bones that it’s time…
If your body is whispering “Yes, please”…
Then grab a blanket, fluff your pillows, and come lie down with us.
This is your invitation to become a Rested Woman.
With deep care and rest,
Karen
Founder, Daring to Rest
“I have finally learned to say, and mean, I AM A RESTED WOMAN. This has been life-changing for me, my children, and my relationships with everyone.”

What Rested members have to say…
“ I love it that Rested is part of a women’s rest revolution!”
“Our monthly rest circles are very, very nourishing. This group of women resting together and sharing has been a lifesaver for me! Karen’s presence and guidance is incredibly special and I am so grateful for Rested.”
“Before joining Rested I felt very alone, vulnerable to shaming for being too ‘woo’ or having ‘crazy’ ideas...like desiring a slower more restful life instead of one ruled by a ‘bigger better faster more’ achievement-orientated mindset. Thanks Karen for being such a wonderful rest advocate and guide in our non-rest-positive world. Rested has opened my eyes in so many ways - lying down to wake up, indeed!”

Yoga nidra is a transformational sleep practice and state of consciousness that is deeply restorative. All you do is lie (or sit) down, listen to a voice guiding you, and do nothing.
It has been said that 30 minutes of yoga nidra feels like 3-4 hours of sleep in your body.
Women in our Rested Community have called yoga nidra “life changing.”
It’s the deepest rest we know.
