#AdventRest today looks like not getting the mobile office out in the train home to do the school run, and reading instead.

#AdventRest today was a half an hour pause and breathing exercise. It was meant to be ten minutes. It... was not. But that's the point of taking the rest, really.

If you've missed the #AdventRest challenge and fancy giving it a go, here it is from @jovanevery.bsky.social.
I have an advent challenge for exhausted academics.
Take time each day to rest.
If 5 minutes is a challenge for you, then start there. I challenge you to take 20 minutes. You can work up to it.
Use a timer so you don't worry about how long it's been.
You can do this badly. Please try.

Various kinds of barriers make it difficult for me to get to church, most of the time, so… Nine Lessons and Carols in a local country church #TinyJoys #AdventRest

Instead of rushing home from teaching and throwing myself into working on my (still incomplete) article (that’s due in just over a week), I am having a cup of tea and recovering from a few hours of intense, if enjoyable, social interaction. Also there is a cat. #AdventRest today, write tomorrow.

...maybe we should do a proper #AdventRest hashtag and everything because I would like to do this very much also.

So, following up on Jo's challenge and using @naomijacobs.bsky.social's hashtag - my #AdventRest today was settling with a cup of tea and @revrachelmann.bsky.social's Advent book for ten minutes after lunch rather than trying to squeeze marking in before a meeting.

I think it was @jovanevery.bsky.social who was encouraging #AdventRest for academics (possibly?) Working on it!
