The idea behind this card — Sabbath

You're allowed a sabbath from your own grief — an hour, an evening, a day. Rest was law long before productivity was.

TEND — The practices — sabbath, service, blessing, hope, vigil

…people sat with this card this month
…

The practice

declare one — out loud, with borders: 'From dinner until sleep, I am off duty.' Watch the show, take the nap, laugh if it comes. Sabbath was never something you earn. Take what's yours.

Where this idea comes from

  • Sabbath tradition — Abraham Joshua Heschel; dual process model — Stroebe and Schut
