Rest as Resistance

Part of the 's , this presentation by Dr. Dilys Brooks, Chaplain, is a transformative workshop designed for mental health professionals who consistently prioritize their clients' well-being while neglecting their own need for deep restoration and renewal. Through an experiential exploration of rest as a radical act of self-preservation, participants will examine how systemic pressures and professional demands create barriers to authentic rest, particularly for clinicians from marginalized communities. The workshop equips mental health professionals with evidence-based strategies to reclaim rest as essential to their clinical sustainability, professional longevity, and personal well-being, moving beyond surface-level self-care to embrace rest as a fundamental right and necessity.

The Spiritual Integration Hour's intended audience is the Loma Linda University community of behavioral health clinicians and scholars, and is broadly centered on the integration of faith/religion/spirituality and the social sciences. It is a mix of presentation and discussion, and is sponsored by the School of Behavioral Health.
