The Art of Rest
At Devon Duvets, we believe that rest is more than just sleep – it is also a way of living.
The Art of Rest is a project I’ve been quietly working on. It is a book written in slow chapters, released monthly, exploring what it really means to pause, breathe, and reconnect with ourselves.
It isn’t a product. It’s a personal offering.
Each chapter weaves together stories, reflections, and gentle reminders - about nature, stillness, healing and the quiet power of rest. It’s part memoir, part meditation, and part invitation to move through life more softly.
If you’ve ever felt the pull to slow down or the ache of constant busyness, this is for you.
You can read along at your own pace, one chapter at a time. No rush. No pressure. Just space to rest - in words, in thought, in feeling.
Thank you for being here.

We’ve been taught to see rest as a reward - something earned, not essential. But what if rest is the starting point, not the finish line? This first chapter of The Art of Rest gently takes a look at the cultural myths around busyness and explores how we can reconnect with natural rhythms of rest, stillness, and renewal. Through simple daily rituals and a quietly powerful story about a traveller and a river, this is an invitation to stop chasing and start listening.
