Welcome to The Rested Black Women Newsletter

Hello Beautiful Soul,

I'm so glad you're here.

This space is still taking shape—just like me. As I've been nurturing this newsletter, I've realized something powerful: rest, much like life, is a journey. And journeys are rarely linear or perfect.

If you've ever felt overwhelmed, stretched too thin, or disconnected from what you need most, know that you're not alone. I’ve been right there with you. That's why I've created this space—not as a polished, finished product but as an evolving invitation. Together, we'll delve into the world of rest, healing, and the art of slowing down.

Here’s what you can expect:

  • Reflections and Stories: My personal journey with rest and the lessons I’ve learned (and am still learning).

  • Practices for Rest: Simple, accessible practices to help you pause, breathe, and reconnect with yourself and ease into more rest, even on your busiest days.

  • A Soft Invitation: To build community here with me. Let's discover together what making space for more rest in our lives could look like. It will be a journey we take together.

Final Thoughts: "Rest does more than restore our bodies—it transforms us, connecting deeply to the divine power within." This belief is at the heart of why I write to you and share this journey. More than finding peace in sleep, it’s about awakening to our truest potential through the restorative power of rest.

I’m thrilled to share this space with you—and I hope it feels like walking through an open door to something beautiful and necessary. Whether you're here for inspiration, support, or just a quiet pause, you belong.

Let's take this journey together, one breath, one moment, and one discovery at a time.

With care, Tecca

I created The Rested Black Woman as a space for Black women to explore and reclaim the transformative power of rest. This newsletter is a gentle invitation to embrace rest in all its complexity and simplicity.
