I'm taking my own advice and choosing rest 💜

Right now my priority is my health, so I’ll be stepping back for a while. Thank you so much for your kind words and support with AndRest. It really means the world.

I hope to be back as soon as possible, but this is the reality of living with ME/CFS; listening to your body, slowing down, and making space to heal.

Until then, rest well and take care of you too 🌿

But then the pressures of life said otherwise 😅.

This is your gentle reminder…

Rest isn’t a reward, it’s a right.

You deserve a moment that’s just for you.

👉🏾 Follow for your daily reminder to rest.

Reminder - let rest do what rest does best.

At AndRest , we don’t just tolerate restfulness, we honour it.

Because sometimes, the most productive thing you can do…

…is absolutely nothing.

So this weekend, consider this your official permission slip to:

✅ Skip the gym
✅ Light a candle
✅ Take that nap
✅ Leave that message on read

Whether you live with chronic illness or you’re just plain tired, you deserve a moment (or a day) to not hustle.

Meet Darren — the founder of

What started as a personal journey through chronic illness has grown into a brand that celebrates what the world often overlooks…

REST

Darren lives with ME.

Some days, even getting out of bed is a triumph. But in that stillness, he found something powerful — the reminder that rest isn’t lazy, it’s necessary. 🌿

So he built And Rest, a space (and a shop) for anyone who’s ever felt burnt out, run down, or just in need of some peace.

Candles, mugs, bath salts… not just products, but gentle invitations to pause. 🕯

This is for the rest-lovers. The ones who know that slowing down is sometimes the bravest thing you can do.

🤍 You belong here.

Weighted. Hot or cold. And magically designed to make your entire nervous system go…. Ahhhhhh 😌

Our eye mask isn’t just cute — it’s a rest ritual in disguise.

✅ The weight
✅ The heat
✅ The cold

Whether you’re battling chronic illness, screen fatigue, or just need 10 quiet minutes to pretend you’ve got your life together — this is your go-to.

Lay back. Mask on. World off.

Calm. Something I absolutely have... on the outside.

Inside?
Full Beyoncé-in-a-hurricane energy. 🤪🌪️

But hey, I lit a candle and made tea, so at least I look emotionally stable 😌.

Sometimes the vibe is chaos — but we can make it cosy.

How can a lump of salt help you?

Turns out, in quite a lot of ways — especially if your body is asking for more rest than most.

This isn’t just any lump of salt — it’s a Himalayan salt lamp.

And for those living with ME or other light-sensitive conditions, it’s essential to create a space that supports rest and recovery.

💡 Because when life is challenging, even the smallest comforts make a big difference.

This is my Friday night out. 🕯️📖☕

No crowds, no queues — just a candle, a good book, and a warm cup of tea.

Sorted.
