Personally I'd love the gift of genuinely restful sleep. But with several chronic illnesses and disabilities, that's a tough ask even for a magic man decked out in red velvet. Next best thing? Rest related items from a small business that understands! Obviously.
I know rest isn't always feel-good and wholesome. It doesn't always help, and it isn't always easy. I get it. It's complex. So whether you're a nap lover, a nap hater, or simply a nap haver, I reckon I've got something for you.
Whether you're looking for a gift for someone with chronic fatigue or chronic illness, or your mate just happens to love a good snooze, here's a small sample of what's on offer.
There's over 50 products in my shop that specifically reference resting. When I say I take napping seriously, I mean that shi-. Click here to have a browse through the shop.
Rest Counts
Do you ever feel guilty for resting? Rest can be productive too, but you don't have to view it as that for it to count either. Rest can simply be rest and it still holds value.
"Rest counts" is available on A3, A4 and A5 recycled paper art prints, stickers and t-shirts on the shop.
Handle With Care, I'm Sleepy, Okay?
Everyone's "best" is going to vary day to day. That's allowed! Some days are just extra sleepy.
"Please handle with care I'm sleepy okay?" is available on A3, A4 and A5 recycled paper art prints, stickers, tote bags and tshirts on the shop.
Get Up And Go (Back To Bed)
Some days are a "get up and go back to bed" kind of a day, and that's allowed too! It can be hard not to feel frustrated, but you're not in it on your own.
"Get up and go back to bed" is available available on A3, A4 and A5 recycled paper art prints and tshirts on the shop.
Tomorrow is a new day! It sounds exhausting already
What do we mean we have to do it all again tomorrow? And the day after that too? Goodness me.
"Tomorrow is a new day! It sounds exhausting already" is available on A3, A4 and A5 recycled paper art prints, stickers, tote bags and tshirts on the shop.
Still Tired
Ever feel like people forget the "chronic" part of chronic illness? That these symptoms aren't going away? 15 years later and yes, I'm Still Tired.
"Still Tired" is available on A3, A4 and A5 recycled paper art prints, stickers, tote bags and tshirts on the shop.
I would link you some more stuff, there's plenty more to choose from, but I actually really do need a nap after writing this up. So feel free to browse the shop at your leisure!
