FIND OUT IN OUR RESTLAB 101 CLASS
...and who exactly is this for?
You are brilliant. That's just a fact. Your ideas and your heart sparkle. But you've got a little secret.
Underneath that smile, is exhaustion. You can't seem to "do it all" anymore. Behind that to-do list is a deep desire to just take a break. Though people are accustomed to your yes, you've been thinking a lot lately about your no.
RestLab 101 was created for you. When you're incredibly productive, strong, kind, and making sh*t happen, people perceive you as superhuman -- but you aren't. The problem is you've been going 100 mph for so long you've forgotten how to slow down.
Or maybe you're afraid to slow down. Maybe it feels like you can't. Maybe it feels like a punishment to pause. But the pause is the point. You're human. Rest is how you learn to remind yourself and others of your dazzling humanity. If you've ever wanted a gentle entry to rest, this is for you.
This 90 minute class is designed to get you to understand some of the missing pieces to the puzzle of "how do I rest?" You'll learn the key foundational concepts of rest, our rest method, and how to put it all together into a practice that works for you.
We teach rest as a skill with different components that we want to build upon. This class is meant to be an introduction to help you reflect on what rest looks like in your life.
It was designed from over four years of experience coaching bleeding hearts across industries: non-profit, small business, tech, events, mental health, arts, medicine, and more.
Let us help you build a life that feels like a life again. Let us help you build a better normal.

Rest
Discover the eight keys to getting better rest.
-
Focus
Leave with a clear understanding of the agency you have over your energy, attention, and time.

-
Calm
Experience intentional sensory rest to help you feel relaxed enough to continue resting after the class.
You're struggling with three major things right now:
💖 you're overstimulated
💖 you're overcommitted
💖 you're overwhelmed
We've intentionally designed this container to take you from overstimulated to calm, over committed to clear, and overwhelmed to present. How?
Our class is broken into three segments: your rest, your keys, and your blocks.
In Your Rest we build a foundational understanding of what rest actually is.
In Your Keys we help you get present to the life you have right now and give you the practical techniques you need to get better rest.
In Your Blocks we help you clarify the changes you need to make to maintain the rest you want.
You'll leave with a plug-in rest formula worksheet to guide you turning better rest into a practice and habit you can maintain.
Each section includes reflection prompts as well. See the schedule below for a broader overview.
Get a sense of how your class will flow with this timeline.

OPENING
Welcome & Calming Exercise
We open with a comforting transition into our time together, a tech overview of best practices, a quick overview of what we'll be learning, and then a calming exercise to prepare us for class.
-
FIRST HALF
Your Rest & Your Keys
Then we transition into the meat of our time together. We lay the framework with foundational concepts about rest to help you better understand how things work together. Then we start with the first four keys to better rest. We'll take a brief break after a few reflection prompts.
-
SECOND HALF
Your Keys (cont'd) & Your Blocks
We return and learn the last four keys to better rest. Then we start on the next section, understanding what's getting in the way of your rest in the blocks section. We end this section with reflection prompts.
-
CLOSING
Review & Breathing Exercise
We do a quick review of what you learned, give you instructions for your worksheet, and close with a calming exercise so you can continue to rest after class.
Reclaim your energy, attention, and time. It's time to get your life back.
[I realized] just how much rest I was actually getting without it being restorative. Understanding and incorporating different types of rest has been the #1 most helpful thing for me.
We have a pretty simple pricing philosophy. We recognize that bleeding hearts come from a multitude of experiences and circumstances. We want to make rest accessible, so we've added what we call "bleeding heart rates" to RestLab 101 and RestLab Hibernator.
This scale helps us provide services at a fraction of the cost for some of our most vulnerable community members. The value of this class is $150 but we offer three tiers of pricing. If you're paying the highest rate, you aren't receiving a discount, but you're helping cover the costs for those who need it.
We trust that you'll make the right choice for you.
If you experience any of the following, consider paying this price:
You can't regularly meet your needs
_______________
You can't access financial support
_______________
You have expenses or challenges related to immigration status, racialized identity, disability, gender-affirming care, incarceration, houselessness, job loss, disaster, or food insecurity
If you experience any of the following, consider paying this price:
You regularly meet your basic needs
_______________
You financially support others
_______________
You can afford to take time off
This rate still offers a discount from our $150 value and helps us make sure our most vulnerable community members can still access rest and rest support from us.
If you experience any of the following, consider paying this price:
You have expendable income
_______________
You have generational wealth
_______________
You own land or property
Thank you! This helps us defray the cost of the heartstring and heartwarm rates. This makes our work accessible to all those who need rest in our community.
*If heartstring is not feasible right now, and you'd like to attend, fill out this one minute form.
We can't wait to welcome you to RestLab 101!
Once you've completed your purchase, you'll be redirected to the registration page. Make sure to register for the class and we'll take care of the rest!
Don't Just Take Our Word For It...They Think It's Dope Too!

"She leads this work with empathetic warmth and humor for us to shatter the oppressive systems we've grown accustomed to and prioritize our well being. Thank you, Jordan! Rest has never been at the forefront of my mind as it is now."
Daniela VillaRamos, Once Upon a Vow
JORDAN MANEY, THE RADICAL JOY COACH™
Real talk -- I've been exactly where you are. TIRED. Wondering if my vision and dream is for me. Exhausted from overworking and not setting boundaries. TIRED. Feeling like you can't ask anyone for help while being the first in line to help everyone else. TIRED.
Then, in 2019 I decided I was going to do things differently. I implemented the boundaries I needed to be the best at my work -- things like four-day work weeks, taking a month-long sabbatical every year, building structures of communication and scheduling that worked for me instead of against me.
Now, I help bleeding hearts aka progressive changemakers in need of boundaries, learn to advocate for themselves and their communities through the practice of rest.
Let me help you too. 💖
