While sharing thought leadership and knowledge is important, the mission of the REBEL + REST (R+R) Rejuvenation Zone is to provide a customized social media unplug space to encourage mental wellness. The Zone will offer a storytelling seminar aimed to assistance attendees in learning how to document their stories as process for reconciliation and healing; breathing exercises that promote mindfulness; a reading nook with books from important voices of color in social justice, self-care; and other rejuvenating activities. We hope the REBEL + REST Rejuvenation Zone will activate new understanding and practices for attendees throughout SXSW and into their daily lives, while also providing opportunity to connect and build community.
