The Nap Ministry also strives to create a safe space for people who are struggling to process traumatic events such as mass shootings and racism. Naps, Hersey said, help people to heal from that trauma and can empower them to find ways to fight social injustice.
Hersey founded the organization in 2016 and hosts monthly napping events in Atlanta. She also hosts a series of pop-up nap sessions in Chicago, her hometown, each year in July. This weekend she led a nap event at a women's retreat in Colorado.
