The name Batah comes from the Hebrew word meaning 'resting so that strength can come back to you'. The Batah Foundation, a registered charity, hopes to be an antidote to what we now call the 'long hours culture'. The foundation is dedicated to helping people under pressure, to rest and re-evaluate their lives and goals. Its breaks provide a week of rest and recuperation with time to stand back and take stock.
