Being Gentle is about being grounded in self-compassion and a fierce commitment to less—becoming the Gentle You isn’t about taking the easy road. Organized into three parts—Rest, Less, and Rise—Courtney Carver’s Gentle provides simple challenges and practices that will help readers radically and gently shift their pace, headspace, and heart.
Becoming the Gentle You is a practice of real self-care that, over time, will soothe your nervous system and strengthen your relationships.
Gentle is the “don’t do it all” self-help book that promotes less stress and more joy by standing in your light and honoring the person you are.
