Gentle : rest more, stress less, and live the life you actually want Cover Image Book

Gentle : rest more, stress less, and live the life you actually want / Courtney Carver.

Carver, Courtney, (author.).

Summary:

"Grounded in self-compassion and a fierce commitment to less, becoming the gentle you isn't about taking the easy road. It's a practice of real self-care that, over time, will soothe your nervous system and strengthen your relationships. Organized into three parts--Rest, Less, and Rise--30 challenges and simple practices will help [you] radically and (yes) gently shift [your] pace, headspace, and heart. It's time to find strength in your softness, fierceness in your flexibility, and to finally rise--not by pushing through but by connecting with the gentle you, standing in your light and honoring the person you are"-- Provided by publisher.
