Description
Written by minimalism expert and celebrated author Courtney Carver, Gentle is the “don’t do it all” self-help book you need to live with less stress and more ease, less overwhelm and more joy by uncovering the Gentle You.
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 readers radically and (yes) gently shift their 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.
Advance Praise
"If you want to live more intentionally and feel liberated in your life, Gentle can help guide you there. This is a beautiful call in for us all."
Alexandra Elle, New York Times Bestselling Author of How We Heal
"Gentle will shift your assumptions about what it takes to live a ‘successful’ life. Rejecting the old rules of hustle culture, this book is an invitation into real self-care that goes way beyond face masks and bubble baths. The simple practices laid out in each chapter are the permission slip we all need to stop measuring ourselves by our accomplishments, instead trusting ourselves and embracing a rhythm that frees us to actually enjoy our lives.”
Camille Styles, Editor-in-Chief of camillestyles.com
"Courtney's honest and relatable storytelling, combined with practical steps and heartfelt wisdom, makes Gentle a must-read for anyone feeling overwhelmed by the demands of modern life. Her message of prioritizing rest, letting go of unnecessary burdens, and rising with renewed purpose is not only empowering but also incredibly achievable. This book is a treasure for those looking to reclaim their time, energy, and peace.”
Dawn Madsen, The Minimal Mom
"Courtney’s beautiful book is the antidote to hustle culture and a must-read for anyone who feels too stressed and busy to enjoy the people and things that matter to them. With practical guidance and tiny steps to implement at the end of each chapter, Gentle can help you ease your way into a more peaceful life, with increased vitality, presence, and joy."
Lori Deschene, founder of Tiny Buddha
"If you need to free yourself from the grind, this book will show you the way. With her signature grace and compassion, Courtney offers one tiny step after another to a gentler, slower, kinder way of life—culminating in a book that feels more like self-release than self-help."
Erica Layne, founder of The Life On Purpose Movement
