Gentle Words; From shared words to a shared book
Gentle Words began as short reflections shared on social media in 2024. Simple, compassionate posts offered during moments when people were struggling, pausing, or just needing reassurance.
The response was overwhelming. Messages came in from people saying the words helped them feel less alone, more understood, and gently supported during difficult times. Many asked for a way to keep the words close, to return to them when needed.
From that response, the book was created.
About the book
Gentle Words is a collection of thoughtful, accessible reflections designed to offer comfort, encouragement, and space to breathe. It can be dipped into at any point. There’s no right place to start and no pressure to read it in any way.
The book is still available and continues to reach people who benefit from quiet, supportive words.
