Grounded in self-compassion and a fierce commitment to less, becoming the Gentle You isn\u2019t about taking the easy road. It\u2019s a practice of real self-care that, over time, will soothe your nervous system and strengthen your relationships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rejecting the old rules of hustle culture, this book is an invitation into real<\/em> 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.\u201d<\/p>\n\"CamilleCamille Styles, Editor-in-Chief of camillestyles.com<\/strong><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
