Sometimes, it’s on gentle thing.
One cup of tea in silence.
One deep breath before you answer the next text.
One moment to put your hand on your heart and whisper, “I am doing my best.”

What Is a Gentle Thing?
A gentle thing is a small, doable, and rooted in kindness towards yourself.
It’s not a task – it’s a soft invitation.

  • Light a candle
  • Stretch your arms and neck at your desk
  • Step outside for five minutes of sunlight
  • Write down one thing you’re proud of
  • Let yourself rest without guilt

But those pauses are where your nervous system resets.
Where your mind softens.
Where your healing begins.

Just meet yourself with kindness, however that looks today.
