This feels tender and wonderful to share...

Hey lovely Reader

Earlier this year something drew me back to the tiny notes of love in the series of everyday compassion emails.

272 messages, requested weekly by over 600 people. I remember being so nervous when I first started sharing them over two years ago - and then so honoured by the love they received.

“

I’m loving the everyday compassion. They bring a smile to my face and I look forward to receiving them.

I had always imagined they might one day become a book. But I didn’t know what form it might take.

So I waited.

Then, back in February, the way became clear. And I knew in my heart how it needed to look and feel.

Slowly, slowly I began. Designing. Editing. And writing another 94 messages... to create 365 days of ordinary kindness (plus one extra for leap years).

A daily devotional, someone called it. A contemplative guide said another. Niblets of joy shared a third. Perhaps it's all three?

“

It’s so easy to get caught up in the grind of life and these emails are a daily reminder to take a moment to step back, and reflect on what’s really important.

I’ve felt the meaning of each one of these tiny notes. And writing this book helped me during a very difficult time - just as I know the emails have helped others along the way.

“

Something about your words brought tears to my eyes, on this raw & tender morning for me.

Of course, when we create something and send it out into the world, we have to allow it to take on a life of its own. And, simultaneously, we want to hold it close, because it feels such a precious thing.

So, as I share these words with you, under the light of this beautiful full moon, I ask you to join me in wishing this little book well.

And.

If you would like to be able to turn each day to a tiny note, filled with love then I would be so honoured to send you a copy. There is a link below where you can pre-order - with an added little gift from me - ready for publication in September.

Thank you for reading. Sending so much love
