Missed a Day? Begin Again: Recovering From a Lapse Without Turning It Into a Verdict About Who You Are

The Gentle Return helps you use the lapse as information rather than identity. William R. Stanek guides you to examine what changed, adjust the design, and re-enter at a realistic level. You do not need a dramatic restart. You need a workable way back.
