NOURISH GENTLY: A Soulistry Cookbook

NOURISH GENTLY: A Soulistry Cookbook


These are difficult days. We need to gently nourish our bodies, minds and souls – even more so than usual.
This is an invitation to do that.


A bit of background: decades ago, I self-published a specialty cookbook. It sold well in the US, Canada, Australia, UK … and publication expenses were met. A number of years ago, I received unexpected emails from people who had discovered the book and wanted to know if it was still available. Sadly, nope. But, I had a few copies, so sent those people a complimentary copy. I didn’t think much about it – until recently …

It’s become clear that hunger and poverty issues are escalating, and for many, about to get even worse. I wondered what I could do. I decided to republish the book with a different title (“Nourish Gently: The Soulistry Cookbook”) and do it for free. So I began to type —- and type —- and type … (hopefully there are not too many typos that didn’t get caught). 🙂

“Nourish Gently: A Soulistry Cookbook” is now ready to download, to use, to share for free. No need to sign anything. No need to give any personal information. No need to pay anything. It’s a gift and can be downloaded here: https://soulistry.com/books

You are welcome to pass on the link to others. Hopefully, an unexpected gift of “Gently Nourish” will put a smile on faces and in some small way, help in these difficult times.


Btw, the book is both cookbook and story. As cookbook, recipes are free-from additives, preservatives, refined sugar, chocolate, and also offers recipe suggestions for salicylate-substitution along with a whole lot of unexpected extras. Nourish Gently also tells a personal story which hopefully will encourage readers to make time to gently nourish and feed their body, mind and spirit.  


This is not a “fancy” book, or a “glitzy” book; nor does it make any promises health-wise/scientifically/medically.  If readers are in doubt as to whether the recipes might be helpful to them/their family situation, they are encouraged to discuss it with their physician and/or naturopath. 


Nourish Gently is shared in the hope that it encourages readers to gently nourish their body through the cookbook recipes, and gently nourish their soul through the Soulistry Story.

“The Challenge”

“The Challenge”

“Where is the injustice in the outcome?”

It rests in
the lies he told;
the crimes he committed;
the supporters who blindly followed and follow;
the team around him who have planned and will carry out Project 2025.


I cannot – must not …


We cannot – must not … allow it to consume our light.


Gentle cyberhug is on its way to all who are confused, who are angry, who grieve.

May the light … even if only just a flicker … never go out.

And if it goes out,
may another stand with us as a reminder that “we are not alone.”
Together, the light remains lit.

May we be gentle with ourselves – and one another.
