To my incredible supporters of this blog

I hope this year is offering you moments to pause and find peace and calm amongst the craziness that often surrounds our busy lives.

I wanted to share this news with you and ask that you please share this in your own communities so these books can add value to anyone who is faced with a diagnosis/illness. Below is a brief description of each book.

Alphabet of Survival

‘The Alphabet of Survival’ and ‘The Healing Journal’ are more than just books – they are lifelines for anyone navigating the storm of a healing crisis. Created with compassion and clarity by breast cancer survivor, Taryn Sudding, these two offerings reflect the courage of a woman who faced her diagnosis in 2018 while performing in the UK & Ireland tour of Summer Holiday, and chose to turn her experience into a gift for others. During lockdown in 2020, while recovering from surgeries and chemotherapy, Taryn penned ‘The Alphabet of Survival’ – a small book with a big heart. It chronicles the deeply personal steps she took from diagnosis through treatment, offering not just practical advice but emotional sustenance. Each letter of the alphabet becomes a doorway: from Loving yourself, to Making every day count, to Eating natural food, her A–Z guidance is both grounded and uplifting.

Healing Journal

As a companion piece to ‘The Alphabet of Survival,’ ‘The Healing Journal’ invites you to respond, record and reclaim your voice. Each section offers prompted reflections, gentle exercises for grounding, gratitude, and self-compassion, as well as a creative space for writing, sketching, or just simply being. What makes these books vital is not just the information they contain, but the spirit behind them. Taryn’s writing radiates warmth, honesty and a fierce desire to help others find light in the darkest moments. Her journey becomes a roadmap – not just for surviving, but for healing with intention, dignity and hope.

In the coming weeks I will be visiting as many hospitals and care centres as possible to offer a free copy of each book with this flyer in the hope that I can create awareness.

I am truly grateful for your interest and support and wish you good health and protection for the rest of the year ahead.

In love and friendship

Taryn
