Welcome to Quiet Hours


We publish calm, practical self-help books for the nights that won't end. Each one is a short program with a printable workbook, written in plain language, and every research claim in them is checked against the published study it comes from. Where the evidence is thin, the books say so.


They're education and self-help, not therapy or medical advice, and they work best alongside professional care where you can get it.

Out now: Was It All a Lie?


A calm guide for the first 90 days after you discover a partner's affair, for the partner who was betrayed, whatever you decide.


Inside: First Aid for the first 72 hours, what to do with the "mind movies" and the urge to check their phone, how to get the truth without endless trickle truth, and a fair stay-or-leave process. Two paths, rebuilding trust or leaving well, are written with equal care.


161-page book + 33-page workbook. $19 launch price (regular $27).


If you're afraid of your partner or thinking of harming yourself, please contact a domestic abuse hotline or a crisis line first.

A card for 3 a.m.


When a bad night hits, it helps not to have to think. Write these on a card and keep it by the bed:


  1. Breathe out slowly: in for 4, out for 6, ten rounds.

  2. Ground yourself: five things you can see, four you can feel, three you can hear, two you can smell, one you can taste.

  3. Park it: write the loop on paper, "for tomorrow".

  4. No phone, no searching, no messages you can't take back.

  5. Get up if you've been awake and churning for a while: dim light, something dull, back to bed when sleepy.

If thoughts of harming yourself come, contact your local emergency number or a crisis line. That's what they're there for, at any hour.
