The Window Where Lavender Grows: A Journey of Healing, Love, and Renewal

There are moments in life when everything grows quiet.

Not because the world has changed, but because something within us asks us to pause.

To sit.

To look inward.

That is where this book was born.

There was a time in my life when I needed a place to put everything I was feeling.

Not to explain it.

Not to fix it.

But simply… to hold it.

Writing became that place for me.

A quiet window.

A space where I could sit with grief, with love, with faith, and with all the things I did not yet understand.

And slowly, something began to grow there.

The Window Where Lavender Grows

This is not just a poetry book.

And it is not just a memoir.

It is a collection of moments.

Within these pages, you will find:

• Poems that hold emotions that are difficult to say out loud• Reflections that invite you to look inward gently• Vignettes that tell stories of resilience and faith• Letters that speak directly to the heart• Prompts that encourage you to begin your own journey

This book was created for those who feel deeply.

For those who carry quiet things.

For those who are healing, even if they don’t always know how.

A Space to Return To

When I was writing this, I was not thinking of an audience.

I was simply trying to be honest.

But over time, I understood something.

The things we go through…are never ours alone.

If you are navigating loss, change, or simply trying to understand yourself a little better…

this book can be a place you return to.

Not to find answers.

But to feel accompanied.

Available in English and Spanish

This book exists in both English and Spanish.

Not as a simple translation, but as two versions that carry the same heart.

So that no matter the language, the feeling remains.

If This Speaks to You

You can find The Window Where Lavender Grows on Amazon in both editions.

Whether it is for you, or for someone you love, it is a piece meant to be held slowly.

Because some things are not meant to be rushed.

They are meant to be felt.

And if you ever find yourself needing a quiet place to return to…

I hope this book can be that for you.

With love, Marie Alexandra Báez Vilá
