Program Description

Event Details

[Adults 18+] Join us on the last Wednesday of each month to discuss our selected classic or popular book (usually non-fiction but could be fiction) that focuses on personal development and self-cultivation. The monthly group discussion can bring out: new interpretations, differing opinions, the sharing of past experiences related to the topic, expansion of our minds, and the cultivation of a deeper sense of community. If you enjoy books that foster personal growth, transformation, and well-being, please consider joining us to discuss with others.

On 10/30/24, we'll discuss our reading of: "Mindfulness in Plain English" by Bhante Gunaratana. The author, a renowned meditation master, takes us step by step through the myths, realities, and benefits of meditation and the practice of mindfulness. The book showcases Bhante's trademark clarity and wit as he explores the tool of meditation, what it does, and how to make it work.
