Program Description

Event Details

[Adult - Ages 18+]. Join us 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 1/22/25, we'll discuss our reading of: "Radical Compassion" (2019) by Tara Brach. Brach is an in-the-trenches teacher whose work counters today's ever-increasing onslaught of news, conflict, demands, and anxieties--stresses that leave us rushing around on auto-pilot and cut off from the presence and creativity that give our lives meaning.
