Happy New Year 2020! This year our practice will be introducing a monthly opportunity to use books as a way to continue to work on our mental wellness. In a previous blog post, I discussed the value of Bibliotherapy. I have had a love for reading since I can remember. Books have had such an impact on my life and I always enjoy hearing about how they impact others as well.

Starting in January, we will be reading a book as a community every month. This experience is open to anyone who is interested in participating. This isn’t a book group meeting where we discuss whether or not we liked this book, this is a bibliotherapy session where we can discuss whether or not we like a book but actually look at how a books makes us feel, what did we experience from someone else’s perspective, how this made us think of our mental wellness in different ways, how it may have affirmed us, etc.

For January our book selection is: The Year of Yes by Shonda Rhimes. You can register for our session here.

This monthly session is given freely with no cost to anyone who is participating and is open to all.
