About Book Club
Join us for a monthly gathering of mindful readers and seekers.
Our Yoga Book Club is a discussion-based community for those drawn to explore the deeper layers of yoga, spirituality, and personal growth. Together, we read transformational works that inspire reflection, compassion, and conscious living — from ancient philosophy to modern mindfulness.
Each meeting is a space for open-hearted conversation, curiosity, and connection. There are no rules, no quizzes, and no pressure to finish every chapter — the books simply serve as a starting point for meaningful dialogue and self-inquiry.
We meet in a warm, welcoming setting where you can sip tea, enjoy light bites and seasonal mocktails, and connect with others walking a similar path. Whether you’re a devoted yogi or simply someone interested in living with more awareness and presence, this circle is for you.
November Pick: Compassion in Action by Ram Dass and Mirabai Bush
In Compassion in Action, Ram Dass and Mirabai Bush explore how to bring love, service, and mindfulness into the messy, beautiful reality of everyday life. Blending spiritual insight with real-world examples, they show that compassion isn’t just a feeling — it’s a practice that transforms both ourselves and the world around us. It invites us to move beyond overwhelm or helplessness and instead learn how to actually help — to meet suffering with presence, empathy, and purposeful action.
We’ll use this month’s discussion to reflect on what it means to live our yoga off the mat and embody compassion as a daily practice — in our communities, our relationships, and within ourselves.
