Current Book Club Plans

The Women’s Wellness Book Club is currently not meeting. In the past, our book club has looked like:

We read or listen independently then meet weekly on Wednesday at 6:30-7 pm. To accommodate as many schedules as possible, meetings are held both in person (in La Plata, Maryland) and virtually. During our time together, we connect socially (as many women need more than we admit!), fess up to whether we made time to read in the last week (!), share what has resonated with us the most so far, discuss how we are responding to the book’s information, and its impact on our personal wellness choices. A benefit to joining us for several books or more is the ability to connect information and lessons from book to book to help each other and ourselves!

Remember to save money and help the environment by making good use of the public library, book swap sites, audio books, the Zen Lending Library, and Better World Books.
