Book Club - Start With Values: How to Build a Life with Meaning and Purpose

For our next meeting of the Therapeutic Book Club, we will discuss Start With Values: How to Build a Life with Meaning and Purpose by Bradley Hook.

Summary: With its blend of theory and practice, this book equips you with the understanding and tools you need to live a more fulfilling, values-aligned life. Three distinct sections guide you toward understanding your core values and their impact on your decision-making, purpose and daily habits. It is a resource for anyone seeking to enhance their well-being, resilience, and relationships by starting with values.

The Therapeutic Book Club is aimed at self-discovery and self-reflection by exploring relevant themes and connecting with others in a safe environment. The group decides by vote which book will be read for the next meeting. The books are therapeutic in nature covering themes such as childhood trauma, anxiety, stress management and healthy relationships.

We are an open and non-judgemental group that welcomes a diversity of ideas and perspectives. This is also an inclusive event open to all genders.

Previous books we have read and discussed include Mating in Captivity: Reconciling the Erotic and the Domestic by Esther Perel, and The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness, and Healing in a Toxic Culture by Gabor Maté.

The event will take place at Kube Coworking, upstairs in the Open Hall. You can buy refreshments at the adjoining cafe before the event. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to Anita (Niah) Sommers or Kat LeRoy.
