FIELD TRIP: Valencia's PJI Common Read "The Body Keeps Score"

Details

This is a field trip for Orlando Stoics.

Our friends at Valencia's Peace and Justice Institute (PJI) are having a common read of the book "The Body Keeps Score", by Bessel van der Kolk. StoicDan will be attending this event and adding to the conversation. You are welcome to join also! Please review the "tickets" section below to reserve your ticket.

Reading - This event will include chapters 9-16 of "The Body Keeps Score". If you don't have the book, StoicDan will bring (to the event) a page of excerpts to start conversations. Click RSVP for this event so Dan can bring the needed number of photocopies.

Background - Similar to our studies in Modern Stoicism, other groups in Central Florida study trauma in various forms. Their goals include treatment via psychology, how to recover, and how to prevent.

Venue - Winter Park Library, 1052 W Morse Blvd, Winter Park, FL 32789

Parking - Plenty of spaces, all free, on 2 sides of the library.

Zoom - there is no Zoom link. This event is in-person.

Our group enjoys open-minded, respectful conversations on Stoicism and how it relates to science, culture, philosophy, other belief systems, and pop culture (books and movies). If we differ in our opinions, then "we agree to disagree". The long-term goal is to improve our minds via group discussions. Our group does NOT discuss religion or politics.

This event is free and open to the public.
