Mental & Emotional Health Discussion


Details
Let's go deeper than our everyday conversations and connect over a discussion about emotions and mental health. This is a safe space to have meaningful discussions about feelings and experiences we go through in life. If you're interested in reading, learning about, and discussing these topics, this group is for you!
About the book:
We will use Atlas of the Heart by Brené Brown as a framework and prompt for discussions. Brené has compiled 87 emotional and cognitive experiences and detailed a grounded theory for connection! Reading the book is optional, as I'll likely read much of it aloud during our meetings and have a copy available at meetings. I've found it to be a great resource. Please check it out from your local library or purchase a copy! It's also available as an audiobook.
How to find us:
After entering the Johnson County Library Monticello location (in Shawnee), proceed upstairs (if you look up and to the right, you can see the glass-walled, semicircular conference room overlooking the lobby). At the top of the stairs, make a U-turn. The room will then be on your right.
If you get turned around, ask the staff where the conference room is located. Our reservation is under SGII Mental and Emotional Health Group.
Notes:
Our location is subject to change month-to-month because of the availability of library study rooms. So, double-check the posted location and comments before heading out!
Space is limited. Please be mindful of others who might want to attend the event. If something comes up, modify your rsvp.

Every 2nd Saturday of the month until February 8, 2026
