About the event
"The Garden Within" book discussion/bible study is an eight-week exploration into the garden of your heart with tools to help us all on our path to THRIVING vs just surviving. The ninth week we will conclude our time together with a special celebration.
This is a committed community group/book discussion & Bible study group so this means indivdiuals may not drop-in. Only those indivdiuals that have signed up and agreed to be committed to the group and committed to the group norms may attend (respect & honor others experiences, take some space for others to hear your voice - just not all of the space & make space for your fellow sisters, and when in doubt practice compassion.) Sessions will be held in person from 6:30pm-8:30pm.
There is no cost to participate in the book club, however, registration is required in order to properly prepare.
PLEASE COME TO THE FIRST SESSION PREPARED TO DISCUSS the introduction, chapters 1 & 2.

The Garden Within Book Overview:
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER | WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLER Too often we’ve been taught to view our emotions with suspicion, seeing them as something to be suppressed, managed, or mastered. This isn’t true. Emotions are not your enemy. Internal war is not your destiny. You were created to flourish. In this game-changing book, trauma therapist and mental health expert Dr. Anita Phillips reveals how embracing emotion is the key to living your most powerful life. Just as gardens thrive in good ground, the abundant life you’ve been seeking can only be grown in the soil of your heart. Blending faith, the latest discoveries in neurobiology, and her own research and work as a licensed therapist, Dr. Anita shows you how to cultivate a state of emotional well-being. This book will equip you with the tools you need to nurture a part of yourself that has been misunderstood for too long — your heart — setting you free to live just as the Creator intended. AUTHENTIC. FRUITFUL. POWERFUL
