Book Club
Enrich Yoga & Wellness's
The idea for our own book club was born during a class where one of our students was really struggling with the idea of being gentle with themselves. Misty asked her if she had ever heard of the work of Dr. Kristen Neff, who studies self compassion, and that little conversation ignited a spark within Misty. . .
Many of our clients are avid readers looking for ways to enhance the "wellness" in their lives. Much like Misty, so many of us enjoy disappearing into the pages of inspirational materials that enrich our lives.
Starting in September 2023, EYW has been hosting a monthly book club. where members are given one month to read the book (members are responsible for obtaining a copy of the book selection whether by purchasing the book themselves or borrowing from their local library). The focus of the club are books from the Wellness, Self-Help, Yoga Philosophy and Personal Development genres.
Our Next Book
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER · INSTANT INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER
From Dr. Nicole LePera, creator of "the holistic psychologist"—the online phenomenon with more than two million Instagram followers—comes a revolutionary approach to healing that harnesses the power of the self to produce lasting change.
As a clinical psychologist, Dr. Nicole LePera often found herself frustrated by the limitations of traditional psychotherapy. Wanting more for her patients—and for herself—she began a journey to develop a united philosophy of mental, physical and spiritual wellness that equips people with the interdisciplinary tools necessary to heal themselves. After experiencing the life-changing results herself, she began to share what she’d learned with others—and soon “The Holistic Psychologist” was born.
Now, Dr. LePera is ready to share her much-requested protocol with the world. In How to Do the Work, she offers both a manifesto for SelfHealing as well as an essential guide to creating a more vibrant, authentic, and joyful life. Drawing on the latest research from a diversity of scientific fields and healing modalities, Dr. LePera helps us recognize how adverse experiences and trauma in childhood live with us, resulting in whole body dysfunction—activating harmful stress responses that keep us stuck engaging in patterns of codependency, emotional immaturity, and trauma bonds. Unless addressed, these self-sabotaging behaviors can quickly become cyclical, leaving people feeling unhappy, unfulfilled, and unwell.
In How to Do the Work, Dr. LePera offers readers the support and tools that will allow them to break free from destructive behaviors to reclaim and recreate their lives. Nothing short of a paradigm shift, this is a celebration of empowerment that will forever change the way we approach mental wellness and self-care.
