The Breathing Club
Summary: Explore the vast world of spirituality, self-inquiry, and yoga-ish literature alongside renowned yoga teachers and wellness consultant's Patrick Beach and Carling Harps. Each week we'll dive into a popular book together and just like your neighborhood book club or your grandma's bridge crew, we'll dissect and discuss, maybe glean some knowledge, and maybe get a little distracted along the way. You can join us each week by following the reading schedule and becoming part of the club! The Breathing Club is more than just a book club, when were not diving into the words, were diving into ourselves with guided meditations. Most of us know that meditation is a good thing.We know it can help reduce anxiety and help prevent the recurrence of depression. Its powerful stuff and we know that we should set aside more time to unplug and tune in to ourselves a little more intentionally. But most us also know that's easier said than done. We know. and that's what we're here for. Starting is usually the hardest part, so we want to give you that little nudge-nudge to put on those headphones, turn your phone to Do Not Disturb, and settle on in.
