How a Therapeutic Book Club Can Help You Heal

If you're like me, you love nothing more than curling up with a good book. But what if I told you that there's a way to not only enjoy your favorite novels, but to also work on yourself and your personal growth? It's called a therapeutic book club, and it might just be what you need to help you heal.

Therapeutic book clubs are small groups of people who meet regularly to discuss the books they're reading and the issues they're facing in their lives. The group provides a safe space to share thoughts and feelings, and to receive support and guidance from others who are going through similar things. In addition to the emotional support that therapeutic book clubs provide, they also offer an opportunity for personal growth and discovery. Reading and discussing books can help you gain insight into your own life, learn new things about yourself, and develop new skills. 

If you're interested in joining a therapeutic book club in Greensboro, here are a few things to keep in mind. First, therapeutic book clubs are usually limited to 8-10 members so that everyone has an opportunity to share. Second, the books that are chosen for discussion should be ones that will promote healing and personal growth. And finally, the group should be facilitated by a trained therapist or counselor who can provide guidance and support. Luckily, our book club "The Next Chapter" satisfies all of these requirements and is available to you at no cost! 

If you're looking for a way to improve your mental health and wellbeing, I highly recommend joining us. It's an enjoyable way to spend time with friends while also working on yourself. We read one book a month and break each up into 4 sections. On our closed Facebook group, you can read and comment on the posts others put up about their experience with that week's reading. At the end of the month, we meet together on Zoom to discuss and share our personal experiences. 

For December, we will be reading Braving the Wilderness by Brené Brown. Hope to see you there!
