We’re reading The Places That Scare You by Pema Chödrön — a powerful guide for those of us who are ready to stop avoiding what’s uncomfortable and start facing it with honesty, presence, and compassion.
Pema’s teachings beautifully complement Carl Jung’s work on the unconscious, the shadow self, and the path to individuation — inviting us to turn toward our fears rather than away from them, and uncover a more whole and resilient self in the process.
This free, online book club is for anyone in a season of change, questioning, or quiet longing — a space to reflect, reconnect, and share the journey with others who are also walking into the unknown.
Together, we’ll explore:
🌑 How to work with (not avoid) our fears and insecurities
💬 The power of mindfulness and emotional presence in hard times
🧘 Practices for integrating all parts of the self — even the ones we hide
🕯️ How vulnerability can deepen self-awareness and connection
🔥 Tools for navigating life’s uncertainty with courage and grace
