Description:
The Mindfulness and Well-Being in Law Committee is excited to announce the selection for our next book club! Join us every other month as we come together as a community to explore books that relate to mindfulness, well-being and how they relate to our lives as lawyers.

For our June 14 event, we are reading Radical Acceptance by Tara Brach. Tara Brach, PhD, is a clinical psychologist and mediation teacher. In this book, drawing on the wisdom of Buddhist teachings, illustrative stories and the transformative power of meditation, Tara leads us to trust our innate goodness, showing how we can develop the balance of clear-sightedness and compassion that is the essence of Radical Acceptance. Radical Acceptance does not mean self-indulgence or passivity. Instead it empowers genuine change: healing fear and shame and helping to build loving, authentic relationships. When we stop being at war with ourselves, we are free to live fully every precious moment of our lives.

Radical Acceptance is available at Bookshop.org, Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and your local  public library or independent book store. 

We look forward to sharing this initiative of the Mindfulness and Well-Being Committee with you and engaging as a community through books on how mindfulness can help us live better lives.

We can’t wait to see you there!
