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.

Our next book club will be held on Thursday, February 15 at 7pm. We are reading Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle by Emily Nagoski and Amelia Nagoski.

With compassion, optimism, and a sense of humor, this book describes what we are up against when it comes to the endless cycle of feeling overwhelmed and exhausted. We can all relate too well to this cycle of stress, which seems to never abate. The authors show us how we can learn to complete the stress cycles that hold us back. With the help of eye-opening science, personal stories, prescriptive advice and helpful worksheets and exercises, readers will be empowered to create positive change.

Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle is available at Bookshop.org, Amazon, and your local public library or independent book store.

Also, take a listen here to the authors discussing burnout and completing the stress cycle on Brene Brown’s podcast.

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.

 *While we encourage you to read the book, it is not necessary to have completed the book to participate. We will base our discussion on the themes that Burnout explores, which are universal themes and not solely dependent on the content of the book. You can also listen to the podcast–link included above.
