Planned to read more this year? Same. How’s that going?

We’re starting the AWHI Book Club.

First read: Rest Is Resistance by Tricia Hersey.

We’ll begin with the first half of the book for session one — appropriately low-effort, given the theme.

No pressure. No performative book-club energy. Definitely no homework policing.

Just show up, join the kōrero, and see what you think!

It’s free to join, but please register your interest below so we can manage the snacks properly!

Facilitated by AWHI member and co-founder of Good Company Yoga, Veena Patel, with low-level support from full-time book nerd, KK!
