Pages of Healing Book Club

We will be reading books that help us understand ourselves better, be kind to ourselves, motivate us, and give us the courage to heal in ways we may never have considered before. There is no one way to heal and no one does it the same way. The books selected will challenge us, make us revisit the things that hold us back, and help us flourish.

The first 12 people who register to participate will receive a copy of the chosen title via USPS. Those who qualify for the books will be contacted by email.

After reading the selected title (four weeks or so), we’ll meet-up virtually on a Zoom for an hour-long discussion on our thoughts and feelings about the book and how it impacted us.

Pages of Healing Book Club is open to members of the Camp I Am Me community including burn survivors, family members, first-responders, and medical professionals.

January’s Title: Self-Compassion: The Proven Power of Being Kind to Yourself by Kristin Neff, PhD.
Zoom Session is Thursday, January 25, 2024 at 7:00pm

Self-compassion involves acting the same way towards yourself when you are having a difficult time, fail, or notice something you don’t like about yourself. Instead of just ignoring your pain with a “stiff upper lip” mentality, you stop to tell yourself “this is really difficult right now,” how can I comfort and care for myself in this moment?

 Using solid empirical research, personal stories, practical exercises, and humor, Dr. Neff—the world’s foremost expert on self-compassion—explains how to heal destructive emotional patterns so that you can be healthier, happier, and more effective.
