🌿 Fall Book Circle 🌿
This fall, we invite you to join My Body is a Doorway, a book circle and community gathering led by our friend of Flatwater, Sara Peterson. Together, we’ll explore what it means to live in our bodies—through illness, healing, wellness, and the deep ways we are connected to the natural world.
Who this is for:
This circle welcomes anyone who feels drawn to the themes of body, health, and healing:
Those living with chronic illness
Anyone on a healing or wellness journey
People interested in health and wellness in our culture
Those curious about how our bodies mirror and belong to nature
Our intentions for this space:
✨ To create a supportive, caring, and inclusive community
✨ To offer a safe space for exploring health and wellness narratives
✨ To exchange stories, perspectives, and practices
✨ To embrace our humanness, connect with our bodies, and deepen our relationship with the natural world
