Bibliotherapy Book Club is designed by a licensed therapist, third culture kid, and fiction lover to help us get in touch with our feelings through literature analysis.

Our goal is accessibility, we want you to be able to identify, explore, and process your feelings through the medium of reading. We know that getting to the root of your feelings can be hard, especially if you’re less comfortable in a traditional 1:1 counselling session.

That’s why we’re offering Bibliotherapy Book Club (online!), with themed readings and reflective prompts to get you in your feels, to help you think critically, and to offer your nervous system the opportunity to slow down.

Our theme this month is intergenerational healing. Which book would you prefer to explore in depth?

We live in a world where burnout, anxiety, constant stress, and feeling overwhelmed are so common that we sometimes start believing that’s just how life is supposed to be.

But common doesn’t mean healthy. Common doesn’t mean we have to accept it.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, exhausted, or mentally stretched thin, it might mean something in your life needs attention, care, or change.

Your mental health deserves more than “this is just how it is.” 💞

Sometimes dreams aren’t about becoming someone new - they’re about remembering who we are beneath the pressure, expectations, and survival mode.

What’s one dream that feels like it’s calling you lately?

Year of the Fire Horse starts on Feb 17th. In Chinese culture, fire brings us amplified energy and transformation, while the fire horse symbolizes loyalty, action, and forward movement. We will navigate with discernment, courage when taking steady action through 2026.

Ramadan begins on Feb 17/18th. The 9th month of the Islamic calendar is a sacred time of fasting, prayer, reflection, and community. Muslims around the world observe this month through dawn-to-sunset fasting, increased devotion, and acts of charity.

While spirituality, astrology, and zodiac signs aren’t deterministic forces acting upon us, they are a map of ancient wisdom and practices that sharpens our intuition and guide our intentions.

Happy Year of the Horse and wishing you a very blessed Ramadan!

When was the last time you read something longer than a social media caption?

If you've been feeling stuckness, brain-foggy, and scattered, this isn't accidental.
