Join us for our first Book Club meeting at Turtle Yoga on Tuesday, July 25 for 7pm! The July book of the month is “The Dance of the Dissident Daughter” by Sue Monk Kidd. Author of “The Secret Life of Bees”, this book is a beautiful classic about a spiritual journey to the divine feminine. This book is widely available through the local library in paper, ebook, and audio as well as purchasing through your favorite bookstore. Bring yourself, a friend or meet new ones, and a small snack to share if you are able. This is a free community book club, and we hope you’ll join us!
From the author’s page:
“For years, Sue Monk Kidd was a conventionally religious woman. Then, in the late 1980s, she experienced an unexpected awakening and began a journey toward a feminine spirituality. With the exceptional storytelling skills that have helped make her name, Kidd tells her very personal story of the fear, anger, healing, freedom, and empowerment she experienced on the path toward the wholeness that many women have lost within faith traditions. From a jarring encounter with sexism in a suburban drugstore, to monastery retreats, to rituals in the caves of Crete, she reveals a new level of feminine spiritual consciousness for all women, one that has the power to transform in the most positive ways every fundamental relationship in a woman's life—most notably her relationship with herself.”
