Compassion

[close] "Find Joy, Cultivate Peace, and Live Well" – This Goodreads book club is more than a group; it's a community bound by the shared experiences of living with ME/CFS (Chronic Fatigue Syndrome). Here, we explore the transformative power of literature, art, music, positive affirmations, and mindfulness practices. Here, we can exchange insights and create a lasting resource of wisdom, compassion, and support. In this community, members can share journeys, find support, and explore diverse literature. I aspire to create a positive, resilient, and adaptable space, fostering inner peace and happiness. Let's navigate life together, sharing coping strategies and creating a profound sense of connection and support. Join me in this exploration of well-being. I aim to foster a supportive community where we celebrate every small victory on our journey. I aspire to create a beneficial ongoing resource for many generations to come. There's no fixed start date; this is an ongoing and self-paced group. So, dive in anytime, check discussions that appeal to you, and add your comments or insights when you feel like it. There is no need to acquire the books; simply choose topics that interest you in the discussion board and go at your own pace. Each topic has reflective questions to consider, also at your own pace. This is truly a self-paced group that respects our challenges with chronic illnesses. Take your time, respect your energy, and enjoy!

[close] Okay, so I've been seeing a lot of people who are having problems and don't know where to find support. So here is a support-group that I have created which I hope you join. You don't have to be a person in a dire situation, but it would be great if you could join so as to help other people:)

[close] A book club for Universal Compassion Foundation members, Eastern Washington University student's Buddhist club, and anyone interested in exploring Buddhism, vegetarianism, and animal rights through literature.

[close] Page Walkers is NOT a stuffy book club, or a traditional church book club. Page Walkers IS a gathering of everyday people who love reading and discussing our experience in an informal, fun, group led conversation. We also like laughter, dessert, coffee, and/or a glass of wine! Ok, and most of us are connected with Footsteps United Church of Christ (www.footstepsucc.org). We read 8 to 10 books annually and meet in the loft at Duck & Decanter's restaurant on Camelback Road & 16th Street in Phoenix, AZ. We will be reading books about justice, love, compassion, spirituality, and faith. The books chosen will ask deep questions that push us to discern our own life journey's. They won't be chosen because the group or Foosteps necessarily agree's with it's thesis. Jesus asked the tough questions, he didn't just give us all the answers. This is the tradition for our group.
