    Take a moment to begin your weekend with a break from chores and dive into a good book. Our Saturday morning “Book Salon” will begin at 9:00 am with a short meditation, then during tea or coffee we will dive into the previous weeks reading, we will close the cover and wrap up at 10:30 am.
     
    No need to wait for the start of a new book to join us, feel free to jump in anytime.
     
    Through November 30:  "Start Where You Are: A guide to Compassionate Living" by Pema Chödrön
    "Start Where You Are" is an indispensable handbook for cultivating fearlessness and awakening a compassionate heart.
     
    Beginning December 7:  "Shambhala: The Sacred Path of the Warrior"
    There is a basic human wisdom that can help solve the world’s problems. It doesn’t belong to any one culture or region or religious tradition—though it can be found in many of them throughout history.  It’s what Chögyam Trungpa called the sacred path of the warrior.  In this book Trungpa  interprets the warrior's journey in contemporary terms.
    Paperback available in the Shambhala Center book store; available in paperback and audio on Amazon.
