Join us as we come together as a community to read and celebrate the 2023-2024 Buffs One Read, The Book of Joy.

During this session on February 7 from 12 p.m. - 12:50 p.m., we’ll explore “Gratitude”, the sixth pillar that the Dalai Lama and the Archbishop offer as a quality necessary to cultivate joy. With a perspective that does not dwell on unfilled ambitions, loss, or lack, we can notice and identify the gifts present to us each day, according to the authors. Attendees will consider this practice of gratitude through discussion and activities. 

Please feel welcome to attend whether you’ve read the chapter or not. You may read the chapter in the Libraries ebook or explore a chapter summary in our community course!

This event is a part of a series of guided mindfulness practices and book clubs offered in celebration of 23-24 Buffs One Read, sponsored by the University Libraries, the Renee Crown Wellness Institute, and the Contemplative Resource Center.
