Welcome to Week One of the 2023 Common Read

Genevieve Cooper 1/5/231:49 PM

Welcome everyone to our 2023 Common Read!

As a reminder our first in-person discussion session will be held on Wednesday, January 18th at Valencia College's Winter Park Campus. By then, we plan to read up until page 137/ through chapter eight and enjoy light refreshments with the Central Florida community. Don't forget to share with your friends, family, colleagues--anyone to participate in this impactful discussion! To register and review the reading schedule, go here.

Too eager to wait till the 18th to discuss quotes, themes or impressions from the book? Join our Facebook group, PJI Common Read to engage in conversation around Dr. Bessel Van Der Kolk's "The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma."

"Healing, he told us, depends on experiential knowledge: you can be fully in charge of your life only if you can acknowledge the reality of your body, in all its visceral dimensions” (p27).
