Join Allison in a "back-to-school" book study! Through yoga, breathwork, meditation, and conversation, we'll explore Susan Cain's latest #1 New York Times bestselling book Bittersweet: How Sorrow and Longing Make Us Whole and our own personal experiences with these powerful, heartfelt emotions. If you’ve ever wondered why you like sad music … If you find comfort or inspiration in a rainy day … If you react intensely to music, art, nature, and beauty … Then you probably identify with the bittersweet state of mind. With her mega-bestseller, Quiet, Susan Cain urged our society to cultivate space for the undervalued, indispensable introverts among us, thereby revealing an untapped power hidden in plain sight. Now, she employs the same mix of research, storytelling, and memoir to explore why we experience sorrow and longing, and the surprising lessons these states of mind teach us about creativity, compassion, leadership, spirituality, mortality and love.
