Meet other women who are interested in the topic of self-improvement and psychology books. Discuss a variety of life topics that focus on improving the self, from personal strength to living authentically. We discuss the advice offered in relevant books. We dig beneath the surface, uncovering our vulnerable issues, dreams and desires. We then brainstorm and act on what we have uncovered.

This group is being started for women who live in the Kentlands , Gaithersburg or other areas and wish to meet other women who like to read women authors and make new friends.  We will pick a book by a female author each month and meet to discuss it.  Sometimes we may view movies that have been made from books and compare them to the book.  This will be a chance to make this group what the members want it to be and to get an opportunity to get in on the beginning of the group as it forms.

There are so many great books out there to aid in spiritual development. I've been reading many and would love to have a group to discuss it all with. For now, I'll have meetups at my home with tea provided. I imagine this as a growing, changing group with books discussed together and depending on what everyone wants, a short meditation. We'll meet in Del Ray.
