The Body Keeps the Score: A Four-Week Healing Book Group

Tuesday evenings at 7pm PST on Zoom

April 23rd to May 14th, Free Event!

Hosted by Mark Mezadourian (Intuitive and Healer) and Melanie Saltz (Manager at New Renaissance Bookshop)

In this monthlong, hybrid book group and workshop, we will meet and discover healing together, in all its miraculous might and soothing tenderness. Healing does not have to be arduous or dramatic. It is right where we are, inviting us to embrace our own evolution and move forward toward a new era of understanding. Healing can and does happen through awareness, action and allowing.

The goal of this four-week book group is to create a safe, held space where healing can manifest, and to place our individual and collective traumas in a fresh context.

The blueprint for this gathering is the groundbreaking 2014 book The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van der Kolk, M.D.Each session in this nurturing space will include: a healing meditation/visualization; an expansion of knowledge; shared insights; and helpful guest appearances.

In our first gathering, we received insight from special guest and Trauma Therapist Minagrace Knox. http://www.minagracelmft.com/
