We’ll be moving through this book slowly over at least two months, so there’s absolutely no need to read the whole thing in advance. You’re welcome to come even if you haven’t read the book at all. This is a space for shared reflection, conversation, and curiosity, not homework or pressure.
Our session will include gentle structure, key ideas from the text, and open discussion about focus, distraction, technology, nervous system regulation, and what it means to live with more intention in a hyper-stimulating world.
