Bloom Yoga Studio Book Club: The Joys & Challenges of Aging

The book club meets on Thursday evenings, six times over the course of one year (once every other month) and features six books on a variety of aging-related topics. The book list includes works of fiction, science-based non-fiction, memoirs, etc.; something for everyone.

Each two-hour session starts with a sixty-minute gentle yoga practice, transitions to a fifty-minute group discussion, and closes with a ten-minute meditation. This new offering enables participants to continue building connections with others in the Bloom yoga community who share similar interests. Join in the discussion on the joys and challenges of aging and reap the benefits of learning and supporting one another through this engaging year-long program.
