S(h)elf Care Book Club 9 November 2023 17:00 - 18:30

Welcome to S(h)elf Care, the book club organized by Re:Book (University Library) and the Student Wellbeing Point where we read, get together, get creative, enjoy pizza, and get real with each other.

“Authenticity is a collection of choices that we have to make every day. It's about the choice to show up and be real. The choice to be honest. The choice to let our true selves be seen.”
― Brené Brown, The Gifts of Imperfection

During this first edition of the book club, we will be reading 'The Gifts of Imperfection' by Brené Brown. A motivational and inspiring book to wholehearted living. With original research and plenty of encouragement, she explores the psychology of releasing our definitions of an “imperfect” life and embracing living authentically. 

This is how it works:

Every person that joins the book club will get a free copy of the book and will enjoy some free pizza and drinks during the first book club evening (let me know in advance if you have any special dietary restricitons or preferences). 

You will get a free copy of the book during the first event, so no need to start reading yet. Note that there will be follow-up meetings on this book but the data will be discussed with the participants during the first edition on the 9th of november. 

When: 9 November 2023, 17:00-18:30

Where: Library Common Room (Library 1st floor) VU Main Building.

What: Free food, free books, arts and crafts, good conversations

How: Sign up, show up the 9th of November and get a free book!
