Start a Book Club in Your Yoga Studio with Chris Loebsack

In Dharma & Dollars Show, Podcasts by Cate Stillman

Yoga Teachers and Students: How to Host a Book Club with Chris Loebsack.

In today’s episode we navigate how to start a book club that is focused on our personal and/or collective evolution. Particularly, we investigate what happens when we do that through a local studio. Meet Chris Loebsack, a globe-trotting yoga teacher who nourishes her own local studio and community with a monthly book club.

As a former local yoga teacher and yoga studio owner, I wanted to start a book club. If you’re a yoga teacher or have a local wellness practice I imagine you’ve had this same impulse.

All I needed was a little encouragement and a few lessons learned to make it happen. That is exactly what i hope to provide in this episode.

And! We’re supporting yoga teachers, yoga students and wellness practitioners to use Body Thrive in a book club. I’ve created an easy guide for leading a group, plus videos for each habit in the book. It’s all free and user-friendly. In this episode I explain how we’re doing it.

My hope is that you’ll take action. You’ll gather your posse. You’ll deepen the conversation, end the small talk, and live an even more fulfilling and impactful life.

##In this Conversation with Chris Loebsack we talk about:
