Introducing: Community Read Along Beginning August 3rd

Join CMP for a 7-Week Community Read Along that shines a spotlight on developing emotional intelligence. Together we’ll have a chance to engage in mindfulness practices to support learnings from our Community Read Along book, Search Inside Yourself, by Chade-Meng Tan.

Search Inside Yourself tells the story of the mindfulness program designed for Google employees by Chade-Meng Tan in conjunction with some of the most noted and respected mindfulness and emotional intelligence researchers and teachers.  It's now taught in organizations around the world.

Join us Wednesdays at 7:00 - 8:00 PM via Zoom from August 3rd until September 14. No fee or registration required, though we survive on donations. Each session will include some key learnings from the book as well as guided mindfulness practices.

Reading the book is encouraged as it contains loads of great information (and humor - Chade-Meng Tan is Google's self-proclaimed Jolly Good Fellow, after all!), but it's not essential.  The same goes for attending the sessions.  You'll likely benefit more from attending all, but you are welcomed to join for as many as you can make.  

How to Access the Book

Search Inside Yourself is available at many local libraries (we love libraries!), and in particular as part of Bridgeport Library's digital offerings. For access visit:https://bportlibrary.org/ > Scroll Down > Click on Hoopla > Download App or Search The Title on the website. Sign up for free with your active Bridgeport Library Card.

Search Inside Yourself, is also available as an audiobook through libro.fm and hard copies can be purchased at your local bookstore, or bookshop.org.  Both Bookshop.org and libro.fm support local bookshops (we also love local bookshops!).
