Winter is a season of change, an invitation to slow down, reflect, and reconnect. Through the National Library of Medicine Reading Club, we celebrate this time of year by exploring books that inspire warmth, resilience, and togetherness. Whether through stories of personal growth, reflections on nature, or insights into mental health, each selection encourages us to care for ourselves and support those around us. We are partnering with St. Anthony’s Mental Health Services to host this Winter Self Care Book Club. We will be reading How to Winter by Kari Leibowitz, PhD.
This theme highlights the joy of seasonal living, the power of reading to build community, and the importance of looking out for our neighbors and loved ones as we explore topics like mindfulness, connection, and wellness.
The book summary and discussion guide can be found at How to Winter | NNLM.
*This would be a great read to go hand-in-hand with our Beanstack Reads-Solution Challenge!
