The Akoma Book Club (of Women Healing Women) is open to any woman seeking
camaraderie with like-minded women for fun, self-empowerment and growth. Even
if you haven't read the book, but are willing to talk about the principles in
the book, you can join us for a lively discussion. April’s book is The Shift by
Wayne Dyer The Shift illustrates how and why to make the move from
ambition to meaning. Such a shift eliminates our feelings of separateness,
illuminates our spiritual connectedness, and involves moving from the
ego-directed morning into the afternoon of life where everything
is primarily influenced by purpose.
