Fall AAPI Book Club
In the Fall 2026 semester, the AAPI Book Club will read and discuss Self-Compassion by Kristin Neff. This book explores the importance of treating ourselves with kindness in moments of struggle, failure, and self-doubt. Drawing on research in psychology, Neff examines themes of mindfulness, emotional resilience, and self-acceptance, and offers practical ways to cultivate a healthier, more compassionate relationship with ourselves.
