“I lovingly recommend Bani’s Book Club, it’s a warm safe space to feel, grow and connect. The books that are discussed in the book club can give you life-changing perspectives and help you connect to yourself in loving presence and awareness♥️ Bani’s warm presence, the workshops and guest speakers make it an all round experience where you get to put theory into practice. Honored to be a member of the beautiful book club?”

“Hi everyone, my name is Ashlyn, and I live in beautiful British Columbia. I’ve been a member of Bani’s book club for three seasons now and feel such joy when I speak on its behalf.

This community is not just a place to discuss books; it’s a place where personal growth is encouraged and celebrated. It’s inspirational, diverse, spiritual, and extremely welcoming—all areas that can improve one’s identity, which was the main reason why I joined. I was looking for a community to grow with, and I found it here.
I wanted to be involved in authentic conversations with genuine people. I craved connection, and thankfully, Bani’s book club has exceeded my expectations.

Every person I’ve met in this diverse community is interested in finding their true selves and does so through educational books such as The Practice of Rain, and The Body Keeps the Score. Both are phenomenal books but hard to read alone-so when we decided to read them as a group we bonded. We developed our own sense of community. A community filled with people from various backgrounds, educational levels, and careers, yet all we do is learn from one another. Then Bani hosts Zoom calls with educators in the community to teach us even more. Now, we have group chats, events, meetups, and, most importantly, the space to speak and be heard without judgment.

This community is everything you could ever need in a book club. All of this is to say that if you’re thinking about joining- please do. We’d love to have you and learn from you, and I’m very excited to meet you.”

“Hi there, I am Mai, I have always been a reader since I was a kid. Bani’s book club has been my second book club I ever attended and the first one I finally found reading and discussing my kind of books in.

Bani’s passion for self-help books and her compassion when talking about them and to the book club members is vivid and heart-warming.

I would recommend joining the book club, to whoever is interested to have a community of like-minded people and to read the trending books in the self-help genre. You wouldn’t regret it.”

“BANI’S book club is possibly the best, safest loving space on the interwebs!
I didn’t grownup reading much and wanted to start getting into the habit of reading more in the last several years and always wanted to join a book club. I stumbled across BANI’S book club on instagram and joined when they started reading The Untethered Soul, as I had Listened to the audiobook of it before but due to conflicting schedule I wasn’t able to join in any of the calls. However I’d try to keep active in the WhatsApp chat. And then joined again for radical compassion and the body keeps the score and just seeing how the book club community has evolved and flourished has been so amazing to witness and the support and love shared has been such a beautiful blessing. The Body Keeps the Score is a heavy read and Bani ensured we had support throughout and brought in amazing guest speakers to help us navigate through the topic of trauma and this read as well, so sad I missed it, even a yoga session! This is my first book club and I am hooked! I’ll say it a million times over, I am so grateful to you and for fostering this beautiful book club Bani. So very proud of you! ❤️❤️❤️”

“Joining this online book club has been an incredibly enriching experience. It’s a warm, welcoming community where self-development and consciousness are at the heart of every discussion. Not only do we dive deep into thought-provoking books together, but the workshops and talks are truly transformative. I love that our participation goes beyond just reading; we actively recommend and vote on the next season’s books, making each selection feel personal and relevant. It’s wonderful to be heard, to explore new topics, and to share ideas with like-minded people who are equally passionate about growth. This book club is a treasure for anyone on a journey of self-discovery. Bani, the creator of this book club, has done a remarkable job bringing people from all around the world together in this shared journey of self-discovery ❤️”
