We’re back this week to provide you with another page-turning addition to your bookshelf. Grab your reading glasses, find somewhere cozy, and get into this week’s TBG library pick, The Luminous Self, by Tracee Stanley.

Tracee Stanley is a post-lineage teacher and founder of Empowered Life Circle, a sacred community and portal of practices, rituals, and Tantric teachings.

Tracee joins us today to share what it means to show up as your luminous self, the importance of rest, and why our self-care practices should evolve with the ebbs and flows of our lives.
