5th Selection Book Topic Special Focus: Emotions
NIRMV is grateful to The Honesty Circle for enabling us to have an engaging way to address the third part of our book club focus. We hope that you enjoy viewing the podcast. Keep in mind that there are many more in the series to check out on other significant topics addressed in our featured book.
Emotions can be a lot to handle at times. This week in the Honesty Circle, we have Psiyina Davis, LMFT, to talk about how we can manage our emotions. Be sure to join the conversation on Instagram. Share your comments, feelings, thoughts, and more! Email: thehonestycircle@gmail.com

Thanks to the generosity of author Neenah Ellis, NIRMV had a special contest to give away some extra-special tapes. Hassan El-Amin was thrilled to be one of the winners selected to receive an NPR interview tape linked to our last NIRMV 1-2-3 Book Club selection. The tape features author Neenah Ellis chatting with NIRMV Ultimate Inspirational Role Model Louisiana Hines. Hines was one of two Detroiters spotlighted in two chapters of If I Live to Be 100: Lessons from the Centenarians, an international bestseller by Ellis. The book was written after Ellis received positive responses and reviews for her One Hundred Year of Stories NPR series. The lucky tape winner said he felt honored and has already listened to it several times.
About the Book Club
The book club was launched in 2019 to spotlight our Recommended Reading List books. The first launch selection book was If I Live to be 100: Lessons from the Centenarians by Neenah Ellis.
The selection of a book for NIRMV Recommended Reading Lists, NIRMV 1-2-3 Book Club, NIRMV 1-2-3 Book Club Reading Inspired Experience or special events/spotlights does not necessarily mean that NIRMV endorses or supports all views and opinions of that book's author, editor or visual content creator.
