Reads - Joy
Welcome to our Recommended Reads section. Here we will share some of our favourite books based on each of the pillars we explore at Ora Collective.
Joy can be found everywhere and while those moments may be fleeting, you can tune into them all around you. We’ve rounded up some books below to help you think about what joy means to you and how to align more with your inner joie de vivre.
We have decided to redirect you to Better World Books because their purpose and vision aligns with ours. For every book you buy through them, one is gifted to a person with limited access to education.
