All Things Agni

Agni Library

Books that have contributed so much to the way Mir and I (Astrid) think about food, health, nourishment, and healing. When we find one that feels like it reveals new truths and unlocks new understanding, it’s an incredible experience. When the books start to build on one another and feel like they start to open conversation between them, that’s even more fun.


In thinking about growing Agni, we wanted to be able to share the wisdom that has impacted our world view, our products, and the way we make all kinds of decisions with every teammate that joined. We wanted to have a shared language and shared curriculum to discuss. Even more, we knew that future colleagues reading these with fresh eyes and with the context of their own lives and experiences would make the conversations these books sparked even richer.


So we decided to build an “Agni library.” Not only are we literally compiling all of these books to live on the shelf at the Agni office, but we also keep a running list internally of all the books that are near and dear to Agni. We ask every new teammate to choose one from the list to read and send it to them even before onboarding begins. We have a weekly team-wide “reading hour” scheduled as well where everyone blocks time to stop what they’re doing and spend an hour reading a book from the Agni library of their choice.


We’re so excited to share the list with you and hope that you find as much inspiration, wisdom, and healing as we have in these pages, and that the author’s words spark curiosity and joy for you, as well.
