Poetry the Body Knows - Paperback

by Debra K. McCall (Author)

In a quest to discover how to become balanced and whole, Debra McCall gives us an earnest exploration of the illusive and shifting relationship between mind and body. Consulting other texts and her own practice, she invites us to follow the path of creative expression, to let the poem write itself but also to return to the initial impulse and see where sometimes it goes off course and be brave enough to find our way again.

While providing the reader with practice "Road Maps" or exercises, she acknowledges the challenging and unsettling states we face as we embark on a journey inward to "uncover the multiple selves we carry inside" and awaken to our own potential.
