Poetic Medicine: The Healing Art of Poem-Making

Art heals. Poetry is art. Poetry heals. This is John Fox's companion piece to "Finding What You Didn't Lose" and well worth working through. It not only helps people delve into the places where they can heal, it helps those who work in healing professions to use poetry-writing as a guide for their clients.The book gives small successful steps to writing and frequent examples. I teach poetry as a way to growth as well as a way to concise writing. Both are supported in the book. A flexible, intelligent book that doesn't pander to the lowest common denominator, this is a solid poetry writing book for the soul, whether troubled or not.

New look at creating. Great examples of others writings inspiring

The book is simple enough, and hard enough, for anyone who wished to explore their inner feelings. The poetry used within the book inspires new thoughts. The exercises are as challenging as you allow them to be. This book cannot be read quickly, as is never the same twice. I would recommend a muse to travel along with you as you read it.

WIFE LOVES IT, SO MUCH GREAT CONTENT

Nice product worth the read...

The book was used but in good condition.It arrived when expected.Very useful book with much wisdom and healing for the spiritual journey. Lovely to have a book to refer to whose pages have not been written on, or the corners turned down.

Super fast shipping! Great product, price and seller!

Bought for an activity that didn't happen.

The book meets my wish to find a way to work with writing poetry as a healing art, and it gives much more than I could dream about.Thanks.

This book is exactly what I have needed , as a writer of poetry it guided me into finding healing thru words, from do much loss, twin sister , husband and parents in the last three years. I have already recommended it to those I've met on similar journey

Just what I was looking for to support my work with poetry and wellbeing with groups

Great book guiding one to the art and realistic expression of poetry
