You can now find me on Insight Timer! As a poet, holistic writing guide, and yoga teacher, I’m grateful I am using this platform to share poetry and—from a whole-person perspective—help you write your own. I’m also grateful to be able to share yoga teachings here and help you bond with the natural world.
Here, I'll be reading "To be Human is to be part of the Natural World," a slightly modified chapter from my holistic writing guidebook: Poet, There's a Spark Within You, which is strongly influenced by Patanjali's Classical Yoga and The Buddha's Yoga. This recording is part poetry, part guidance. At the end, I give you an affirmation to practice and invite you to explore your voice on the page.
In the recording "Nightblooming Poetry, Hopeful Poetry," I guide you through a mindful, embodied experience of listening to nature poems. All of these poems come from my collection The Island, The Mountain, & The Nightblooming Field, and/or my holistic writing guidebook, Poet: There's a Spark Within You. My wish for you, listeners, is that these poems remind you of the strength and love you already have inside.
