Allowing Now: A Book of Mindfulness Poetry (Selected Inspirational Poems)

Reaches into the corners of your soul and pulls out all that is beautiful. SoWrite Linda This is a book of mindfulness poetry, in the tradition of Mary Oliver, Maya Angelou, John O'Donoghue, the ancient wisdoms of Rumi and the most recent inspirational Instapoets. The thirty poems in this selection are intimately alive to the teachings offered by the smallest life moment. Some, like the title poem, "Allowing Now", address the topic of mindfulness head on, more explore related themes like self-compassion, inter-being and creative acceptance. These thoughtful and lyrical poems do not shy from life's challenges or pains, but explore with startling clarity and kindness the mysteries of daily experience. They remind us what it is to live openly and freely, as alert witnesses, and how to reach out to others from that place of presence. Living like this is a practice Orna Ross teaches online through daily meditation and f-r-e-e-writing practice. Here her medium for mindfulness is the magical, mystical power of poetry.
