Feeling the Feelings (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798887633626)

Therapists and friends often encourage us to feel our feelings. We hear a lot about analyzing thoughts, sensations, and memories that pass through our bodies. This modest poetry collection explores and gives voice to the complex layers of feeling that color our everyday lives. The sounds and lines of each poem have been carefully crafted to give readers the experience of feeling each thing. Specifically, this collection addresses five strong emotions that seem to surface so often in our everyday lives: loneliness, shame, anger, justice, and joy. Each section invites readers to find beauty and value in their own emotions and experiences.
