A collection containing poems honoring the natural world, a suite written as a tribute to a friend who passed, twenty-six poems that are translations from the Spanish of Federico Garcia Lorca and St. John of the Cross and from the Italian of Giuseppe Ungaretti; the poet drawing from mindfulness practice and the practice of presence, the political cacophony of the last presidential administration, and spiritual and substantive nourishment Gastronomique-these are poems that address what it is to take residence in the heart, which Carl Jung spoke to when he offered that after a long life of studying the psyche and the soul, he just might have started to live his life at the level of the heart chakra. \u003cem\u003eTaking Residence\u003c\/em\u003e is a multifaceted and layered book of poetry built upon the foundational notion that \"learning what it is that is taking residence in the heart\" is a worthwhile and lifelong pursuit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Wally Swist\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1951651847\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781951651848\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Shanti Arts LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/18\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.54lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.37d","brand":"Wally Swist","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47579898315007,"sku":"9781951651848","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a54fbc3a-0193-4544-a2ad-0ce5e9205f92.jpg?v=1763877425","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/taking-residence-wally-swist-9781951651848","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
