THE PUBLICATION OF
POETRY AS SPIRITUAL PRACTICE The
Free Press/Simon & Schuster announces the publication in 2008 of the Poetry
Mentor, Robert McDowell’s POETRY AS SPIRITUAL PRACTICE. POETRY
AS SPIRITUAL PRACTICE shows how reading and writing poems and making them
an essential part of daily rituals of aspirations and intentions can help readers
on their quest to find peace, meaning, and success in their lives. POETRY
AS SPIRITUAL PRACTICE also shows readers how poetry creates clarity, deepens
and expands ongoing spiritual inquiry, and generates greater wisdom, compassion,
self-confidence, patience, and love. McDowell illustrates his points with
excerpts from well-known poems, good and bad, as well as work by students and
work of his own. Interactive exercises appear throughout the text, allowing readers
to practice methods for integrating poetry into their spiritual journeys.
