RADIO PODCAST

Jefferson Exchange (Jefferson Public Radio), talking about
National Poetry Month. Listen to the podcast here!
COMING JULY 2008!
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.
