Book Description

Publication Date: January 1, 2003

The Healing Fountain is a phrase drawn from W.H. Auden's lines, "In the deserts of the heart / Let the healing fountain start." Like the crystalline spouting waters . . . poetry inspires and renews us time and again. When we read or hear a poem, our senses, hearts, minds, and souls all participate in the act. Because poems elicit responses at so many levels, they often function as vehicles for enlightenment and healing.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: The Healing Fountain: Poetry Therapy for Life's Journey (Perfect Paperback)

This book is a wonderfully comprehensive compendium of poems that really heal. Moreover, the authors have skillfully presented the reader with "lesson plans" that will help the facilitator to engage her clients and get to the heart of the Healing Fountain.
