Moore affirms poetry's transformative power

This month, Hay House publishes Kim Rosen’s book, Saved by a Poem: The Transformative Power of Words. According to the publisher's site, "Whether you are a lover of poetry or have yet to discover its power, Rosen offers a new way to experience a poem. She encourages you to feel the poem as an affirmation or prayer, which can align every level of your being. In an uncertain world, Saved by a Poem is a call to cultivate the ever-renewable resources of the heart. With teaching, story, verse, and memoir, Rosen guides you to find a poem that speaks to your soul and shows you how to take its wisdom into your life."

This book includes a companion CD of "Rosen's insights along with the voices of well-known authors and visionaries, including Thomas Moore, Joan Borysenko, and Jane Hirshfield, each reading a favorite poem and discussing its personal significance."
