STRESSED, UNSTRESSED: CLASSIC POEMS TO EASE THE MIND EDITED BY JONATHAN BATE AND PAULA BYRNE
2016, 272 Pages (William Collins)
Genre: psychology, poetry, nonfiction, anxiety
(I received an ARC from the EDELWEISS)
I have always loved reading poetry, especially classic poetry. I love the flow, imagery and words of poetry. I find that as I read them it is a way to calm my anxiety. It calms my worries more than my fears. It is a way for me to get grounded. As I learn more about myself through counseling, books and writing I am getting a better handle on what keeps me going. I requested this book in order to read cool poetry and instead I learned more about my anxiety and myself. This is a great book for discovering great poems and/or exploring yourself and your stresses.
