About this listen
The brilliant and thought-provoking poetic wisdom of Wendy E. Slater will take you on a journey of the soul to inspire, mend, comfort, and ignite your own self-discovery, self-realization, and inner healing.
This simmering, modern mystical poetry opens doors and invites you to enter for your own spiritual evolution of inner transformation of your conscious, subconscious, and unconscious levels of being.
Slater's poems will lead you to unearth love and self-acceptance. With empathy, her transcendent poetry will enlighten you, word by word, into your own reconciliation of self-blame and judgment in today’s modern reality.
This epic and timeless sacred poetry will rekindle your inner wisdom and point you toward a new awareness of our oneness with all of humanity, nature, the cosmos, and the divine so that you may remember and reawaken from the illusory separation of self, love, and divinity.

Kahlil Gibran's aphorisms, stories, and poetry on a theme remain among some of those best known to Western readers. His views, however, extend beyond the most-quoted "greeting card" sayings to a wide realm of human emotions and relationships - passion, desire, idealized love, justice, friendship, and the challenges of dealing with strangers, neighbors, and enemies. This little book captures love and life in all of their complexities and nuances.

-
Story
Two dozen select prayer poems to learn from and live with. Poetry and prayer are closely related. We often look to poets to give language to our deepest hopes, fears, losses - and prayers. Poets slow us down. They teach us to stop and go in before we go on. They play at the edges of mystery, holding a tension between line and sentence, between sense and reason, between the transcendent, and the deeply, comfortingly familiar. When Poets Pray contains thoughtful meditations by Marilyn McEntyre on choice poems/prayers and poems about prayer.

Discovering Your Soul Signature

Story
Your soul signature is your spiritual DNA - it is who you are at your core, the most authentic part of you, your singular contribution to this world. And yet we reject our authentic selves. We allow our soul signature to become blocked by any number of emotional obstacles that life throws in our path: anger, fear, guilt, shame, sadness, despair. Any or all of these feelings overtake us and create a density, a heaviness that doesn’t permit us to embrace who we truly are, deep inside. We are energetic beings, Panache Desai reminds us, and emotions are energy in motion.
