Lifted: Comeback Poetry for a Needed Time - Paperback

by Kristy Hellum (Author)

Lifted is impeccably honest and rare. Kristy Hellum shares with us poetry that makes suffering almost seem worthwhile. Let yourself be staggered by a phrase. This is raw and important wisdom for a time of chaos. Her poetic encouragement for authentic grieving is brilliant, seductive, and aimed straight for the heart. May we all be so fortunate to be touched by poetry that makes us want to sing and dance, laugh and cry, all in the same moment.

Author Biography

As a storyteller, activist, dancer and soul-centered psychotherapist in San Fransisco's North Bay, my work focuses on finding meaning in sorrow, transforming suffering into wisdom, and helping to create deeper intimacy with Self and others. I teach mind-body-spirit dance (NIA) and lead Interfaith Gospel Singing in workshops and on the streets . I find poetry erupting most often in the company of magnificent trees and loud oceans. I get to be a mother of two extraordinary beings and am honored to be a mentor to many other Soul friends.
