Self-help Poetic Expressions. for Encouragement, Healing, Healthy Living, Relationships Joel Akande

Self-Help Poetic Expressions is basically a book on motivation or word of encouragement through the power of poems or verses which in most cases forms the foundation of songs. Our indi-vidual and collective situations change from time to time as our fortunes vary from good to bad and vice versa. Recitation of poems is well recognized in clinical practice as be-ing therapeutic apart from possibly reflecting the readers own personal circumstances. Thus, the uniqueness of poems stems from its ability to align with diverse personal situations of the readers. Once again and as I have mentioned in many of my earlier books, this work is borne out of the timeless view that word changes things and hence spoken or expressed word has conse-quences. Based on clinical experience, keen observations about life and the personal triumphs over adversity of the author, Poe-tic Expressions has been written with considerations for families and individuals. That said, in a number of cases, I have been driven by intense insipiration rather than personal material expe-riences. Poetic Expressions is a practical book with daily usage in mind covering healthy living, romantic verses, appreciation of friend-ships, reflections on life in general, victory over despair and fear. Further, the poems in this book cover overcoming of abuse and frustrations to as wide as poetry for children, encouragement for the old and nature. With this in mind, I wish you pleasurable reading.
