About this deal

His vision of self is a very healthy one. He doesn’t promote participation awards. But he does suggest, rightly so, I think, that we “throw away the idea that you need to pause your life until you are fully healed.” Life is motion. “How many times have you been unable to fully enjoy a special moment because you couldn’t stop thinking about what was missing?”

This book has a lot of helpful advice about growing and loving yourself. Even so, it's not a good poetry book to me. I would not recommend this book to a poetry lover. I would recommend it to someone who wants a short, rough draft, self help book. Self help statements in the guise of poems. The content isn’t bad, but I’d have rather read the ideas in essay format, expanded upon & explained better. These poems just didn’t feel very poem-like to me. Find a partner who accepts you as you are but also inspires you to evolve because they take their own growth seriously. In Clarity and Connection, Yung Pueblo explores how intense emotions accumulate in our subconscious and condition us to act and react the ways we do. With his distinctive voice, at once spare and evocative, the author guides us through the excavation and release of the past that is required for growth. On the topic of intimate relationships, he reflects:From the celebrated author of Inward comes a new collection of poetry and short prose focused on understanding how past wounds impact our present relationships. Various thoughts on topics revolving around authenticity, compassion and simply being okay and growing as a person. I am certain that this work will help some people and some will find it very useful. But for me it's not good poetry and it's not self help I need at this moment. Really just seemed like mantras or good advice with line breaks: Ich mochte die Idee von dem Buch, die Umsetzung nicht so sehr. Ich weiß nicht mal genau was das Buch sein sollte. Es ist wirklich mehr Self Help anstatt Poesie, ist es wirklich dann schon Poesie wenn es einfach nur in einem besonderen Format geschrieben ist?! Life is trauma and recovery. Not trauma as we often think of it, perhaps, but the trauma of “jealousy, anger, doubt, and low self-worth.” And the recovery “is not about managing your emotions; it is about managing your reactions to your emotions” because “our reactions tell us what our mind has internalized from our past experiences.” And since each and every one of us has different experiences, everything starts with self. I can’t truly have a healthy relationship at any level if I don't understand myself first.

In such an unknown time for the world, this book has helped me, by focusing on the positive while so much negativity is out there. So much healing needs to be done by us all singularly and together. The poems read like self help platitudes in free verse form or in long paragraphs. Nothing particularly special or sparkly or piercing about the language.From the celebrated author of Inward comes a new collection of poetry and short prose that illuminates how past wounds impact our present relationships.

This book of "poetry" is more of a brainstorming session for a self help book in my opinion. I have read loads of self help and poetry books but this book isn't poetry to me. It was a continual repetition of the same 4 key points, which was all about self help. I appreciate self help books and I like them but this isn't listed as a self help book it's listed as poetry. Book Genre: Contemporary, Health, Mental Health, Nonfiction, Personal Development, Philosophy, Poetry, Psychology, Relationships, Self Help, Spirituality His perspective alone would have made a valuable contribution. He didn’t really need to tie it all up in a bow and it is a bow that will sadly turn some readers off. I love the whole idea about the book, the execution not so much. I don't even know what the books was supposed to be. It's more self help than poetry, is it really just poetry because of the format it was written?

Vielleicht hab ich das Buch auch zur falschen Zeit gelesen. Ich bin traurig, ich wollte das Buch so sehr mögen. Love will not seek to change you. It will embrace you so unconditionally that you will feel safe enough to heal the old and put effort into the new. The courage you both have to stay committed to the inner journey will reflect brightly on your relationship. A lot of the poems are repetitive—the same ideas expressed multiple times throughout the volume without much meaningful variation.
