Speaking the Soul

Event: Speaking the Soul: The Transformative Power of Inspirational Poetry
Where: The Open Center 22 East 30th St., Manhattan
When: Friday, June 18, 7–10pm
Phone: 212-219-2527

Kim Rosen’s gift of speaking poems has touched listeners worldwide with poetry’s power to awaken, inspire, and heal. The poems she delivers, interspersed with inspirational insight and group participation, dissolve the walls of culture, religion and generation to speak directly to the heart. Especially in these times of global and personal uncertainty, a poem can be a companion through difficulty, a wake-up call, and a source of passion, peace, and inspiration. This evening Kim will weave lecture, performance and experiential processes to invite each person to directly experience how poetry can cause shifts in feelings, thoughts and biochemistry that open consciousness, promote healing, and align us with what matters most.

"Saved by a Poem is, quite simply, transformational. A book that I now keep by my bedside. I have never before appreciated the power of poetry, having been talked out of it in school. Kim Rosen redeemed poetry for me. And a whole new world has opened up. I love this book (and the CD that goes with it).” — Christiane Northrup, M.D.
