What sort of poetry is inside?
If you're not really 'into poetry' this is the poetry book for you. This collection is bold, playful and accessible to all. Most of the pieces are intentionally brief—you can think of them as "quotes" or one-liners that provide perspective. There are also a number of longer, lyrical pieces for the poetry lovers, too.
Who is the book intended for?
Anyone who desires to slow down life's frantic pace and spend their time more intentionally. Also high-achievers, perfectionists and people-pleasers who struggle to follow their most authentic path. Finally, women (especially twenty-somethings and mothers) who often carry a disproportionate mental load.
Do you post internationally?
Sure do! We've done everything possible to source affordable shipping options to your country.
Is the book available anywhere else?
Due to the small print-run, my website is the only place Slowliloquies will be sold.
What is your heart behind this book?
Slowliloquies was born from my own relationship with slowing down and learning to redefine success. By reading these pages, I hope you will gain a fresh perspective on what's truly important, embrace each moment, and receive permission to live according to your own rhythms.
