Art & Soul is a fully illustrated book of poetry, with every poem accompanied by an original watercolour by 15-year-old artist Bethia Erin Rose. The poetry by Anna Erika Springett is arranged in three chapters, which in turn explore the ideas of Courage, Kindness, and Curiosity, what it means to live with (and sometimes without) these qualities, and how it feels to move towards and embrace each of them.
Every poem has been written from real, lived human experience, be that the author's own and those observed or shared with her by others. Each section is full of heart and soul, both deep-diving and lightly-treading: What does it mean to be brave, have a voice, feel difficult emotion? How can I unreservedly express kindness to myself, others, and the earth? What are the questions I dare to ask, the edges I might move towards? How can I cultivate a truly open mind and heart?
Poetry has the power to connect us tenderly with our own human experience, enabling access to parts of ourselves that are inviting attention. The author's hope is that the three sections of Courage, Kindness and Curiosity will support the reader as an individual on their own path of discovery, as well as providing a resource for professionals working with clients in coaching, therapy or supervision.
