Dr.Forrest Hamer is an African American psychoanalyst who also writes his own poetry. He uses poetry to share his personal experiences and talk about complexities of identity, family, and history. He uses poetry as an opportunity for people to listen and gage into their own internal complexities while also being communally attuned. #poetry #healing #psychology #therapy #mentalhealth #wovetherapy #intersectionalcounseling https://lnkd.in/dv6AQHTG

WHO ARE YOU? The first chapter of my spiritual poetry book “Searching in Silence” is dedicated to exploring the question “Who Am I?” by far the most important question we can ask. At different chapters of our lives we may arrive at different answers. Unravelling who we are is a journey of exploration. Sometimes, best guided by someone to help you along the way. That’s what I do with souls that work with me. I help guide them to their soul’s truth so they can live a more authentic, peaceful and purposeful life. If you want to work with me you know where to find the links 🙏🏽 #Poetry #SelfDiscovery #Reflections

Today on #WorldPoetryDay, it is important to look into the profound connection between poetry and mental well-being. Poetry has long served as a powerful medium for self-expression, introspection, and healing. From the confessional verses of Sylvia Plath and Anne Sexton to the contemplative works of Robert Lowell and Emily Dickinson, poets have bravely woven their innermost struggles into poetic tapestries, offering solace and insight to both themselves and their readers. Freudian psychoanalysis, with its emphasis on the exploration of the unconscious mind, adds another layer to this intricate, although nuanced, relationship. Through poetry, authors like Plath and Lowell navigated the depths of their psyches, confronting their demons and finding catharsis in the written word. The transformative power of poetry could be seen as a form of self-therapy. Therefore, what are your thoughts on the profound connection between poetry and mental health. Do you believe poetry can offer solace and insight during challenging times? [Image: 'Wanting to Die' by Anne Sexton, from 'Mercies: Selected Poems by Anne Sexton'.

I turn to poetry to help make sense of so much that is senseless. I turn to poetry to awaken the senses in my body and mind. I turn to poets in the same way I turn to certain people. Tell me. Show me. Remind me. Guide me. This morning, I'm thinking of #poetry and #healing and #art and #connection and our fractured, aching #world. And this, from poet Yehuda Amichai:
