Finding Balance Poetry: I'm Not No Superwoman and I Don't Claim To Be - Paperback

For anyone struggling with mental health, poetry may be the answer you seek. From one human to another, Finding Balance Poetry seeks to connect, process, cope, and live fully.

One in five Americans experiences mental illness, and despite the numbers, mental health struggles can isolate those they affect. But you don't have to feel alone, lost, or confused. Poetry can be a powerful coping mechanism if nothing else has worked.

Author, poet, and mental health Professional Miss Q has waged her own battles inside her head, and nothing has helped her more than writing. Her new poetry self-help book, Finding Balance Poetry: I'm Not No Superwoman and I Don't Claim to Be, seeks to help others struggling with mental health through poetry that soothes.

Within the book, Miss Q describes how readers can find balance through poetry, a skill used for both mental health prevention and intervention. Despite being overlooked, poetry can offer an outlet for self-affirmation, reflection on experiences, and empowerment.

The power of poetry discussed in the book can aid readers in focusing on their body and mind's overall wellness. It creates a space to embrace uniqueness, genuineness, and empathetic regard for others' lived experiences.

Finding Balance Poetry seeks, above all, to arm individuals with poetry that they can use as a coping skill when it's most needed. This, along with other self-help tools, can begin to build a sturdy foundation of self-reliance on which a bright future will rise.
