About this item

Are you seeking a moment of stillness in a busy world? Curated and photographed by Shamash Alidina, MINDFUL POEMS: 100 VOICES, 100 VISUAL KOANS is a beautiful invitation to slow down and turn inward. Born from a desire to find fresh words to settle the mind, this book brings together a unique tapestry of one hundred poems gathered from a diverse community. From professional writers to mindful strangers sharing a poem for the very first time, this collection offers a rich, authentic mix of perspectives. Every piece serves as a micro-moment of awakening, specifically limited to 100 words or fewer to provide a quick, accessible pause in your busy day. The collection is also honored to include a special contribution of the poem "Enough" by the internationally acclaimed author and poet David Whyte. More than just words, this book is a visual meditation. Alongside every poem, you will discover an original, abstract photograph. Crafted by Shamash Alidina using a technique called Intentional Camera Movement (ICM), these images act as "visual koans". By blurring light and colour, the photography bypasses literal interpretation to quietly echo the feeling of the poetry and help you find a state of flow. Inside this collection, you will find: 100 Unique Voices: A beautiful community project featuring 100 different authors from all walks of life. A Special Contribution: Includes the beloved poem "Enough" by renowned poet David Whyte. 100 Visual Koans: Paired with stunning, abstract intentional camera movement photography that challenges the way you see.

A Perfect Daily Companion: Ideal for reading right before or after your daily meditation, or simply whenever you need a mindful pause. There is no right or wrong way to use this book; you do not need to read it in one sitting. It is designed as a daily companion—one poem, one photograph, one pause.There are one hundred small doorways waiting for you in these pages.
