Overview

In this stunning collection of poems, Inez Nambangi brings together poetry therapy and nature meditations for those healing from trauma. ""I have uncovered my truth on these trails."" Sometimes the first step in taking a stand is taking a breath. Inez's book places readers among nature, providing poems for stillness in even the most hectic of times. Her bite-sized works make an art out of meditation exercises, each line break providing an excuse to pause, reflect, and heal. With poems for hard times like ""This Day Too Will Be Done"" and ""I Believe You,"" Inez walks alongside her readers, validating their experiences and helping them to replant their roots. But First We Live offers breathtaking lines of support and encouragement in every piece. Inez is also committed to providing holistic healing for her readers through additional deliverables such as walking meditations for healing from trauma, mental health resources, warning signs to look out for in your relationships, and prompts for your own nature writing. But First We Live is both art and an answer. Each poem is a meditation and a message of hope. These pieces combine the soulful nature imagery of Mary Oliver and the modern approachability of Rupi Kaur. At its heart, this is not just a poetry book about mental health . . . but a promise of the healing to come. ""Thank you for the courage to laugh When you felt like crying Thank you for staying steadfast For the knowledge and belief That eventually darkness gives way to light.""
