As much Rhyming Memoir as Poetry Collection, this is the story of Stevie G's long and winding road from the frozen fear of youth, to addiction, recovery and spiritual growth. With a strong poetic voice and powerful insight, (W)hole: From Absence to Abundance, Poems of Recovery and Faith is heartbreaking and brutally honest one minute, funny, playful and deeply loving the next. It is for anyone whose inner child is open to exploring the themes of his or her life through diverse lenses including: The easy, cheerful Rhymes of our Youth Early Childhood Development with its psychological underpinnings of Attachment Theory, Mirroring and "Good Enough" Parenting The Recovery Movement with its paradoxical 12 Step Principles of accepting Powerlessness to gain power over our myriad Dependencies in the modern world And Spirituality with its moment-by-moment journey toward an Unconditionally Loving Higher Power.
