John Brehm (The Dharma of Poetry) Interview

For this episode of the Wisdom Podcast, host Daniel Aitken interviews poet and teacher John Brehm. Wisdom is proud to have published two of John’s books: his collection The Poetry of Impermanence, Mindfulness, and Joy, which came out in 2017, and his 2021 book The Dharma of Poetry. In this episode we explore the fascinating and profound territory where spirituality and poetry come together, with John as our expert guide. John shares specific practices and ideas that will deepen and enhance your experience of reading poetry, including:   the specific techniques he uses for teaching the integration of poetry and spiritual practice; how to mindfully read and reflect on your favorite poems, interacting with them on a deeper level; how to approach poems from a nondual perspective, and how poems in turn can create a nondual experience for the reader; what a meditative writing process looks like; what it means to become intimate with a poem; and much more.  John Brehm is the author of three books of poems—Sea of Faith, Help Is On the Way, and No Day at the Beach—and the associate editor of The Oxford Book of American Poetry. He teaches at the Mountain Writers Series in Portland, Oregon and the Lighthouse Writers Workshop in Denver, Colorado. He also offers a monthly Poetry as Spiritual Practice gathering online and leads mindfulness retreats with his wife, Alice Boyd, that include movement, guided meditation, and mindful poetry discussions. The post John Brehm: The Dharma of Poetry (#106) appeared first on The Wisdom Experience.
