MEDIA REVIEWS
'Poetry For Health is an invaluable guide for practitioners and individuals in search of a greater understanding of how we can heal ourselves. Marvin Shaw's poetry touches our senses, inspiring us to write our own poems and engage with them.' Miriam Reissner - Freelance Journalist 'Poetry For Health celebrates the healing power that emerges when people, who have never written before, express things long held (and withheld) within them. The emotional range of its suggested exercises is really good.' Jay Ramsay - Poet, Author, Healer, Psychotherapist 'Poetry For Health will serve as an invaluable coping tool for anyone who cares to read it.' Daniel Cainer - 'The New Comic Bard of Anglo-Jewry'
