Healing Words: Poetry, Presence, and the Capacity for Happiness

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This paper explores the potential of poetry therapy for healing and the development and enhancement of capacities for happiness. It is written from both professional and personal perspectives.
Poetry therapy encourages hope, creativity, imagination, empathy, the identification and articulation of inner experience, and engagement with the self, others, and the world. It promotes the integration of past and present, and strengthens the sense of a positive, competent self.
