The Role of Poetry: Why & How
As a Professor and Health Researcher, poetry is part of my exciting, innovative my new line of research and clinical practice, whereby I am applying poetry to help people improve their health and wellness. In 2020, I published my first anthology of poems in the bestselling book, Becoming the Light: From Angst to Awakening (See Amazon link). My poems are written with a heartfulness and raw authenticity. My artistic mission is to help the reader find a joy and resonance in day to day complexities of the human condition.
As part of my leading edge research, clinical application, and coaching, I am helping people improve their health and wellbeing through the power of poetry. In my research-based Wellbeing Framework of Poetry (2020), I have demonstrated how elements of poetry improve physical, psychological, and physiological aspects of health and wellness. Through my various talks and live events I help people utilize the power of these poems to and become more grounded in the uncertain times of COVID-19 across the planet.
Follow my research to see how the physical, psychological, and physiological aspects health and wellbeing are being improved through the medium of Poetry! Stay tuned for upcoming publications and conference presentations where I will report on the emerging evidence of the applications of this work!

Each poem is accompanied by a photo or artwork of the author’s own creation which together, captures a visual imagery that not only evokes feelings of tranquility and relaxation, but also uplifts the spirit. Dr. Shah is a brilliant and inspirational writer whose gift has brought me hope, peace and perspective.

I'm stuck in a "perfect word syndrome" rut while attempting to capture every element, the depth of emotions, and the transformative insight from the overwhelming spiritual breakthrough I've experienced while carrying this book with me on my journey. Through the unstoppable fickleness of our moments endured over the last year, Dr. Amee Shah has created a profoundly expressive and exquisite account of spiritual lessons and perspectives derived from a journey of immense pain and seemingly endless external struggles. My outlook on gratitude, divine timing, and emotional resilience have been transformed by harnessing an abundance of divine insight from this work.
Not an avid reader or fan of poetry? Do not let those ideas turn you away from purchasing this book. It does not need to be read cover-to-cover, and these beautifully constructed spiritual messages present FAR beyond the cliché acrostics you were required to write in grade school. I set my intentions for the day based on one or two of these readings that I resonate with each morning, dependent on my external events and struggles along with my short and long-term intrinsic desires. I can attest that anyone can resonate with these intricate messages in any way- no matter what your interpretation or outlook may be, the gift received is truly empowering.
