Seasons of Sobriety: poetry + prose

Seasons of Sobriety was originally written as a therapeutic outlet during a period filled

with darkness. As time went on, however, the writing evolved into something more

enlightened. The purpose of this book, which begins with the journey toward addiction

and ends with a sober-curious mindset, is to offer encouragement and inspiration, as

well as to illustrate through poetry and prose that a powerful potential exists within every

person, ready to be awakened. The book is divided into four chapters that represent

the seasons of the year (winter, spring, summer, and autumn) because each season

represents a different phase of the journey: impulsivity, healing, abundance, and

renewal. As you travel through the seasons, you feel the impact of the poetry as it

relates to the natural world. The book will start with the darkness of winter but keep

reading to find the brilliant colors in autumn. If you are trapped in the dark, the poems in

this book will offer tools and thought-provoking ideas to help you find the light.
