Breathing Statues

In her book Breathing Statues, Lyndi Brey extrapolates the relationship between mental illness and faith. The collection of poems exhibited in Breathing Statues captures a unique and creative representation of mental health and faith- gathered from firsthand experience. Her poems- which speak of (dis)order and chaos- are skillfully actualized in illustrations and color. By the end of her book, you will understand not just what it looks like, but what it feels like to have an anxiety disorder. Lyndi says, "The title Breathing Statues originated from the idea that we are all masterpieces: statues shaped by the hand of God, given the breath of life." While also familiar with breathing exercises taught in therapy, Lyndi Brey believes breathing is a simple yet sacred practice often ignored altogether by mental illnesses. Her prayer is to show the delicacy of humanity, the divinity of God, and the struggle of disorder. Physical Product Details: 5.75" by 7.75", Matte cover, 65 pages of poetry.
