Naomi LowinskyNaomi Ruth Lowinsky lives at the confluence of the River Psyche and the Deep River of Poetry. She's a Jungian Analyst, and a widely published poet, winner of the Obama Millennial Award and the Blue Light Poetry Prize. Her fifth poetry collection, Deah and His Lorca, is forthcoming from Blue Light Press. Lowinsky has brought those two rivers together in Deep River-a poetry writing circle she's been leading in the library of the San Francisco Jung Institute for 15 years. The group began as a way of working with writing as a spiritual practice. That expanded to writing under the influence of great poets. And before she could say "Open Sesame!" those second Saturday afternoon meetings reverberated with passionate, soulful poems written by the participants. Since the shock of the 2016 election the group's writings have deepened in awareness of shadow, terror, and grief. Naomi is grateful for Deep River, her writing and support group in these awful times. She blogs about poetry and life at www.sisterfrombelow.com. Read More Read Less
