The Shift: Poetry for a New Perspective

Melody Godfred

The world has changed - but thankfully so have we. The Shift: Poetry for a New Perspective embodies the best of who we are now. From Melody Godfred, author of Self Love Poetry: for Thinkers & Feelers, comes a collection of poems designed to reframe how we see and move through this brave new world.

Each pair of poems inspires a shift from the old way of thinking to the new: from guilt to gratitude, resistance to surrender, and fear to love. The left side of every spread is dedicated to the old way. The right side offers a shift in perspective that lovingly illuminates the new. Each seemingly simple poem instantly elicits a profound reset and is coupled with beautiful line drawings that awaken not just the mind, but also the heart. The Shift's unique poem pairings uplift the soul by offering a hopeful salve for our collective burnout.

Whether you read a pair of poems a day or consume the entire book in one sitting, The Shift will be your trusted companion as you reframe your mindset for a beautiful future ahead.
