“This is my first book with an actual publisher [as opposed to self-published] so the ninth of December is a big event in my life this year.

“Becoming a published author and regular blogger at the age of 73, feels like a real achievement and proof that creativity is open to all ages.

“I have included exercises in this book to help readers connect to the natural world and their own creativity.”

To Sing with Bards and AngelsTo Sing with Bards and Angels – A Journey into the Creative Heart is being published through O-Books which is a leading publisher of body, mind, and spirit books focusing on titles including:

Spirituality;
Development;
Self-help.

Chosen Chief of the Order of Bards Ovates and Druids, Eimear Burke, said:

"To Sing with Bards and Angels weaves together the fertile worlds of our spiritual and creative lives with the natural world and the realm of Spirit, illustrating with personal stories, poems and suggestions for practice, how the relationships between these worlds are intimate, inseparable and life-enriching.”

"Iona Jenkins' gentle wisdom illuminates the landscape of the heart and the song of the soul in each of us.”

To Sing with Bards and Angels will be available to order from Griffin Books in Penarth or online from December 9.

A few sprinklings of practical suggestions, optional meditations and tasks are added to help readers discover inspiration flowing through the unique song of their own lives.
