Reviews
Embody by Sonee Singh is a collection of profound and spiritually uplifting verses that were born as her creative response in the wake of the pandemic surge. These verses explore the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual conundrums she faced that brought about an enlightening transformation. Her poems are organized into the seven chakras--energetic centers in our body plane. Her first poem, Security, for example, focuses on the anchorage or stability of the physical chakra, a meditative poem offered in an enigmatic manner that focuses on the formative importance of our ever-evolving perception. These are verses of self-discovery, definitive moments in the author’s journey through life; her journey is your journey, too.
Sonee Singh celebrates the power of consciousness and existence and puts this into compelling verses, inviting us to connect with similar experiences that celebrate the joy of being human. She has a thrilling sense of wonder, which is an important point in living. The power of Singh’s collection makes her a poetic force to be reckoned with in her own right. She speaks to the reader intimately, giving them a sense of exclusivity in glimpsing the inner workings of her mind. Given that her poetry has its profound roots in esoteric knowledge, her verses feel like they illuminate parts of your life—a common feature in her poems that I personally consider as its most appealing quality. Seekers of deep knowledge will find common ground with Singh as Embody will strongly appeal to them.

Embody by Sonee Singh is a rousing and inspired collection of poems exploring the common theme of healing, organized in the form of the seven chakras – Muladhara (Root), Svadhisthana (Sacral), Manipura (Solar Plexus), Anahata (Heart), Vasudha (Throat), Ajna (Third Eye), Sahasrara (Crown). The chakras are an ancient energy system having roots in ancient India, the birthland of Yoga. A blocked chakra can manifest itself in the form of several mental and physical diseases. Thus, Singh’s idea of classifying her poems in the form of seven chakras coincides with her overarching theme of healing.
The best feature of this collection of poems is that they are not forced and seem to be flowing from the inner self as any good poem should. As Singh mentions, while writing the book, she did not have the theme in mind, and it was only after finishing that she realized that they had a common theme and a hidden structure. The simple short poems flow easily and carry readers along with their easy-to-understand and straightforward form and a free-flowing rhyming scheme.
The book, in itself, is aesthetically pleasing and offers a treat to the eyes with its colorful water paint illustrations, white background and uncluttered, minimalist layout. I feel that the knowledge of Chakras is not well known, so one feature that I would have liked to have had in the book is a bit of an introduction about the focal point of the chakra and its manifestation.
Embody is a collection of simple poetry that I think will be very appealing to average readers as it contains thoughtful but stimulating poetry that is easy to understand and is powerful because of it.
