Raychelle Heath
What does your inner writing voice tell you?
Even if only one person is able to receive your offering, it’s worth putting on the table.
What is the first book that made you cry?
The first book that comes to mind is The Bluest Eye by Toni Morrison. That book was full of so many hard truths, but I’m so glad I read it.
What are you currently working on?
Preparing for my podcast (Black Women in Wellness), my next round of meditation workshops, and taking a staycation somewhere nice.
You can find Raychelle’s poem “lineage” in Yellow Arrow Journal’s Vol. VI, No. 2 issue on ANFRACTUOUS. She also took part in “An Exploration of Belonging: The Anfractuous Reading,” just released. Find her part below. The full reading can be found on the Yellow Arrow YouTube channel.
When Raychelle is not writing, she is engaging with the wellness community as a certified Kripalu Yoga, Yoga Nidra, and Mind Body Meditation instructor. Visit her website to find out more.
