All Along You Were Blooming: Thoughts for Boundless Living

All Along You Were Blooming is a beautiful and encouraging book filled with thoughtful reflections and inspiring messages. The writing is uplifting, easy to read, and offers gentle reminders about growth, self-worth, and embracing life's journey. I enjoyed reading a few pages at a time and found many passages encouraging and thought-provoking. It's also a lovely book to keep on your coffee table or give as a meaningful gift. If you're looking for an inspiring read that brings positivity and encouragement, I highly recommend this book.

As a yoga teacher and young woman, All Along You Were Blooming felt like a deep breath for my heart. Morgan Harper Nichols has a way of putting words to emotions I didn’t even realize I was carrying. Her poetry is like a moving meditation—grounding, expansive, and full of grace. This book reminded me that healing isn’t linear, and growth often happens quietly. I’ve turned to its pages after long days, during moments of grief-based reflection, and even as inspiration in my yoga classes. A beautiful reminder that we are always in bloom, exactly as we are. (It also happens to be one of the most beautifully illustrated books I've come across lately).

If you’re a mom, this is your book. It’s so beautiful, complete soul food! That that seems even a shallow statement for how much this book means to me. Maybe a life raft in the storm? A shoulder to cry on in your darkest day? Being seen and held and lifted up right where you are in life. I’ve resolved to give this book at every baby shower. It’s that woman’s journey and all those changes, struggles, triumphs! But it’s good for all women as I think, motherhood was just my journey when it helped me but it covers so much of the woman’s experience. Literally cannot recommend enough!!

I bought this as a gift for my friend who loves poetry. She commented that she finished this book very quickly because she loved it so much. She said she would recommend it to anyone even if they are not someone who typically enjoys poetry. When I received the book initially, I couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised at the quality of the material of the book to include the pages and the cover. I am considering ordering myself one.

I haven’t even read the full book yet and I know for a fact this is 5 stars. If I could give it more, I would. Every single page is full of gorgeous art work with beautiful words to touch your heart. If you’re considering this book, GET IT. Seriously (also would be a perfect gift too). I have a full 5 shelf bookcase and this is easily my favorite book now, based on the beauty, uniqueness, and wise words. The pictures I put are just 3 random pages I picked (probably not even the best pages out of the book) just to give you an idea.

Beautiful thoughts, lovely poems! But some of the poems are printed in such small print, my old eyes can’t read them well - even with my strongest reading glasses. Other poems are printed larger.

Not only are the poems in this book inspiring, but the artwork captures your attention from the start. I did find the theme of some of the poems to be a bit too simple. As in advice you’ve heard your whole life. But Morgan Harper Nichols has a way of taking that everyday advice, and turning it into something beautiful. There are a few religious undertones. Lots of talk of grace, and a few references to the christian bible. Although, I am not a christian myself, i still found those poems to be heartwarming. This is one of the first collections of poems I have read that didn’t have a sad/ angry undertone and I was not disappointed one bit. I look forward to reading more from this author.

Wonderfully uplifting and beautiful piece of work. I love purchasing this for gifts.

As always Morgan is amazing!!! Her art the quotes everything is with your while!!

Fan absolue

I keep it by my bed to relax before sleep. I just open up to any page. it's so nice :)

Have come to appreciate the poetry of Morgan Harper Nichols it was an easy decision to purchase this gorgeous hardcover book sight unseen. The book is divided into 4 sections and provides words for any occasion. Purchased as a gift & will buy one again and again.

El libro llegó un poco raspado de la orilla debido que no traía ninguna protección dentro de la caja. Le doy cinco estrellas porque la calidad del libro es muy buena, tiene todas las paginas con diseño a color. Definitivamente un must si eres amante de la poesía y de los book covers bonitos.
