About the Book
“Since its first publication, The Artist’s Way phenomena has inspired the genius of Elizabeth Gilbert and millions of readers to embark on a creative journey and find a deeper connection to process and purpose. Julia Cameron’s novel approach guides readers in uncovering problems areas and pressure points that may be restricting their creative flow and offers techniques to free up any areas where they might be stuck, opening up opportunities for self-growth and self-discovery.
The program begins with Cameron’s most vital tools for creative recovery – The Morning Pages, a daily writing ritual of three pages of stream-of-conscious, and The Artist Date, a dedicated block of time to nurture your inner artist. From there, she shares hundreds of exercises, activities, and prompts to help readers thoroughly explore each chapter. She also offers guidance on starting a “Creative Cluster” of fellow artists who will support you in your creative endeavors.
A revolutionary program for personal renewal, The Artist’s Way will help get you back on track, rediscover your passions, and take the steps you need to change your life.” – Amazon
Meet Your Hosts
Hi, I’m Rev. Jen, founder and director of Unity Arts Ministry. It is my passion to inspire the Creative Spirit through workshops, retreats and guest speaking events across the country and abroad. I’ve been painting since I was old enough to smear my fingers in it and I had my first solo show at age 23. The Artist’s Way first came into my life over 20 years ago. Since then, I have been keeping daily morning pages and have led over a dozen Artist Way creative circles.
Hi, I’m Natasha, a funny, creative, passionate maker of things from photographs and paintings to essays and poetry. Over of span of more than 20 years, I’ve written for national publications, exhibited my photography, appeared in film and served as art teacher for children in the school environment and an arts educator for adults in creative, online communities. The work I’ve come to love focuses on guiding others as they move beyond fear so that they can embrace vulnerability and discover the possibilities that abound when they share their beautiful voice with the world. The Artist’s Way has been a guiding light in my life and I can’t wait to share with you.
