The Artist’s Way: A Spiritual Path to Higher Creativity
If you feel like you’re stuck in a rut, have we got an opportunity for you! The Artist’s Way, a class
based on the best-selling book of the same name by Julia Cameron, “is a powerhouse of personal
growth achieved through opening oneself to one’s creative gifts. It is fun, it is liberating, and it is
spiritual,” says class leader Maggie Bryant.
Don’t worry, this is not a studio class. You won’t be drawing anything, and you don’t need
“talent.” Instead, you’ll do mental exercises to remove the psychological blocks to self-
expression, innovative thinking, and art-making. While the class was designed for blocked
musicians, painters, writers, actors, and others, it is equally good for those who have not yet
found their mode of creative expression. The class will teach you not to judge your original ideas,
how to make room in your life for art to emerge spontaneously, and how to nurture and protect
your creative work until it is ready to be seen by others.
“Everyone knows someone who has awful self-esteem, even though he or she is a wonderful
person,” says Bryant. “Sometimes such a person is not open to seeking psychotherapy. The
Artist's Way is a journey into knowing, trusting, and celebrating each person’s unique essence. I
think of it as therapy for people who don’t want to go to therapy.”
Says Bryant, “When it comes to personal growth, there is no bigger bang for the buck. The Artist’s
Way expands self-esteem, halts self-limiting behavior, deepens spirituality and throws open the
gates of creativity. A more satisfying life is the assured result.”
