This Is The Best Book I’ve Ever Read On Spirituality
This article is part of my 30-day writing challenge - Ship-30-for-30
I have read plenty of books on spirituality, but of course, I have not read most of them as there are way too many books on the subject to read them all.
So, in this short essay, I was asked to pick the best book on a topic, and the topic I chose is spirituality. But to be honest, I have a few favorite books, but I can only pick one, and the one I picked is "The Artist's Way: A Spiritual Path to Higher Creativity."
For a few reasons:
Reason #1: Unblocking Creative Potential - Well, between writing, photography, and digital art, creativity is the one thing I need to have more of. It seemed like I was coming up dry with creative ideas, but this book and the course helped me focus on my creative potential, which is what I needed.
Reason #2: Writing the Morning Pages - I can't say enough about morning pages; it is my morning exercise before exercise. :-) Morning pages allow me to clear my mind to begin my day.
Reason #3: Spiritual Approach to Creativity - Most people think creative people have a lockdown on creativity, but that is so far from the truth. We all are creative beings, but this book helps anyone realize that it is not just artists, writers, and poets who have the ability to create and be creative. We are all spiritual beings, and at every moment, we are constantly creating; this book helps you focus on that ability.
Reason #4: Appeal and Application - Although this book is aimed at artists, the principles and exercises in the book apply to anyone seeking to enhance creativity, regardless of their field.
Reason #5: Life-Changing? You bet it is - Ask anyone who has read the book and has done the 12-week program, "Is this a life-changing book?" and they will tell you YES!! This is not just a book to read; it is a book to live. It’s a journey that’ll take you places you never even knew existed in your mind.
If you are at all interested in spirituality, I can't recommend this book enough.
(And if you've read it, do you agree? What other book would you recommend for beginners?)
