The Artist's Way, Julia Cameron.

Dubbed as a spiritual path to higher creativity

hits on some basic principles that you’d think would be second nature to us, but in today’s society seems to be missing in many. The principles are based on ‘recovering’ lost standards, and how to go about doing that through a deep introspection. This is one area I highly believe in…. things aren’t going well in your life currently so you break it down, analyze and work toward changing the self. Those recoveries can be a sense of identity, power, integrity, compassion, strength, faith, etc. In today’s society I can easily see this book as an avenue people take to regain some type of control over their own lives.
