A record of how we honor ourselves
In our heady western culture it seems as if people put more energy and time into dating someone else instead of themselves. Julia Cameron's Artist Date book is a journal, memoir, and daily diary that acts as a testament of our self-love. Playful in its design and simple in its guidance. By taking ourselves out on Artist's date we open ourselves, and most critically - our hearts, to receive our natural artistic, soulful, and creative inheritance from the world. The best fiction tales are conceived on a date with oneself because the essence of our true voices are nourished.
disappointed
I really like "The Artists Way" program, and struggle to incorporate it into my life. I thought this would be a daily calendar of suggestions and inspiration for incorporating the artist way philosophy into my daily life. Instead it focuses on the concept of the "Artist Date" in a cartoonish trivial way. I realize now that I should have been prepared for it not to be a calendar, but I found it very disappointing and not up to the quality I expected from having read the original book. I will try to return it to Amazon, something I rarely (if ever) do.
amusing but unnecessary
the content of this book was very different than what i expected. i was expecting a book full of ideas for the WEEKLY "artist's date," but what i got was a DAILY cartoon book, offering SOME artist's date ideas, but mostly just cute (albeit inspiring) cartoons that don't pertain to the concept of the artist's date. the fact that it was a "daily" book, instead of weekly, is inconsistent with the author's suggestion for the artist's date. upon first glance, i found it both confusing and disappointing. not worth the price.
