Back Cover Allowing for a steadiness and spiritual constancy even in the midst of strife Julia Camerons bestselling The Artists Way and The Right to Write have inspired millions of artists to pursue their creative dreams. But what does one do when "normal" daily life is filled with crisis and the dream path is not so clear? The answer can be found in Transitions. "Use this book as a companion in challenging times and as a catalyst to write prayers of your own," Cameron writes in her introduction. "It is my experience as an artist and teacher that writing rights things." With observations on the nature of creativity and daily existence, Transitions is both a safe harbor and a boat through the storms of life. Whether read in one sitting or savored over time, it helps us discover and embrace the transformations that enrich and ennoble our lives. Flap In Transitions, Julia Cameron reminds us that while the difficulty of change may concern us, accepting it is vitally important. Focused on life as we yearn for it, we neglect to live the life that we have. "This shouldnt be happening," we tell ourselves in difficult seasons. "Once this is over," we think, "Ill get on with my life." Cameron helps us meet change head-on. Through her revolutionary books and workshops, Cameron has offered life-changing concepts for developing creativity and facilitating personal growth, and thereby inspired thousands to pursue their creative dreams. Now she shares prayers of empowerment and declarations and reflections on the nature of change and coping. They extend beyond affirmations to facilitate an awakening of the potential of the human soul, and revitalize our abilities to transform our lives in the face of whatever the universe may put in our path. In the tradition of Heart Steps and Blessings, Cameron reveals the keys she uses to reconnect with the source of her creative spirit. This book, however, is intended as something more than a conscious companion for difficult times. It is planned as a model for the reader to work from, to begin to create personal healing prayers and spiritual antidotes to the pain of anguished moments. With Transitions we are given a companion, and a catalyst to use our gifts the best we can, in order to claim our experience and light our own passage. An audiotape read by Julia Cameron and world-renowned composer Tim Wheater, with Wheaters healing music, is also available.

Review Praise for THE ARTISTS WAY..."THE ARTISTS WAY by Julia Cameron is not exclusively about writing—it is about discovering and developing the artist within whether a painter, poet, screenwriter or musician—but it is a lot about writing. If you have always wanted to pursue a creative dream, have always wanted to play and create with words or paints, this book will gently get you started and help you learn all kinds of paying-attention techniques; and that, after all, is what being an artist is all about. Its about learning to pay attention."--Anne Lamott, Mademoiselle "The premise of the book is that creativity and spirituality are the same thing, they come from the same place. And we were created to use this life to express our individuality, and that over the course of a lifetime that gets beaten out of us. [THE ARTISTS WAY] helped me put aside my fear and not worry about whether the record would be commercial."--Grammy award-winning singer Kathy Mattea "Julia Cameron brings creativity and spirituality together with the same kind of step-by-step wisdom that Edgar Cayce encouraged. The result is spiritual creativity as a consistent and nourishing part of daily life."--Venture Inward"I never knew I was a visual artist until I read Julia Camerons THE ARTISTS WAY."--Jannene Behl in Artists Magazine "Julia Camerons landmark book THE ARTISTS WAY helped me figure out who I really was as an adult, not so much as an artist but as a person. And award-winning journalist and poet, Camerons genius is that she doesnt tell readers what they should do to achieve or who they should be—instead she creates a map for readers to start exploring these questions themselves."--Michael F. Melcher, Law Practice magazine "This is not a self-help book in the normative sense. It is simply a powerful book that can challenge one to move into an entirely different state of personal expression and growth."--Nick Maddox, Deland Beacon "THE ARTISTS WAY (with its companion volume THE ARTISTS WAY MORNING PAGES JOURNAL) becomes a friend over time, not just a journal. Like a journal, it provokes spontaneous insights and solutions; beyond journaling, it establishes a process that is interactive and dynamic."--Theresa L. Crenshaw, M.D., San Diego Union-Tribune "If you really want to supercharge your writing, I recommend that you get a copy of Julia Camerons book THE ARTISTS WAY. Im not a big fan of self-help books, but this book has changed my life for the better and restored my previously lagging creativity."--Jeffrey Bairstow, Laser Focus World "Working with the principle that creative expression is the natural direction of life, Cameron developed a three month program to recover creativity. THE ARTISTS WAY shows how to tap into the higher power that connects human creativity and the creative energies of the universe."--Mike Gossie, Scottsdale Tribune "THE ARTISTS WAY is the seminal book on the subject of creativity and an invaluable guide to living the artistic life. Still as vital today—or perhaps even more so—than it was when it was first published in 1992, it is a provocative and inspiring work. Updated and expanded, it reframes THE ARTISTS WAY for a new century."--Branches of Light "THE ARTISTS WAY has sold over 3 million copies since its publication in 1992. Cameron still teaches it because there is sustained demand for its thoughtful, spiritual approach to unblocking and nurturing creativity. It is, dare we say, timeless."--Nancy Colasurdo, FOXBusiness Praise for VEIN OF GOLD, the second volume in the ARTISTS WAY trilogy "For those seeking the wellspring of creativity, this book, like its predecessor, is a solid gold diving rod."--PUBLISHERS WEEKLYPraise for ARTISTS WAY EVERY DAY… "Ive been a huge fan of Julia Camerons work since I first delved into THE ARTISTS WAY over a decade ago. Since then shes continued to create a series of inspirational books, the latest of which is THE ARTISTS WAY EVERY DAY, a wonderful collection of meditations and daily inspiration. A great addition to any collection of meditation and inspirational materials, Ms. Camerons new offering is sure to guide you in a new direction."--Dishmag.com "Now, Camerons most vital work is accessible in a daily guide. Intended for study for the course of a year, THE ARTISTS WAY EVERY DAY extracts the essential teachings from Camerons groundbreaking work and assigns them to each of the 365 days."--Business Woman Review Quote Praise for THE ARTISTS WAY. ..
