This episode is about the fourth of twelve weeks in the course and book The Artist's Way: A Spiritual Path to Higher Creativity by Julia Cameron.

My artist date this week was shared with my mom but we went to my favourite metaphysical/crystal shop in person! I hadn't been there in so long and it felt so good!

This chapter begins by talking about honest changes. As we do our morning pages, we start to uncover layers of illusion that have kept us from knowing our real feelings about our lives. "Official feelings" are those that we show to others, often saying we are okay when that is not our real feeling. As we cut through that and gain clarity, it can be uncomfortable because once we know the truth, we can no longer pretend that we are okay.

Whether you are feeling big waves of emotion and seeing major shifts or the changes are more subtle, trust that you can keep going. Acknowledge your progress and don't allow yourself to hide your real feelings again.

The BIG challenge for this week is READING DEPRIVATION. Yes, that's right. No reading or television. Just music and your creativity. Maybe you'll get some cleaning and organizing done, finally try one of the activities from previous lists or discover a new skill!

The exercises that I talked about for Week 4 are:

Environment: Write 1 paragraph, find one image and note your favourite season to describe your ideal environment
Time Travel: Describe yourself at 80 years old. What specific things will you enjoy after 50? Write a letter from that version of you to current you!
Time Travel: What were you like at 8 years old? Write a letter from that kid to you now.
Environment: Find a space in your home that will be your creative environment. Even a corner will do! Use your creativity to decorate it in a way that makes you happy!
Life Pie: Review this pie from week 1 and draw out your current state in each area of life. Connect the dots and check your progress.
Write your own artist prayer
Extended Artist Date: a full day of fun!
Get rid of one low self worth outfit
Look at one area of life that you know needs to change (thanks to some clarity!) and explain what the payoff is for staying stuck.
If you break your reading deprivation, explain why! How did it happen? What was the emotion behind it? How do you feel about it now? Why?
