Celestial Journey: The Voyage of the Creative Spirit (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781512215953)

Sixty-three motivational and inspirational short essays on living a creative life written in an easy-to-read, engaging style.

Bestselling author Aliyah Marr takes us on a transpersonal and transformative journey exploring creativity and genius, psychology creative ability, and the inner child. For those who know that the way to self-actualization is through the medium of art, any art. Whether you are a creative writer, a journalist, visual artist, musician/composer, computer artist, graphic designer, architect, screenwriter or actor, you know that your art is what makes you want to get up every day. It is what helps you face the world, or rather, it helps you transform the world.

This book is for those intrepid explorers of human expression: artists. It doesn't matter what field you choose-whether in the arts or sciences-if you do it in the attitude of curiosity and passion, you are an artist, or what I call a "conscious creative." You are not satisfied with the status quo; you find your own answers. You forge your own path.

Increase your self-esteem and happiness

This book answers some essential questions, the most important being: what is creativity, and how can it bring me freedom and happiness?

A motivational and inspirational guide to developing or enhancing your creativity

Author and artist Aliyah Marr uses practical examples and guides us through conceptual, transpersonal art experiments to demonstrate how we can use the power of art to access our inner child, express our buried emotions, and use art as a catalyst to transform our lives.

Release your creative genius

Artists have known this forever: that the application of principle and skills learned in any art can be the springboard to creativity in any field, but when we finally release our inner creative genius we become empowered in every part of our lives. Aliyah Marr draws from her experience as a teacher, visual artist, poet, graphic designer, and author to demonstrate how you can change your body, your profession, your relationship, and your life just by changing your thoughts.
