Publisher Description
This book of prayers and affirmations by bestselling author of The Artist's Way, Julia Cameron, is full of inspiration and encouragement. Beautifully packaged, these pocket prayers are perfect for carrying around or sharing as a gift.
All too often we yearn for a more spiritual life but tell ourselves it's too difficult. But the smallest prayer is heard and answered. The simplest overture meets with a loving response. Each of the prayers in this book is a starting point. Taken collectively, they offer an approach to God that is powerful as well as simple. These prayers not only allow us to reach out to God, but they allow God to reach out to us.
The book is called Life Lessons because each entry is a corrective to commonly held misconceptions of the divine. Like the postures assumed in hatha yoga, they stretch us gently. Through these prayers, we learn more of ourselves and the divine.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Writer and creativity guru Cameron (The Artist's Way) offers advice from her lifelong research in this book of spiritual affirmations. This small book contains 125 prayers and meditations, each less than a page in length, written in an approachable style, and tailored for people who might otherwise avoid organized religion. Those familiar with the language of 12-step programs will find some echoes here, as Cameron puts the wisdom of scriptural teachings into direct, comforting language. Although there isn't a lot new here, Cameron teaches a very gentle spirituality that is rejuvenating to come back to. The book also includes pages of decorative art that invite concentration. This slim volume will hold appeal for readers looking for inspiration in nontraditional packaging.
