Using more than fifty prompts and vibrantly illustrated examples, Capacchione guides readers through drawing and writing exercises to release feelings, explore dreams, and solve problems creatively. • Topics include emotional expression, healing the past, exploring relationships, self-inventory, health, life goals, and more. • The Creative Journal introduced the world to Capacchione's groundbreaking technique of writing with the nondominant hand for brain balancing, finding innate wisdom, and developing creative potential. • This thirty-fifth anniversary edition includes a new introduction and an appendix listing the many venues that have adopted Capacchione's methods, including public schools, recovery programs, illness support groups, spiritual retreats, and prisons. • The Creative Journal has become a mainstay text for college courses in psychology, art therapy, and creative writing. It has proven useful for journal keepers, counselors, and teachers. Through doodles, scribbles, written inner dialogues, and letters, people of all ages have discovered vast inner resources. ––– "This book has had an extraordinary effect on my life. I have adapted its ideas in my coaching work with both teens and adults, and the self empowerment that it promises from using both hands to dialogue with feelings, thoughts and dream etc is startling and almost instantaneous. I watch people go silent and relaxed when I encourage them to be playful and allow all sorts of scribbles, graffiti, diagrams or scribbles to emerge in exploring their inner life. The quality of deep absorption and effective self listening, is something that no verbal counseling has achieved in my own personal experience. One teen started writing with deep concentration about her own interests, with my guiding questions about when she could follow her own ideas up and what would support her doing so. For a whole hour she wrote and wrote. Two years later, with no added support, she had changed from having been a troubled, depressed, failing student, to achieving top grades and was optimistically planning the start of her future career. She had not even needed to speak about this to her parents. This is liberation through self belief, and the mystery comes at the heart of this book through using its practical, easy activities available to all - a new self help movement rooted in whole brain neuro-science is on its way." –– GLÖM INTE ATT TITTA PÅ ALLA MINA ANDRA BÖCKER! –– Samma fraktpris oavsett hur många böcker du beställer!
