Week 3- Recovering a Sense of Power

The Artist’s Way --

Recovering a Sense of Power


This week may find you dealing with unaccustomed bursts of energy and sharp peaks of anger, joy, and grief. You are coming into your power as the illusory hold of your previously accepted limits is shaken. You will be asked to consciously experiment with spiritual open-mindedness.


KEY IDEAS:

Anger

“Anger is fuel.”


Synchronicity

“watch out what you pray for – you might just get it!”


Shame

“The act of making art exposes a society to itself.”


Dealing with criticism

“Artistic child abuse creates rebellion creates block.”



Detective work: An exercise

Page 73.

Growth

“Growth is an erratic forward movement: two steps forward, one

step back”


Read Chapter Three and do Tasks at the end (reserve tasks 8, 9, and 10 for the next class meeting)
Do the “Detective Work” on page 73.
Read “Basic Principles” daily
Read Affirmations daily
Write Morning Pages daily
Go on an Artist’s Date this week
