In The Vein of Gold: A Journey to Your Creative Heart, Julia Cameron again draws from her extensive artistic and teaching experience to steer readers towards ever-widening creative horizons. This extraordinary book of learning through doing features inspiring teachings on the creative process and more than one hundred imaginative, involving and energising tasks. Each task engages readers in 'inner play', leading to authentic growth, renewal and healing. The Vein of Gold assures readers that creativity can be a spiritual path and a means of personal growth. Julia Cameron takes readers on 'a journey to the heart of creativity' through seven kingdoms: The Kingdom of Story, where language animates our guiding self-image. The Kingdom of Sight, where we honour our most personal feelings. The Kingdom of Sound, where we tune in to the melodic flow of creative life. The Kingdom of Relationship, where we sharpen the skills to choose companions. The Kingdom of Attitude, where we cast off negativity. The Kingdom of Spirituality, where we strengthen contact with the higher realms to discover unsuspected inner resources. The Kingdom of Possibility, where we inhabit our creative life vision. Whether you are already actively pursuing a creative enterprise or are just beginning to nurture your own creativity, this powerful book provides the innovative and practical tools for mining the vein of gold within you.

Quotes

    We have an experience of resonance, of “sounding out” our lives in relation to the physical world.
    Hawaiians speak of each of their islands as having a separate tone. My own experience is that each of them has a different vibration, like the after-sound when you have tapped a drumhead. All land has a tone to which we can respond, a note by which we can orient ourselves, like finding our place on a musical scale. In other words, the land has its own song and you will hear it as you walk. Not only that, by learning to hear the land’s song, you will recognize your own life song and learn what creates harmony and dissonance for you.

    The song still remains which names the land over which it sings.

    As a culture, we have confused velocity with accomplishment. We “run” ourselves ragged. Convinced that if we just do more and go faster we will succeed, we often lose the pulse of our own lives. We can find it again by walking
