Writing Notes from the Universe, I know what it feels like when the words come through me, rather than from me; where they are my own, yet deeper; when the art of writing starts surprising you. Julia's Conscious Writing reveals how to reach the inner state which is outside space and time, to write that way consistently. If you have a message to share, read this book! (Mike Dooley, New York Times bestselling author) Writing is only incidentally about words - it is more fundamentally about showing up, paying attention, being authentic - and growing conscious. All this Julia McCutchen explains beautifully in her new book Conscious Writing. Don't miss it! (Eric Maisel, author of Coaching the Artist Within) Julia's own expansion of consciousness is here beautifully and brilliantly shared through her creative passion of writing. This refreshingly holistic approach will serve writers of all kinds in their quest to write from the heart with a true voice. And whilst she focuses on conscious writing, her clear, inspiring and practical guidance offers great and timely value for any and all creatively authentic expressions of the heart, mind and soul. Ultimately, this teaching applies to the wholeness of experiencing and embodying a fully conscious life. (Dr Jude Currivan, cosmologist, healer and author of HOPE: Healing Our People & Earth) A beautiful and profound exploration of the close connection between spirituality and creativity, full of practical exercises that will help to release your own creative potential and enrich your life as a whole. (Steve Taylor PhD, author of Waking From Sleep and The Calm Center) Human creativity has two components: logos and mythos. We scientists explain the creative process, the flow experience, and all that, but that's all logos. What the creative does with his/her creativity - the creative journey - is the unveiling of the all important mythos. How to travel your mythical journey consciously is the subject of Julia McCutchen's exciting book. Read and enjoy: this book will put you in readiness for your creative journey. I guarantee it. (Amit Goswami PhD, author of Quantum Creativity and Quantum Economics) In an era of information overload, learning to communicate effectively is an essential skill. Sourcing this communication in soul and authenticity, and expressing it with consciousness and creativity is a gift - bestowed on both yourself and those you share it with. This delightful book is a trusted guide to helping you write with grace and inspiration. It can help break you free from eruditions exactitudes and strained similes, and lead you to find new juices for a jubilant jaunt into the next wave of your craft as a conscious writer. (Marilyn Schlitz PhD, President Emeritus and Senior Fellow, Institute of Noetic Sciences and author of Death Makes Life Possible) Julia McCutchen's beautiful new book Conscious Writing will guide you to discover and express your authentic voice - both on the page and in your life. It's a truly wonderful book that will sit next to Writing Down the Bones and other classics on writing, and will be well-used by me! (Robert Holden, author of Happiness NOW and Shift Happens!) The wonderful insights and practices in this book, inspired by the perennial wisdom of spirituality and grounded in cutting-edge scientific research, will guide both new and experienced writers to reach deeper into the secret source of creativity within and return with something truly special as a gift to the world. (Tim Freke, author of The Mystery Experience) In Conscious Writing, Julia McCutchen presents a clear, elegant method for accessing your true voice and cultivating those key qualities that produce creative flow at will. Accompanied by scintillating descriptions and supportive findings from modern neuroscience to traditional mysticism, her cultivated approach is instantly applicable for published and novice writers alike. In fact, her Conscious Writing process can inspire clarity and productivity for any creative task in any industry - and in personal life - through the practice's multi-layered reconnection to that inner wellspring of deeper awareness. Conscious Writing unifies the fields of mindfulness, creativity and writing, and details the path that Julia has created through skillful synthesis of her meditative realization, writing success, publishing acumen and effective mentorship of other writers. The work you now hold is powerful, it is direct, and its exposition is revelatory of the very conscious creative process that Julia espouses. It provides rich resources for the working creative and for the spiritual practitioner alike. (Tao Semko, cross-cultural authority on transformational yoga, mysticism and non-dual contemplative practices, co-founder UmaaTantra.com and TaoSemko.com) A deeply heartfelt exploration of the writer's craft. (Stephen Harrod Buhner, award-winning author of Ensouling Language)
