This journal was inspired by Julia Cameron's book The Artist's Way. According to Ms. Cameron, Morning Pages "is a daily practice that is a bedrock tool of creative recovery. Morning Pages are three pages of longhand, stream of consciousness writing, done first thing in the morning." Morning Pages, frankly, are healing and restorative. When done consistently, they will help center you and clear your mind, help you discover (or recover) your creativity, and deal with your inner critic. There are so many thoughts and unknowns swirling around in our heads that we need a way to capture and examine those thoughts for what they truly are. Morning Pages will help you discover the threads and themes that keep coming up in your life, allowing you to benefit from the clarity that was waiting to be had all along. This journal was designed to introduce you to Morning Pages and give you the space to begin your clarifying journey.(*Note - your Morning Pages journal should not be 'beautiful' because then you may feel that only 'real' writing should go in there; and this is not the goal at all!)
