Oh my god!c Thank you-thank you thank you! You are such a beautiful person. you have inspired me beyond words. i wanted to see what other ppl doing the artists way had to say and stumbled across you- i have about 4 videos about my experience with the morning pages ....i upload psychedelic vlog#4 today. You have inspired me soooo much! I have subscribed and wish you all the very best- sincerely! This is a truly magical experience for me. I am now on week 6 day 1 and this is and has changed me so very much- its totally opened me up. Thank you for sharing id love to hear mpre from you.
WOOOOW!!!!! This comment 💖💖💖
I had to read it twice just to digest it properly.
Thank you soooo much - these are such special words and I am so pleased you liked my video.
Well done for making it so far in the course, it seems many people stop after a couple of weeks. It really is an amazing, life-changing course if done in its entirety.
I just wrote my morning pages this morning (I do them every morning) and some great stuff came out. They really are medicine.
I wish you well and thank you so much for your lovely comment, it really gives me the confidence to make more videos 🙏🏼
PS - I will check out your videos!
@@LauraTryUK I admire your authenticity because it is honest and very attractive. I felt depressed and angry for the first 3 weeks maybe 4....thats uncoiling and you are glowing in week 12! you are! It shows. Keep on keeping on! Your channel is great just stay true to your authenticity!
You’re so kind, thank you so much. You really made me happy with your comments 🙏🏻
@@LauraTryUK Its the truth. :) Too much negativity in the world.
Hey kunal bhai. Mai bhi start karne wala kal se, any advice?
When you said you wished you’d found this book earlier, I always think, these things come along at the right time.
Hey Vicki, yes I nagree.
I was aware of the book for years!
There is a small element of disappointment that I didn't make the time and effort for the course earlier. But now I've done it I am so thankful. Also, in the past I didn't have the time or space.
Have you done The Artist's Way yourself?
@@LauraTryUK I did 2 weeks and then life got in the way. I have kept up the morning pages, mostly. My plan is to start it again and commit to do it now work has calmed down :)
That’s great news!
12 weeks is a big commitment! I had things thrown at me so much throughout but my advice (even though you didn’t ask 😆) would be fight through, even if you miss several days, just pick it back up and get it done. Truly transformative 🙌🏼
Also thanks for the original comment and chat x
Someone left the book behind when I moved into her apartment, and I gave it away. Nearly 3 years later, I saw the book at a giveaway and started the program. I had to laugh at the part with the man who wanted to go into film school somehow got in through work, quit in fear, and realized years later that he should have done it. It was the same for my book. It was like a boomerang; it was there, I gave it away, and it came back to me at this specific moment in my life.
@@vickismith8533 are you done now?
I started crying so hard when you were talking about a letter from your 80 yo self
I’m on week one and amazed how the tasks changed how I see myself. It uncovered all of the childhood trauma and why I see myself in a negative light, bullying and hating myself.
I’m so happy to be somewhat rid of those chains now and this is only chapter one. I’m really excited to go through this program and videos like this help me be even more encouraged!
Thank you!
You will probably never see this comment but I want to thank you for making this video. It has been a great encouragement to me. I ordered this book and should have it in a few days. I'm a little nervous. I'll soon be 67 years old and wonder if there is hope for me to get motivated doing my art. You have convinced me to have a go honest go at this book. Thank you so much. I loved your brutal honesty and your energy. And may I say I loved your hair and all the cuteness each time different😊I pray that you are still riding the tide of daily pages and creativity 🙏❤️
Susan from Arizona🏜️
Susan, I have seen your comment and thank you for writing it!
I am still doing Morning Pages - they are my saviour.
And I am able to make a full-time job by creating videos here on TH-cam - all thanks to this wonderful book and Julia Cameron's beautiful talent 💫
I am wishing you well and would love to hear what you think to the course when you are doing it please.
Did you do the course? How did it go? I'm in my sixties and am thinking about doing this as well!
Had me in tears at the end! I've attempted the course twice but never had the discipline to push through when I didn't feel like it. You've inspired me to commit to the whole thing. I feel like my (dream) life depends on it.
😭😭😭 (those are there because you crying makes me want to cry 😆) Plesse finish the course, you owe it to yourself. I know you can do it! 💫
Thank you for the comment xxxx
Laura, it is easy to see what a big heart you have, and also how hard you can be on yourself. It’s been my way, too. Your weekly progress really did yourself proud. Personal growth and creativity will only come through being there for all of who you are including the very worst times not just the fun stuff. This is how we experience our life. I read this book in the 90’s and loved it, and still have it. The spiritual path has been my basic type as a writer and artist/ graphic designer, painter, all my life and now in my 60’s. The learning, loving, and creative urge never leaves those of us who are committed to being fascinated with being awesome right here right now, every day! 🙏📖✝️💟🇦🇺
Procrastination is just a coping mechanism : you will pass it by ❤
I’ve just found your TH-cam channel and I find very inspired by what you are sharing, please keep posting !❤
Synchronic stumbling upon your video this morning. You inspire me at 64 to return to Julia's creative processes that censor repeatedly blocked with "after you do this first" and as you say, conditioning oneself to do it all and do it perfectly and then not doing at all. Whether it be work, children, house or where and when--time to let go of shadow artist tendencies. Your vulnerability and authenticity enCOURAGEs!
Hi I just discovered your channel tonight , and I watched already three videos, this one is number four, I happy I discovered your channel, I love it, your voice is relaxing, and I am proud of you expressing your self, so much love to you
I have been procrastinating on doing the artists way for decade or more. Yet I bought the book yesterday and was wondering if it was worth the time commitment. Your beautiful vlog and this post has helped me decide to jump in. Oh, and by the way, you are great at this creative medium.
WOW! Thank you so much Laura, for opening up and allowing us to be a part of your very personal journey. I got this book about 30 years ago on recommendation of an Acting coach and I'm sad to say I didn't follow through. My 18 year old is a Dance Major at University and her Professor recommended it. She started telling me about it and I was like..."Oh, my goodness, I have that book upstairs in my library." She asked if she could borrow it, and I said I would gladly get her her very own copy because after watching your video, I am so inspired to crack this book open again and stay the course. When the student is ready, the Teacher will Appear! Knock Knock....Come on In! XO Thank you for your video - you are helping change lives, and THANK YOU to Julia Cameron for sharing her brilliance. Onward we go! (Heather Campbell)
Your videos are very good. At 65 myself basically what it all pretty much comes to be more free is to practically forget the opinions of others about ourselves...once you get rid of that negative and critical voice of "others" you will get a LOT BETER AND FREEER ...than before...this does not means to just do anything crazy it means doing authentically what you really love to do..and or to be...thanks for your honest videos
What a great video!
I actually started the course not long ago, and I want to use this comment to talk in detail about each week, because I'm already writing A LOT on paper thanks to the morning pages, so this will feel fresh and different. I'm stil on day 7, but I'll keep editing the comment each week.
I used to love drawing, painting and trying all types of crafts when I was a kid, but due to a lack of encouragement, a lot of misconceptions about artists (you're gonna be poor, it's useless, if you're not a genius by a certain age you might as well stop doing it) and who knows what else (I'm sure this book will help me discover it) I lost my creativity and love for art. I miss it very much.
Week 1: I would say it was a successful first week. I did the morning pages every day, 3 pages like I'm supposed to, had my artists date and did every single task. I wasn't feeling my best and the weather was not great, so my date was very simple. I put on a movie I had wanted to watch for a while, prepared myself some good snacks and just enjoyed myself. I enjoyed the morning pages most days (yesterday I didn't, I didn't sleep well so I was tired and cranky). I also enjoyed the tasks. I completed all of them because they were enjoyable and I had a lot of free time. I cried with two of the exercises while remembering the people who have hurt my creativity. I remembered some things about my past that I had forgotten. That was very cool and pushed me to continue with the tasks, because although it was painful it was very insightful and I know this kind of pain really helps. I've only experienced this with therapy, so this looks very promising. With all that said... I haven't noticed any changes with my creativity. I'm still blocked. I'll continue to be consistent. I'm very excited to start week 2 tomorrow, and also for new year's.
Week 2: This week wasn't as impactful as the first one, but it went very well. I did all the morning pages, all the exercises and I went on a proper artist date. I went out to eat by myself and then went to a comic book store I like and checked out artbooks and comics (It had been ages since I had a moment like that for myself). I really liked the chapter, it was very interesting and I related to the things she explained, and everything went well since I did all the tasks, but the difference with the first one is that i didn't really feel any strong emotions. I expect this to change at some point. But I'm still going strong, very motivated.
Week 3: I'm writing this on Monday, January 17th. I've already started the fourth week, but I forgot to write about the third one. I was very busy with final exams, which made.me stay up late some days. I didn't almost all the morning pages (I missed a day) and I did all the exercises (today, 2 days later than I should have) but I forgot about my artists date. To summarise, this week was a bit of a mess, but I'll make sure to organise my time better and do well on the fourth week. I still enjoy the morning pages, and the exercises are more helpful than I thought. Then help me discover new things about myself, and they're very interesting and quite fun in my opinion. I feel myself making small progress.
Week 4: I definitely did better than the previous week. I completed all the exercises, I did all the morning pages and I did my artists date, even if it was super small (grabbing some snacks and watching Bluey for the first time). The weather is starting to get better to next week I'll go on a proper date. This week I felt...good. I feel weird cause I think the exercises are what's helping me the most. I cried while writing a letter to my 80 year old self. And also while writing a letter to my 8 year old self. I keep feeling more and more...free. And I'm really starting to believe that maybe creating isn't selfish and shouldn't be painful or a struggle. I feel like I keep making progress. I'm close to getting unblocked and being able to create art. I'm gonna start reading week 5 now.
Week 5: I've started to see changes. For the first time in a long time, I suddenly felt the urge to draw, so I did. It was only a couple doodles, but it was something, and I'm very happy about it. I'm trying to open up a bit more on the morning pages, and this week I wrote them 4 out of the 7 days. My artists date was fun, I finally went out and just had a nice time by myself, went to my favourite book store and looked at artbooks and comics, had some cake at a nice coffee shop and took a long walk. I don't think I've experienced any serendipity yet, Like Julia mentions, but I keep paying attention in case that I do. This week has been good,I hope the next one is too.
Week 6: I liked the chapter, but this week has been the least productive for me. I was very busy and on top of that I caught a bad cold, so I did only half of the morning pages, less than half of the exercises and didn't go on the artist date. This hasn't discouraged me, it was a bad week but I'm excited for the next, I'm gonna start reading week 7 now and tomorrow I'll wake up extra early for my pages. I'll start doing the exercises and organising the date today, so everything is easier.
Week 7: I barely have time to write this before I forget, but this week has been great. I'm back on track, and I feel like the chapter really resonated with me. I experienced serendipity, and I found a great art store that also has drawing classes. I know where I have to go now. This will be my starting point. I enjoyed the part about perfectionism a lot
Week 8: I think this has been my favourite chapter until now. Either this one or the previous one. I felt like she was talking directly to me, so it was very hard to read, because she knows my excuses, and she knows my fears. This chapter really shook me, and I would like to reread weeks 7 and 8 if I have doubts in the future. I think I am making progress, though I am still very afraid.
Week 9: Every week has impacted me more than the last one since I reached week 6, and this one made me cry. It made.me realise how far my fear goes, and how much I self sabotage myself because of my fear. For the first time, I fully understand why I am blocked. From the reasons why it started and the people who led me to become this way through their actions, to the way I try to evade myself and sabotage my journey in the present. I am still afraid, but it's empowering to know that I understand that fear better now. Bow, whenever I interrupt my own growth at least I'll know I'm doing it and I'll be able to do something about it. I'm very excited for week 10.
Week 10: This week wasn't nearly as good as the previous 2. I liked the chapter, although it didn't impact me as much as the previous ones. The main problem is that I'm self sabotaging myself. Now I realise when I'm doing it, which I think is amazing in itself, but it sucks that I did it this week. I didn't go on the artists date and I only did the morning pages 3 out of 7 days. I did almost all of the exercises though. I've only got 2 weeks left and I have to make the most of them, so I'll try my best to avoid doing it. I really want this to work...
Good on you for keeping up with the course and these updates. I look forward to reading more.
@@meganmoses4314 Thank you!! This reminds me to me consistent😊
Thank you for sharing so openly with us! I've just found your channel and I'm loving it. 😊
Found your channel a couple of months ago and can't believe how many of the challenges you've done are things that are things I've either tried or wanted to try. Find it very motivating to see the results of your challenges, thanks for your hard work and channel 👍
This is one of the best videos I've ever seen on TH-cam. I could feel your emotion and relate to the things you said about creativity, and now I'm really excited to start when I recieve my book in the mail. Thank you :D
Thank you for your honesty and vulnerability. This video helped me tremendously. I’m so excited to take up this course now. 😄
I'm about to start the course on Sunday and I found your video so helpful! I'm a bit nervous, but I appreciate having a sense of the experience of someone who has gone before me. Feeling inspired. Thank you!
Oh my god…this was the most meaningful video I think I’ve ever seen on TH-cam. I was doing a search because I had just found this book and started it. I cried right along with you.
I struggle with a great deal of anxiety so I have so much admiration for you sharing your experience. That was so brave and I thank you for your courage and for sharing this. Namaste 🤗
Wow. Thank you so much for sharing this. And now 2 years later you’re at 100K and I’m sure just as lovely 👏🏽
you definitely made me cry, you are beautiful ❤️ and definitely made me excited to continue this book
I'm so happy that you made this video. I bought the audio version of the book a couple of weeks ago, and started writing the morning pages immediately. I've always journaled, so I loved having another reason to write. With all the emotions I've been going through with it, I was concerned that something was wrong with me. I'm glad I'm not alone. Thank you for making this video. I really needed it.🙏
P.s. Had to subscribe
This is the first video I’ve known of you! Was looking up videos to get me remotivated to restart my morning pages. I have started a couple times. I must say that I sometimes am scared of all the stuff that will come out. Yet, I also know it will help on my continued transformation.
Thank you for your vulnerability, it’s encouraged me and inspired me.
Know that what you’re doing resonates. You are on the right path for you and to reach others.
Sending light and thanks 💫
I love and appreciate your sincerity. I just bought the book and wrote my first 3 pages early this morning and so far so good. Thank you for sharing the gem. Stay blessed, Laura.
Hi Laura! I have had the book for a few years and i havent dared to do it. Your beautifully made video and your vulnerability and unfolding have given me encouragement. Thank you so much ❤️
You shouldn't struggle with making TH-cam videos.
Other people are writing books and putting your videos out to the world is so beneficial for so many people of all ages and hopefully also for yourself!
Synchronisity is a sign for being on your very own track.
Being very grateful❤
i came across this book at the end of september, with 12 weeks/3 months left in the year.. i dont know what else to think besides God is trying to talk to me and help me, because what a coincidence that it offers 12 weeks of exercise and there is 12 weeks left to wrap up the year. I am on week 2 and came across this video; it touched me and encouraged me to commit and finish it to see where i go and whom i turn into. You just gained a subscriber out of me. God bless you and best of luck in the next journey of your life.
Dear Laura! I just came across this book and I plan to take on this great challenge. Thank you for sharing your experience as it only inspires me more to take the plunge and complete this special journey. I wish you all the best!
I have had the book for a few years and am finally ready to start the course. Thank you!
I’m so inspired by you!! Starting my morning pages tomorrow. Thank you for this video!!❤
Dearest Laura, I am now on week 7 of the artist way which I started a little bit before I saw your video. As I watch you propel forward with your videos it encourages me and reminds me that all I'm learning is true. Along with being grateful to be able to watch it in motion I am very proud to be one of your students. You have shown me of how much potential that I have by watching you grow. Thank you again.
I saw and commented on this video about 8 months ago after I had failed to finish the Artist Way at around week 6. Well now, I've started the course again at am once again at week 6, feeling disconnected again. I'm so glad I found this video again, because I really really want to finish it and experience the awakening that you have in your video. I felt the same in the beginning, connected to the course and emotional, then for some reason week 5 got busy and i lost my connection to it and it feels like a battle every day to do the morning pages. This video spoke to me 8 months ago and it is really inspiring me again now. I hope your journey since finishing the course has continued to be full of creativity. Thank you for making this video! :)
Powerful! 💥. I’m surely getting the book after seeing this. Thanks for being so open and honest with us.
Laura, thank you so much for sharing this experience. It’s so relatable, vulnerable, and inspiring, let alone well-presented and structured. The analogy of a chained-up animal that you mentioned in the Week 4 video diary made me so emotional. I already ordered the whole bundle. Can’t wait to cut those chains and run free, as you put it. Funny enough, your video about reigniting creativity and making stuff actually made me write this comment. I’ve been watching TH-cam videos for years and years and can’t really remember when I engaged. Well, here I am not just doing the mental chatter but typing my thoughts out and engaging. And I haven’t even started the course. Pumped and humbled. Thank you again, Laura.
Here’s to creativity!
Aw when you said through tears you were looking to week 5 , I cried and laughed for you. I am an artist , suffering painting blockage right now so turned to the book which I have had for years , you have convinced me to do the course. Thanks
Book just arrived and sitting on my lap. I decided to listen to your video before starting, and I am glad that I did. Thank you for taking the time to make such a thorough and beautiful video.
Oh wow! I am so excited for you to have the book!
A truly magical and special book - it's beyond words.
Please do let you me know how you get on with the course. I'd say it's the perfect time to do it.
And thank you for taking the time to watch my video and write a comment 🙏🏼
This is a wonderful video! Thank you so much for sharing your journey!
Great video! I appreciate you sharing each week through your Artist’s Way journey! It was very enlightening for me to understand what the book is about.
Thank you for your video and vulnerability. This inspired me to just keep cracking on with the process. ❤
Thank you Laura you have completely inspired me to commit to doing the course. I've just bought the book. Keep Creating!
Thank you for such a helpful video. I have had the book for years and think now is the time to finally start!
Thank you so much for sharing your honesty and vulnerability. Very inspiring ✨️
Thank you. I'm getting ready to start my journey. I am finally ready!
Thank you for making this video. I decided to start this process when I wrap my current book which should be this week. I appreciate you giving me a bit of a preview.
Thank you so much for sharing your experiences with this and for being so honest. My friend and I have not heard of this book, but will add it to our reading list (as we share many motivational books together) and plan to add it to our list of challenges to undertake.
It's funny, but my friend and I are a similar age to you and have also found a renewed energy and drive to live the life we want. We have always been pretty motivated anyway, but it has gone to another level in recent years. It is great to watch your videos, be inspired by your journey and realise there are like-minded people out there, as we struggle sometimes with feeling like outsiders with our positive and driven mindset.
Anywho, thanks again LT, we really appreciate your videos and inspiration.
Thank you so much for sharing your journey. I hope you achieve every one of your dreams ❤
Oh wow! Yup. Just bought the audio book. Told my daughter and we'll get the physical for her. GREAT INSIGHT! Thanks for sharing! This was powerful and informative.
Aww big hugs to you on week 4, when I think of 80 year old me writing to me now it makes me emotional too. Thank you for sharing andbeing so real with us. Hmm "fearful of what we want" resonates too. This is another book / course I need to do.
Love your videos! I'm so happy you do them and thank you for an inspiration. Greetings from Poland! 😍
This is awesome! Thanks so much for sharing. I've been struggling to do my morning pages. I'll do them for a day, skip a day, do them for 2 days, skip 2-3 days. Then I think "Aww to heck with it. I need to start over" then procrastinate starting over. I love your approach and attitude and I do need to commit and just do it. Thanks again for all the perspective about your experiences.
I am 38 and you are my mentor🌸 Please don’t stop to shed light to our path. Love you💕
Thanks for sharing your journey. It means so much to see your peaks and valleys. I am going to read this book.
This is a beautiful video. Thank you ♥️ my boyfriend found this book in a cool used book store and bought it for me.
I’m really excited to do this and commit to completing it. Way to go and congratulations on completing this!
Thank you for making this video I bought this book ten years ago and never started reading it only finding the courage to now. What you said in week eleven is so profound I felt like you were speaking directly to me, I realise I need to create and when I don’t, everything falls apart in my life and I’m not the best version of myself when I’m not creating. Thank you for sharing with us this invaluable lesson❤❤❤❤
Love all your videos! You are one of my favourite creators! :)
That transition to week 5 was gold, keep up the good work you are precious! Much love
Hey Wilson, thank you so much for watching my video and for your comment.
Crikey - week 4 was a big week, wasn't it!? 🙃
Thank you for your lovely words 💖
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏Thank you for sharing your experience with The Artist's Way course...I have the book and have started and stopped a few times. I recently started but as I told someone that I'm doing the course I was told I'm doing too many things at once as I was on a seven day cleanse. I then stopped during the first day of the first week. Then I felt to reconnect with my fashion sewing and felt just to play on the sewing machine with some music...your video was shorting out for me to select and you have really got me back on track to recommence with the course. I replayed your video and feel so inspired to do this as I'll be sixty this summer. I do night shift and finish 7am so I'll still do the morning pages from around 7.30am. Well done that you stuck it out! I also want to load up my own TH-cam channel but like what you mentioned about the voices this was happening. Anyway, thank you and thank you Julia Cameron. 🙏🧡
Thanks Laura, had no idea you had made this video and thought I had watched everything on your channel- so nice surprise when I was looking for a review for this book to have your face pop up!
I LOVE your vids! You have inspired me in two different ways this week - the first was the high protein meal plan and then to do the Artists Way (I have had the book in the cupboard for about twenty years and had a few lukewarm goes at it). When you explained about the synchronicity aspect, that helped me to understand how powerful it is. I told myself half way through this video, 'why bother trying this again, you will probably give up', but then I watched to the end and just seeing how effective it can be, when you fed back the impact it had on you, has motivated me - I am not very good with not knowing where I am going, so this was just what I needed!! Both videos are informative, honest and you are so open hearted! Big thanks from me and keep up the amazing work! 🥰
Thank you so much for sharing this 🥰
WOWSA! The last few minutes of your video made me CRY! You are living life to the fullest and there is nothing more to this life than that! I'm so inspired by you. I can feel your wonderful energy all throughout your video. Thank you so much for sharing your story and such intimate and vulnerable parts of yourself, along with the powerful self you displayed in the last few moments of this video.... that which you've allowed yourself to become. YOU.
I have been meaning to read this book, which I had already purchased several years ago. But, it's been sitting on my bookshelf collecting dust rather than memories in my life. I needed to hear your insistent urging...JUST DO IT & DO IT NOW!!! You are so right.... we don't want to reach an age that we later regret not doing that which we want to do in life. There is no better time than the present. So, I'm going to do it! I'm going to start Morning Pages. THANK YOU! You are a beautiful soul and you've touched many lives.
my therapist gave me this book last year to help me get in touch with my emotions (and therefore regain access to my creativity) and i wasnt ready to start it. Now I am, and I'm a bit scared but I know its what I need to do. I really appreciated that you talked about missing a week or feeling disconnected some weeks and talking about learning discipline with it and those are all things I really needed to hear/see. I might even try recording video updates even if I never plan to post them. I'm always worried that if I dont do everything perfect I can't continue it and I realize that that sense of defeat is the censor. I may watch your video weekly just to help me pull through. so thank you!
What an awesome video Laura. You are True Pro!!! God bless you.
Watching your video of your journey was very inspiration and emotional for me. Thank you for sharing!!
I sure am glad that you are making videos.
Wonderful video Laura - thank you!
Thanks for this video. It was what I needed in this moment
What an amazing video. Thank you so much for making this. Your channel is so inspirational and I find you such a joy to watch :)xx
Thank you so much for the lovely comment Maya 🙏🏼
I love the sound of this book... I think I've heard about some of the practices before (especially morning pages). The thing that always stops me from taking the leap and doing things like this is my own inability to stick at things. I have terrible staying power. I also don't even know what I would focus on... There are so many things I want to be creative with! I have only just found this channel and find all your videos so inspiring ❤️✨ maybe I will finally take the leap and try it out
This is so inspiring - thank you for sharing your journey with this book and your thoughts. Loving your videos too. Wish you well - stay creative :)
My husband bought me this book for Christmas and it all seemed really daunting until I watched your video. I love your videos and you are so beautifully genuine that I feel like I can trust this process now. Thank you, thank you, thank you. ❤
I’ve tried this several times over a couple of years and I only ever do the morning pages. I want to complete the course this time, I think this was enough to motivate me to push through ❤️
Thank you very much Laura for going through your experience, and encouraging us to do it, and stick with it! I just did my first day in first week!!
Did you continue?? How did it go?
You're very brave. Thank you for sharing your experience with this course. I haven't tried it, but listening to you makes me feel I must. Thank you.♥
Hey Lisa, you're so kind, thank you 🙏🏼
Making this video was the only way I knew how to do the course as it kept me accountable 😀
I hope you find some time to do it!
Truly inspiring🙌🏽 thank you for this !
Wow! What a beautiful video !! Thank you so much !!! :) I've just bought a book for everyone in my family ❤
Laura, I can’t even start typing because my eyes are filled with tears. The first words that comes to mind are “Thank You.” I stumbled across your video after searching and searching for “clarity” and I am so glad I found you. This morning was my very first morning pages entry and although I kept finding a lot of excuses to start writing I finally did it and it went well. I wrote 5 pages and felt fine ending my last sentence. Although I did well, I felt i needed something else, more “clarity” and that is when I found you. I have been going through an extremely rough time presently. Making decisions are very difficult. Especially when you are going through depression and to be so afraid of the uncertainty. Your video gave me that push. That clarity I have been looking for and I cannot thank you enough. Your last two sentences are what did it for me. Please know those two sentences are immensely powerful. Thank you so much. May God bless you every single day of your life and that you may be healthy, happy and strong when you reach 80 and may you continue to live way past that. Again, Thank You. All my best wishes to you, Marisol 🙏🌹❤️
Wow! Splendid video. I have had the book about 10 years and have not started the course. You have convinced me that it is something I should do. Thank You!
Hey, thanks for your comment.
Please do the course, it is very special indeed 💫
Laura, you are so sweet and authentic! I loved watching your video. I'm in the middle of week 4 and was really struggling until I came across your experience. "Just crack on" is definitely what's required right now! Thank you so much.
Hey Nadia, awesome you are on week 4!
Given my delay in replying perhaps you are now on week 6?
I found week 4 and 5 tricky.......
Thank you for commenting. I am so pleased you liked the mantra - I use it daily 😉
Please let me know how you get on xxxx
Thank you for making such a beautiful video.
Wow, emotional. That got me fighting the wee tear factory. Thank you for sharing. I have ordered the books and will be embarking with the family.
Hey David, thank you so much for your comment.
Yes, it did get a but emotional at times.
I wish you all the best with the course. Please let me know how you and the family get on 💫
This is a wonderful video , I cried just before you started to cry. Thank you for sharing ❤️- Shay
Hi Shay, you are the sweetest.
I hope it didn't make you sad xxxx
I am so pleased you liked the video xxxxx
This is a great video! Thank you! You look like you achieved a lot in your life with the little montage at the end! I’m 25 years old male from Australia so this is really inspiring! I just ordered the book. Thank you
Hey Zac, this is such a lovely comment, thank you so much.
I am really excited for you about getting the book.
Please let me know how you get on with it.
It is truly life changing 💫
Thank you so much for this detailed review which inspired me to get started.
This is such a good video! I got through the first for weeks of the book and was loving it, but then was struggling with the time commitment and my attention wandered. I stopped over a month ago now but this has made me want to go back to it.
This course is a huge time commitment! It really is such a fantastic course and my theory is that those who stop the course mid-way through are perhaps scared of what could happen if they carried on...... Missing you! xxxx
Thank you for an excellent video. I especially appreciate your weekly updates; really provides a deep perspective on the process you went through. I'm 64. At a crossroads. I believe I need this.
Hey there, it was my pleasure and thank you!
It's very powerful. Much time and effort required but the outcome is quite magical.
If you do it, please let me know how you get on 🙌🏼
Thank you for this. My friend messaged me to ask if I want to do this. I can stay it sounds intriguing but also scary, feels like a huge commitment, but also feels like a very rewarding one. Excellent video. Watch it all the way through
Thank you for your video, it's a big help! Greetings from Ireland
I'm 36 and I totally understand what you say about aging and creating. Thanks for sharing your experience. 😊
Interesting...came across your fasting vid...I've done in the last month two 36hr fasts even weight workout periods (I'm 70) and had a good experience...then I found your Artist Way experience which was encouraging. I've purchased the book twice over the years. One time I was doing an Artist day...and had an amazing spiritual experience. I was in an area of the City I've never been in before. I knew my way around the place? Then it hit me... my Mum and Dad lived there at the beginning of their Marriage, and Mum was pregnant with me ... it was like I was aware of the area even before I was born. Your well explained journey through Julia's book has inspired me to begin anew...thank you.
Wow, you really put a lump in my throat and had me rethinking my whole life and purpose in this video. I have picked up this book many times and written morning pages for a couple of days and then abandoned. The way you have presented this video is inspiring. Thank you :)
Hey Andrea, I really encourage you to complete the full course. It's a big commitment and hard at times, but truly life changing at the end 💫
LT, thanks for this video. I'm going to get the book (even tho the time commitment will require me to get up at 4:15 or 4:30 am, blech). I also started crying when you spoke about the letter from 80 yo LT. I love your channel and your personality! oh and your skin is so beautiful ❤
What a truly beautiful soul you have. Thanks so much for sharing and making all of your content it really makes a difference.
you are so kind, thank you so much 🙏🏼
Thank you beautiful 😍 for sharing. You have inspired me, your truly shining ❤
back in 2016 this book got me on track professionally - I reap results now. And I think it is time for a second round - and look deeper into what else my life is about. I know it will not let me down. Thank you Laura for reminding me about this book and inspiring me to come back to it. I love your videos and your personality! Keep it up!
super cool you did this in 2016 Agata, and that it put you on track! I look forward to doing the course again in the future to see what it brings up.
I really love your channel and am grateful for this transmission! Look forward to more videos :) The one I found just a few days ago was rowing across the Atlantic and I have been using some wisdom nuggets from that on the regular ! You're talented !
Thank you Emily 🙏🏼
Thank you! That was a beautiful video! I’m getting started tomorrow!
I'm so excited for you!!! Please let me know how you get on!
Brilliant and inspiring. Thank you. 🙏🏻
I love this 😊 thank you so much for your valuable feedback
