Julia Cameron, author of 'The Artist's Way', shares wisdom and practices from her new book, 'Write for Life: Creative Tools for Every Writer'. Julia Cameron, hailed by the New York Times as “The Queen of Change,” is credited with starting a movement in 1992 that has brought creativity into the mainstream conversation—in the arts, in business, and in everyday life. She is the best-selling author of more than fourty books, fiction and nonfiction; a poet, songwriter, filmmaker and playwright. Commonly referred to as “The Godmother” or “High Priestess” of creativity, her tools are based in practice, not theory, and she considers herself “the floor sample of her own toolkit.” 'The Artist's Way' has been translated into fourty languages and sold over five million copies to date. Joel Fotinos has been a publishing professional for many years, as well as a minister and author. After 21 years as a Vice-President and Publisher at Penguin Random House, Joel joined Macmillan to start a new mind/body/spirit imprint called St. Martin's Essentials. He and Julia have worked together for 26 years so far, and hope for many years to come.

For those who know Mark Nepo's work he needs no introduction. For those who are not yet familiar with his work, Mark Nepo has been called “one of the finest spiritual guides of our time,” “a consummate storyteller,” and “an eloquent spiritual teacher.” A bestselling author, he has published twenty-three books and recorded sixteen audio projects. His books have been translated into more than twenty languages. Recent work includes Surviving Storms (St. Martin's Essentials, 2020) and Drinking from the River of Light, a Nautilus Award Winner (Sounds True, 2019). I have been following Mark's work for over 30 years. Yet, I first connected with him when my music was used on his two audio programs for Sounds True, Reduced To Joy, and Inside The Miracle. Since then I have had the honor and privilege of being part of a number of his mentoring circles for authentic living. Mark has a unique capacity to bring the inevitable complexities, challenges and inherent paradoxes of life into an intimate, clear and accessible focus through the power of story, metaphor and his timeless poetry. In this episode, we dive into his most recent book, "Surviving Storms: Finding the Strength to Meet Adversity". It's as all of his books a powerful, deeply intimate read about becoming truly ourselves in times of adversity, challenges and suffering. Today, more than ever, Mark's timeless wisdom is a welcome healing balm and lantern to light our way through the dark.

The Gift of Rumi: Experiencing the Wisdom of the Sufi Master (St. Martin's Press, 2022), written by Dr. Emily Jane O'Dell was published by St. Martin's Press in 2022. In this rich and insightful book, Dr. O'Dell takes us through her own spiritual and physical travels, as well as gives us historical and Islamic mystic context to help us understand and cherish the words of Rumi on a deeper level. As one of the world's most loved poets, Rumi's poems are celebrated for their message of love and their beauty, but too often they are stripped of their mystical and spiritual meanings. The Gift of Rumi offers a new reading of Rumi, contextualizing his work against the broader backdrop of Islamic mysticism and adding a richness and authenticity that is lacking in many Westernized conceptions of his work. Author Emily Jane O'Dell has studied Sufism both academically, in her work and research at Harvard, Columbia, and the American University of Beirut, and in practice, learning from a Mevlevi master and his whirling dervishes in Istanbul. She weaves this expertise throughout The Gift of Rumi, sharing a new vision of Rumi's classic work. At the heart of Rumi's mystical poetry is the “religion of love” which transcends all religions. Through his majestic verses of ecstasy and longing, Rumi invites us into the religion of the heart and guides us to our own loving inner essence. The Gift of Rumi gives us a key to experiencing this profound and powerful invitation, allowing readers to meet the master in a new way. Meg Gambino is an artist and activist currently working as the Client and Community Relations Manager at a local nonprofit focused on ending hunger in North Penn. Her life mission is to creatively empower others by modeling reconciliation between communities of people and people on the margins. Find her on Instagram @megambino.

Inner and outer storms can be transformational agents. Nepo advises us that we must not skip over pain, breakage, and loss. He goes on to say, “And, we must not drown in it or make a permanent residence of it. We have to find the corridor of aliveness that allows us to process our experience and land in the opening the storm has made in us and around us.” Mark Nepo is a poet and philosopher and a most eloquent spiritual teacher.

Tipping The Scales Toward Love & Goodness In this beautiful conversation with poet, writer, and teacher Mark Nepo, we begin exploring Mark's beautiful take on what it means to be embodied. Throughout the conversation, we were blessed with Mark's soulful readings of several of our favorites of his poems. We discuss how care can erase the walls we keep building between us, and how using our imagination in service of a more beautiful world is so needed in a time of polarized divisiveness. It's our generation's turn - are we going to make a world rooted in love or rooted in fear and violence? Mark talks about the spiritual journey through the metaphor of a flower - not getting anywhere, but unfolding from the inside out. Mark speaks to a quote from William Blake: “Straight is the road to improvement. Crooked is the road to genius,” as well as looking at the original definition of genius, and affirming that we each carry genius. Mark shares many stories from his book More Together than Alone, about the power of building community. Mark also shares a potent story about literacy in the Dark Ages in Europe - only 10% of the population was literate. 10% of the people kept literacy alive! What if we commit to being and nourishing the 10% who keep literacy of the heart and soul alive during these challenging times? We hope you find deep nourishment in this beautiful conversation. Mark Nepo is a poet and spiritual teacher who has taught in the fields of poetry and spirituality for over 40 years.

Mary Gauthier was twelve years old when she was given her Aunt Jenny's old guitar and taught herself to play with a Mel Bay basic guitar workbook. Music offered her a window to a world where others felt the way she did. Songs became lifelines to her, and she longed to write her own, one day. Then, for a decade, while struggling with addiction, Gauthier put her dream away and her call to songwriting faded. It wasn't until she got sober and went to an open mic with a friend did she realize that she not only still wanted to write songs, she needed to. Today, Gauthier is a decorated musical artist, with numerous awards and recognition for her songwriting, including a Grammy nomination. In Saved by a Song: The Art and Healing Power of Songwriting (St. Martin's Essentials, 2021), Mary Gauthier pulls the curtain back on the artistry of songwriting. Part memoir, part philosophy of art, part nuts and bolts of songwriting, her book celebrates the redemptive power of song to inspire and bring seemingly different kinds of people together. The Associated Press named Mary Gauthier one of the best songwriters of her generation. Her album Rifles & Rosary Beads was nominated for a Grammy award for Best Folk Album and Record of the Year by the Americana Music Association. Her songs have been recorded by dozens of artists, including Boy George, Blake Shelton, Tim McGraw, Bettye Lavette, Kathy Mattea, Amy Helm and Candi Staton. Saved by a Song is her first book. She lives in Nashville. Morris Ardoin is author of STONE MOTEL – MEMOIRS OF A CAJUN BOY (2020, University Press of Mississippi), which was optioned for TV/Film development in 2021. A communications practitioner, his work has appeared in regional, national, and international media.

Mary Gauthier was twelve years old when she was given her Aunt Jenny's old guitar and taught herself to play with a Mel Bay basic guitar workbook. Music offered her a window to a world where others felt the way she did. Songs became lifelines to her, and she longed to write her own, one day. Then, for a decade, while struggling with addiction, Gauthier put her dream away and her call to songwriting faded. It wasn't until she got sober and went to an open mic with a friend did she realize that she not only still wanted to write songs, she needed to. Today, Gauthier is a decorated musical artist, with numerous awards and recognition for her songwriting, including a Grammy nomination.

In today's podcast I want to share with you a study group discussion on the teachings of Paul Selig's Guides with Podcast host Cindy Jarvis. Kristina is the moderator of the discussion along with the book club's attendee's who have agreed to share this recording. This is an advanced discussion of the reality of consciousness in our physical experiences. We discuss in detail what this means and how we can inculcate the teachings into our every day reality. About the book author:Paul was born in New York City and received his master's degree from Yale. He was the last person, as an academic, that thought he would be doing this kind of work. In 1987 Paul had a spiritual experience that left him clairvoyant & clairaudient. Today he is considered one of the foremost contributors to the field of channeled literature working today. Deepak Chopra says Paul is the authentic forward truth straight from the source field.”  BEYOND THE KNOWN: REALIZATIONA Channeled Textby Paul Selig - https://paulselig.com/Paperback, 304 pages.

You know when you hear the truth, which for me is also a function of resonance when you just can't poke holes in it no matter how hard you try. Listen to this very special call and you'll quickly experience what I am writing about here. Paul's ability to attune to this 'upper room' as he describes it gives you access to this next level of clarity and the freedom that ensues from being in accord with this vibrational state. On this call, you'll also... Learn from the guides a very profound and perhaps life-changing perspective on forgiveness Discover why evil or darkness prevails Receive an extraordinary attunement transmission that may, as it did me, put you in a visceral state of flow with a new level of creation These transmissions are truly next level and it is with great honor that I feel blessed to be able to share Paul and the wisdom from the Guides in this amazing community. About Paul Selig Paul Selig considers himself a “radio,” one attuned to frequencies that are in consonance with the Divine. A spiritual awakening in 1987 left the young New York University instructor, who had recently earned a master's degree from Yale, with the ability to see the changing lights, or auric field, around people. Selig also became clairaudient—hearing the voice of guides who are always with him, offering spiritual truths. The guides speak in a flow of channeled information. Selig's eight books—the latest of which is Alchemy: A Channeled Text (St. Martin's Essentials, 2020)—spring directly from the guides, who share teachings for spiritual evolution that align with inner knowing. The award-winning medium and intuitive teaches workshops all over the world including annual residencies at the Esalen Institute and the Kripalu Center. He also offers frequent livestream seminars.
