A 6-week Artist's Way Program from legendary author Julia Cameron

A Washington Post and Publisher's Weekly Bestseller

"Cameron's fans will love this"—Publishers Weekly
The newest book from beloved author Julia Cameron, The Listening Path is a transformational journey to deeper, more profound listening and creativity. Over six weeks, readers will be given the tools to become better listeners—to their environment, the people around them, and themselves. The reward for learning to truly listen is immense. As we learn to listen, our attention is heightened and we gain healing, insight, clarity. But above all, listening creates connections and ignites a creativity that will resonate through every aspect of our lives.
Julia Cameron is the author of the explosively successful book The Artist's Way, which has transformed the creative lives of millions of readers since it was first published. Incorporating tools from The Artist's Way, The Listening Path offers a new method of creative and personal transformation.
Each week, readers will be challenged to expand their ability to listen in a new way, beginning by listening to their environment and culminating in learning to listen to silence. These weekly practices open up a new world of connection and fulfillment. In a culture of bustle and constant sound, The Listening Path is a deeply necessary reminder of the power of truly hearing.

      • bioText: Hailed by the New York Times as "The Queen of Change," JULIA CAMERON 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 forty 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 forty languages and sold over five million copies to date.

        October 5, 2020
        Cameron delivers an accessible, insightful addition to her The Artist’s Way workbooks with this take on how being a better listener can increase creativity. She begins by describing three “basic tools” that should be incorporated into daily life: writing every morning, artist’s dates (“a solo expedition to do something that enchants or interests you”), and walking. Other activities recommended include listening to the sounds in one’s home and environment, paying more attention in conversations with friends and family, and even tapping into messages from dead loved ones and personal heroes by simply addressing them in writing and asking questions. Cameron’s illustrative musings about her own process are presented alongside interviews with artists, writers, and other creatives about the role that listening plays in their lives and crafts. For instance, actress Jennifer Bassey compares attentive listening, the act of “reacting and responding,” to falling in love, and Cameron frequently laments the fact that when people talk over each other they “lose a valuable chance to learn.” Cameron’s fans will love this straightforward program.

        December 15, 2020
        Longtime creativity expert Cameron (It's Never Too Late to Begin Again, 2016) turns to the essential art of listening. She reminds readers of the importance of "Morning Pages" (emptying the mind by writing three stream-of-conscious pages each morning), daily walks (preferably solo), and a weekly "Artist Date" (a journey to somewhere that is mentally refreshing). She then sets out a six-week course that begins with listening to our environment (particularly the sounds of nature), listening to others (without interruptions), and listening to our higher selves (with compassion). She shares her conversations with artists, writers, actors, and other creative professionals about the importance of careful listening to their work and adds her own testimonies. In the remaining three weeks, Cameron challenges readers to stretch their perceptions. She encourages listening "beyond the veil" (by contacting spirit guides), listening to heroes (two of her favorites are Carl Jung and Bill Wilson, cofounder of AA), and listening to silence (particularly with meditation). Sprinkled throughout are thoughtful quotes and ""Try This" prompts. Cameron writes beautifully and sincerely. Although some readers may need to expand their belief systems, this is nevertheless a much-needed primer on opening ourselves to listening to others at a time when that is so badly needed.
