'The Artist's Way' Week 4: We Are Deprived | Defector
Briefly

In Week 4 of Julia Cameron's The Artist's Way, the concept of reading deprivation or media deprivation is introduced, encouraging participants to examine where they allocate their attention. The text features personal reflections from book club members on their experiences with the morning pages exercise. While some managed to consistently write daily, others struggled on weekends. This highlights the balance between creative practice and life's responsibilities, emphasizing the importance of routine in fostering creativity and self-awareness.
The reading deprivation challenge invites us to consider what demands our attention and how it influences our creativity and mental well-being.
Engaging with morning pages serves not only as a creative exercise but as a reflective practice, allowing us to process our thoughts and feelings.
