Let all who have eyes learn to see, let all who have ears learn to listen. The world is rumbling and whirling about us. Elke Scholz will teach us how to marvel at this world and ultimately how to live in it.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFrom Lisa Herman, Ph.D., MFT, Registered Expressive Arts Therapist, Director Creative Expression, Sofia University, Palo Alto, California: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eElke Scholz is a courageous woman who through her own life's unfolding has learned to sit with a difficult experience and hold this experience through the arts. Since the first edition of this book, Elke has continued experimenting with how to 'sit in the swamp' and move through the dark places, not knowing what's to come. Through a combination of meditation practices, words of wisdom, and easy-to-follow processes, the reader will find unexpected paths to increasing his or her own creative potential.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Artist's Reply\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/26\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780973602340\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 276\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.82lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.58d","brand":"Elke Scholz","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52491322622133,"sku":"9780973602340","price":28.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_ba9cd1a5-f5b6-4d20-9f61-b2d69b02d3dc.jpg?v=1777995738","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/loving-your-life-an-illustrated-how-to-book-on-becoming-who-you-are-and-loving-it-through-passionate-create-living-9780973602340","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
