So The Artist's Way - how was that for you? 12 weeks (13 for some) of wailing in our morning pages, the best Artist's dates ever (what was your favourite? Mine was falling asleep with my dog in the sun by a river. I came over all Thomas Hardy, but luckily not D H Lawrence...or perhaps not?)
What has worked for you? What hasn't? What are you taking away from this process?
And what next?
One of our big leapers has requested that she wants to keep using the Big Leap chat room to meet and work though the Artist Way some more - you're so welcome!
Thank you so much for taking this journey with me.

I have really enjoyed this course, it has been a real tonic.
I particularly liked the self nurturing aspect, especially in the form of artist's dates. One of my favourite dates was my most adventurous - a day trip to the Cotswolds. Artist dates gave me a chance to put me first instead of attending to others.
I have also learned that I don't need the money to sign up to a course to paint, I just bought some acrylic paints which cost a £1 from tesco and just started painting!
The morning pages were surprisingly fairly easy to do, until I reached a point around week 9 when I experienced some resistance. I realise that this resistance was me meeting my procrastinating self and not quite being able to get past it. For that reason I am going to continue the morning pages to help get past that block.
I have identified a project which I will work on for the next 90 days. I intend to have fun with it and see where it takes me.
Looking forward!
