The Artist's Way: A Spiritual Path to Higher Creativity is a 1992 self-help book by American author Julia Cameron. The book was written to help people with creative recovery, which teaches techniques and exercises to assist people in gaining self-confidence in harnessing their creative talents. Cameron also discusses the connection between creativity, faith, and one's spiritual connection with God.
The book outlines a 12-week program with weekly readings, creative exercises, and daily assignments including "morning pages" of free writing. Each week builds upon the last and encourages readers to build creative habits. It encourages readers to follow the program in a group, and many groups spawned internationally to facilitate the course, including seminars and workshops hosted by Cameron herself.
