Summary

Creativity is more than just self-expression—it’s a deeply personal journey that reflects the emotions, struggles, and experiences within. Yet, many artists, writers, and creatives find themselves blocked, held back by fear, self-doubt, perfectionism, and unresolved emotional wounds. Healing Through the Creative Self is a powerful workbook that blends Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy with creative practice, offering a structured path to overcome inner resistance and reconnect with the true artistic voice.
 
Using the IFS model, this book helps creatives identify and work with the different inner parts that shape their artistic process. The Inner Critic, Perfectionist, and Wounded Artist often dominate, leading to procrastination, imposter syndrome, and fear of failure. Through a combination of self-reflective exercises, journaling prompts, guided meditations, and creative practices, this workbook provides the tools to turn these inner struggles into sources of inspiration rather than obstacles.
 
Inside this book, you will discover how to:
 
Recognize and understand the emotional barriers affecting creative flow
 
Work with the Inner Critic instead of battling against it
 
Heal the Wounded Artist carrying past creative rejection or trauma
 
Overcome perfectionism, self-doubt, and creative resistance
 
Integrate Internal Family Systems therapy into creative work
 
Build a more compassionate relationship with yourself and your art
 
Featuring real-life case studies, personal stories, and step-by-step techniques, this workbook is designed for artists, writers, musicians, and anyone seeking emotional healing through creativity. Creativity and personal growth are deeply connected, and this book offers a practical, therapeutic approach to unlocking artistic potential and embracing creative confidence.
 
No matter where you are in your creative journey, Healing Through the Creative Self will help you reclaim your artistic freedom, break through emotional blocks, and cultivate a healthier, more fulfilling relationship with your creative process.
 
If you are ready to explore the connection between emotional well-being and artistic expression, this book will guide you toward healing and creative transformation.

Is male 'supremachism' really over? The pages you are holding in your hands sow doubts on the common belief that the governance of 'the macho' came to its end. As the proverb confirms, 'the old dies hard', despite the yet-to-improve individual and institutional efforts to achieve gender equality. With the serious tone this capital issue requires, the author debunks the myth of male supremacism as a phenomenon from a past and raises awareness of the subliminal survival of the supremachist ideological apparatus. Subtlety reveals as a key factor for the survival of subliminal supremachist campaigns, which threatens a promising future of non-discrimination. Essentially, democratic citizenship must pose itself a crucial question: Are current Western societies' concessions to feminism genuine or a cover by supremachism to survive in an ideologically volatile world?

“An invaluable tool for anyone wanting to deepen their connection not only to themselves but also to nature and the spirits that are all around. Joey Morris provides practical advice and techniques that offer a diverse and different way of connecting to the three worlds that are associated with Celtic beliefs.” —Jane Matthews, director of the World Divination Association   A revolutionary take on hedge witchery that focuses on what it means to reconnect with the sacred hedge in a modern world, Celtic Hedge Witchery—A Modern Approach teaches the ways, ideas, and methods of the hedgerow, so they become accessible even to those who cannot visit the physical locations themselves. Delving into secret liminal spaces, Morris expands the knowledge and understanding of what it means to truly embody the witchcraft life. She connects readers to the wildcrafting elements of plants and natural remedies, realigning the soul to the vibrations of the spiritual ecosystem to reconnect with the Earth and all her spirits. In a time when modernity, technology, and disconnection from the land has caused so many of us to feel lost and disheartened, Morris helps foster our kinship with the land.   Weaving together Morris’s personal witchcraft gnosis, Celtic Hedge Witchery focuses on embracing the shadows within ourselves as a reflection of sacred spaces. Morris offers a revolutionary take on what it means to be a hedge witch in the modern era and empowers us to “come home” to both the Earth and to ourselves. Spell work, recipes, meditative guides, and evocative poetry help guide us in connecting with Celtic deities of land, sea, and sky and in crossing the hedge into the Otherworld. Learn how to connect to your own natural witchcraft.Find the sacred landscape within yourself. Connect with plant and animal spirit allies within the hedge and benefit from their spiritual power.
