Art Is a Spiritual Path
by Pat B. AllenArt is a spiritual path--not a religion, but a practice that helps us knit together the ideals and convictions that guide our lives. Creating art can be prayer, ritual, and remembrance of the Divine. And the sharing of this creativity with others in small groups can serve as sanctuary, asylum, ashram, therapy group, think tank, and village square. Pat Allen has developed a reliable guide for walking the path of art through a series of simple practices that combine drawing, painting, and sculpture with journal writing. Designed for readers at any level of artistic experience, the book shows how to: * awaken the creative force and connect with the divine source of creativity * access inner wisdom and intuition about life issues, including both personal and community concerns * find a path to meaning that includes honoring, celebrating, and giving thanks * explore the images and symbols of traditions such as Catholicism, Judaism, shamanism, and Goddess worship * join in spiritual community with others who are following the path of art * discover that artmaking can help us live our ideals and be of service in the world Detailed examples from the author's own practice of art, plus the stories and images of several other people, are presented to illustrate how art becomes a spiritual path in action. At the author's virtual studio, www.patballen.com, readers can post their images and writings, communicate with the author, and subscribe to an electronic newsletter. The site also contains an archive of the images in this book in full color.
Art Is a Way of Knowing: A Guide to Self-Knowledge and Spiritual Fulfillment through Creativity

This book offers encouragement for everyone to explore art making in this spirit of self-discovery--plus practical instructions on material, methods, and activities such as ways to: * Discover a personal myth or story * Recognize patterns and themes in one's life * Identify and release painful memories * Combine journaling and image making * Practice the ancient skill of active imagination * Connect with others through sharing one's art works Interwoven with this guidance is the intimate story of the author's own journey as a student, art therapist, teacher, wife, mother, and artist--and, most of all, as a woman who discovered a profound and healing connection with her soul through making art." Pat B. Allen Ph.D., ATR, is an artist and a registered art therapist who teaches at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.

I found her to be an encouraging and competent guide."--American Journal of Art Therapy "Finally, a self-help book that is true to the passionate and turbulent movements of the soul in the process of creation."--Shaun McNiff, Ph.D., author of Art as Medicine

Controla tu mente: Libérate de los pensamientos tóxicos que te limitan
by Jennie AllenEn la lista de los MÁS VENDIDOS de NEW YORK TIMES y USA TODAY La visionaria detrás de IF: Gathering con un millón de personas, desafía a las mujeres cristianas a transformar su perspectiva y sus vidas al interrumpir sus pensamientos en espiral y darse cuenta de su poder dado por Dios para pensar de manera diferente. La oradora y profesora de la Biblia Jennie Allen escucha todo el tiempo a mujeres que se sienten atrapadas en patrones de frustración y derrota. En su búsqueda de una solución, ha aprendido que la mayor batalla espiritual de nuestra generación se está llevando a cabo entre nuestros oídos. Cómo pensamos da forma a cómo vivimos. Por lo tanto, es crucial que aprendamos cómo detener nuestros pensamientos giratorios y rechazar ser víctimas de patrones de pensamiento tóxicos como la victimización, la ansiedad y la distracción. En este libro, Jennie se basa en la verdad bíblica y los descubrimientos recientes en neurociencia para mostrar exactamente cómo podemos luchar contra los enemigos de la mente con la verdad de quién es Dios y quién nos llama a ser. ¿Tus pensamientos te mantienen cautiva? Nunca voy a ser lo suficientemente bueno. Otras personas tienen mejores vidas que yo. Dios realmente no podría amarme. Jennie Allen sabe lo que es girar en una espiral de pensamientos destructivos, pero también sabe que no tenemos que quedarnos atrapadas en patrones de pensamiento tóxicos. Como descubrió en su propia vida, Dios creó una forma para que podamos escapar de esa espiral descendente. La libertad llega cuando nos negamos a ser víctimas de nuestros pensamientos y nos damos cuenta de que ya hemos sido equipados con el poder de Dios para luchar y ganar la guerra para nuestras mentes. En Controla tu mente, Jennie nos inspira y nos equipa para transformar nuestras emociones, nuestra perspectiva e incluso nuestras circunstancias al tomar el control de nuestros pensamientos. Nuestro enemigo está decidido a meterse en nuestras cabezas para hacernos sentir impotentes, abrumadas e incapaces de hacer una diferencia para el reino de Dios. Pero cuando sometemos nuestras mentes a Cristo, las promesas y la bondad de Dios inundan nuestras vidas de manera notable. Comienza en tu mente. Y a partir de ahí, las posibilidades son infinitas.
