With Japanese and Buddhist roots dating back hundreds of years, wabi-sabi is a world view that centers on the acceptance of the changeability and imperfections of life, of self, and of the world around us. Finding beauty in that imperfection and changeability has been the key to thoughtfulness, peace, and tranquility for many since its use has become more widespread.

Bad Narrator

Awkward pauses, monotone in weird ways, and not at all a soothing voice I want to hear so close to my ears.

The Artist’s Way is the seminal book on the subject of creativity. An international best seller, millions of fans have found it to be an invaluable guide to living the artist’s life. Still as vital today - or perhaps even more so - than it was when it was first published one decade ago, it is a powerfully provocative and inspiring work. In a new introduction to the book, Julia Cameron reflects upon the impact of The Artist’s Way and describes the work she has done during the last decade and the new insights into the creative process that she has gained.

Says the word God way too much
Reviewed: 10-08-23
This book talks about how you don’t need to believe in god, but then turns around and outlines the key steps with some of them saying stating needing to trust in god. It was quite annoying. The word god was mentioned too much, especially in the introduction and chapter afterwards. It would have made it much easier to connect to if the book had more inclusive terms. It is difficult to listen to an audiobook playing and suddenly have to constantly think about the concept that was just stated and put it into Buddhist or more general terms. And because the focus is on that, it makes it more difficult to internalize or memorize the real gold nugget of information.
Also, the audiobook voice actor or narrator is really great!

With all the music production advice out there, it can be very easy to get overwhelmed. You may get a vague idea of the general topic, but you're more likely to be confused, and you definitely won't have any workable knowledge. Well, the good news is this book changes that. Designed to take the complex world of music production, and explain it in simple terms. If you are a home-based musician then this is a must have for making your music sound professional. For the pros and semi-pros out there, this is a great book for understanding what good music production entails.

Extreme Lack of Diversity in Examples
Reviewed: 08-20-20
Almost all examples given are of Sis White Males. In order to have comprehensive knowledge about the subject in which you are studying, equal representation within examples is a must. The author did not consider their audience at all.
