A proposito di questo titolo
“If you’re looking to get still, turn inward, and learn to trust your voice, this is the book for you.”—Alexandra Elle, New York Times bestselling author of How We Heal
“The seasons and cycles of nature have incredible power to affect everything in our lives—especially our creativity,” says poet Jacqueline Suskin. “The Earth shows us when our creative reserves might wax and wane. When we listen and follow nature’s lead, we tune in to an inexhaustible source of imagination, inspiration, and beauty.” With A Year in Practice, this inspiring teacher shares holistic practices to help creatives of all sorts access the limitless potential that flows with the rhythms of nature.
Set in sync with the progression of the seasons, A Year in Practice is a program of techniques and journaling prompts to guide the creative seeker all year long. Four seasonally themed chapters keep you connected to natural phases of creative contraction and expansion:
• Winter invites restoration so you can come back to your craft with renewed energy
• Spring is a time of balance, focusing on the magic of emergence while embodying discretion
• Summer is the season of togetherness, instilling confidence to bring our creations into the light
• Autumn asks us to turn back toward ourselves as we prepare for another winter of introspection
Used regularly, you will move through creative blocks, deepen your capacity for self-reflection, expand imaginative growth, and find new levels of inspiration and contentment.
“It’s crucial that we spend time dreaming, crafting, and resting in a state of reverie,” says Suskin. Here she offers practical tools and creative customs to help you tune in to the energies of each season—to enrich your creativity through playfulness, emotional expression, explorative whimsy, and ever-deepening levels of imagination.

“If you’re looking to get still, turn inward, and learn to trust your voice, this is the book for you. Suskin guides us through a self-inquiry practice that is deeply resonant and beautiful.”—Alexandra Elle, New York Times bestselling author of How We Heal
“Using the poetry of our lives, A Year in Practice shifts our notions of time and space from linear to cyclical. By reshaping time, we can foster acceptance and meaning by working with the seasonal tides and not against them. This book is a grounding force for any creative practice to flourish, however you define it. A Year in Practice is an agent for connection, for expressing big feelings, for exploring the ‘why’ and tending to your creative self.”—Carissa Potter Carlson, artist and founder of People I’ve Loved
“Jacqueline Suskin’s A Year in Practice invites us to utilize our connection to nature as seasonal beings in devotion to our creative practice with such care, nourishment, and aliveness. Filled with soulful poetry and prose, wise creative wisdom, and deeply rooted practices, this book is a balm and a lovingly held container that allows readers to tune both outward and inward in order to create a bridge between ourselves, nature, and creativity. A Year in Practice weaves the practical and the unseen in ways that illuminate how we can relate to both the tangible actions and the mystery that hold our creative practices. The tender and unique approach Suskin takes is one that I know will ignite and nurture my own creative practice for years to come.”—Lisa Olivera, author of Already Enough
