Sark books

[mattieal]

I know this is not particulary a book, but I am curious if you have used Sark books. I am into journaling a lot, and my t opened up a suggestion to draw. I am not artistic and my mind is a blank when it comes to trying. I have looked at the Sark books and they look fun, motivating.
If you have liked them is there one better than another?
Is there another book that is like a journaling, artistic not particulary eating disordered related.
I am trying to think outside the box, even if all I can draw are stick figures.

I anxiously await a response so I can order on amazon soon.

Thanks,
Annie

P.S. I like the books mentioned and I love this new board topic.

No help but I was wondering the same thing. Infact I was getting to ready to start a topic about the SARK books when I saw this one :supergrin

Curious to here what everyone has to say about them

Sark has a "Play Journal" that's a lot of fun!!! Go to the book store and just look through it....it incorporates imagination, drawing, and writing.

[EdNoMore]

Yup, I too second the "Play Journal". It has lots of ideas, and gets your creativity going. The other must-have from the Sark Collection is "Living Juicy". It is a smaller, thick book, that gives you neat things to do everyday, and throughout, has these permission slips you can write out to yourself, because so often, as adults, we don't think we should do things that are good for our playful, inner spirit/child, and Sark gives you permission. I have other books by her, and I recommend all of them. I hope I helped:hairy

I ordered the creative companion and the playbook. Got them yesterday. I am in love! So not the typical self help book. Very fun and very inspiring.

I just ordered succulent wild woman today. Just a hint but some of the older ones go really cheap on amazon marketplace and half.com!

Sark books are fantastic. I have Wild Succelent woman, Eating Mangos Naked, and The Bodacious Book of Succulence. I think her books are fantastic. Many times during my ED, I find myself 'stuck', or going over the same thoughts over and over again. Going through any page of her books will inspire you, will challenge you, and will remind you it's OK to be YOU & it's OK to have FUN!!!

[Rayneonthemoon]

Yes, I love the playbook, I actually had it many years ago - so what I would do with it today, versus when I did it several years back, is way different.. Definatly one I want to get again :yay

Have fun !!!

i'd just like to add... i love sark books!

[angelgirl]

I have Inspiration Sandwich, Transformation Soup, , and Succulent Wild Woman and I totally love them all. I want the Journal really bad and I'm hoping that I get it for my birthday Wednesday. I love all the colors she uses and the fact that each book has a bunch of small sections which are great for my limited attention span.

:love

I have many of sark's books. One really good daily motivational one is called "Living Juicy".

I ordered the journal and was loving it. Now I am find it intimidating I am on the page of things I have done that have amazed me.

It's silly but I can't draw what others ways can I express through art in her books. I know this is not meant to put pressure on me, but it does.

I have never seen these beore, but I am excited. I am trying to allow myself to order Transformation Soup and the Creative Companion.
