A Marvelous Look at the Power of Art to Relieve the Frustration and Tension Caused by an Imperfect World,
"I am an ordinary woman living in an extraordinary, imperfect world."
This phrase sets a poignant beginning to a poignant masterpiece full of humor, honesty and reflection. All of us struggle with depression at some time or another, whether it be from losing our job, or financial burdens we are unprepared for, or some other crisis which steps in and takes control of our lives out of our hands. Depression is one of the most sinister diseases in the world, because it is one that we consider to be ordinary. Yes, of course we're going to feel sad. Yes, of course there are days we're going to feel like we're hanging on to control by a very thin thread.
Guess what? There's no of course about it! No one says that you have to feel that way. You can find an outlet for your depression that allows your heart to heal and your mind to clear by transforming your feelings into a tangible expression through art.
Sculpting the Heart takes you on a personal journey through depression and the healing powers of creative expression. Whether your medium is writing, sculpting, painting or music, creative expression can release the tension and frustration that build up inside your mind and release you from the bars of depression back into the freedom of the real world.
What a brilliant book this is. I think it would make a very helpful and caring book to a friend or family member fighting depression.
I love the whole idea of creating art to help heal. What a wonderful idea. This book was very interesting, well written, great quotes that made one ponder, and looking at the art pictures made it a five star book.
This book will help many people live happier lives. I believe it is very inspirational, in that, others will create their own art. Thank you to the author Joyce White.

I hope all my books offered will help you live a happier life.
By the time I was forty, chronic depression had left me without a job, friends or family for emotional support. Depression had left me too ill to work, so I took a few classes in college. I was in my forties. My parents died. I was lost. Clay opened up new avenues of joy and poetry gave me a way to turn my depression into inspirational writing and art to help myself as well as others. I defined myself as diseased. Working in the Arts, I learned a lot about myself. I define myself now as a surviver. With self-awareness, comes compassion and self-love and less depression and anxiety. I, at last, had purpose in my life. The last ten years I've been on a journey out of my own isolation and back into the world again. I've been accumulating wonderful webs for our growth and entertainment. Come visit me and my new friends and watch yourself turn from sad to glad. Also check out Click here and Click here.

Don't you just love the title, Sculpting the Heart? It is an indication that a poet resides within. Yes. And a sculptor. And a painter. But though those things are very important for the subject of this book, so is this one: Author Joyce White is also a sage.
That this book is about Surviving Depression with Art Therapy as the subtitle suggests is really secondary to the inspiration it affords. Liberally sprinkled with four-color images of artwork and photography that will make you smile, this book is about being happy.
Though even the casual reader may notice that the formatting, design and editing are not perfect, I beg anyone who is suffering from depression (and others seeking happiness) to not let that dissuade them from absorbing—and appreciating—the heart within. The world is not black and white only. Those who miss the beauty because they are caught up in being judgmental might very well miss much joy in life. This colorful, bright, smart and helpful book would be one of them. Listen to the anecdotes, the voice (the song!) of the author and heal thyself.
