What is creative genius, where does it come from, and how can we unleash it in ourselves? These are the questions explored in the ground-breaking new book, Higher Self Expression by Jeff Carreira. We all know that there are some people who demonstrate a capacity for extraordinary creative genius that sets them apart. They articulate things that have never been known before and become the transformative visionaries of history. We often assume that they must have been born with a rare talent for novelty. In this book, you will discover that genius is not only a talent that you are born with, it is a human capacity that can be trained and cultivated by anyone. In these pages, you will learn how to nurture your own creative brilliance by examining the unusual lives of luminaries ranging from: Gertrude Stein, Ralph Waldo Emerson and William James, to Anaïs Nin, Philip K. Dick and Captain Marvel. You will compare the genius of Eastern mysticism with the brilliance of Christianity and Islam. You will explore great works of poetry, literature, science fiction, comic books and even extreme sports. There is no realm of human endeavor that can not produce genius. What you learn from this brief history of genius becomes truly valuable as you discover how it can be applied to unleash your own creative potential. You will learn how to develop your own capacity for genius by discovering a mysterious inner state of mind that is intimately connected to life and simultaneously free of limitations and boundaries. You will see how some of the world's most creative individuals have accessed this profound depth of imagination to fuel their artistic endeavors. Genius is always driven by intuitions that arise out of an open-minded sensitivity that can be learned, practiced and mastered. Jeff Carreira, the bestselling author of fourteen previous titles, takes you on a journey at the border between spirituality and creativity. You will see how art is ultimately a spiritual endeavor, and spiritual work is ultimately the artistry of living. By sharing his own inner realizations and the intimate details of his creative process, Carreira gives you the necessary insights that unlock your own creative potential and reveal the gift you were born to give to the world.
