The Narrative Method: A Writing Practice for Not Hating Yourself and Discovering Who You Really Are

Find the freedom of knowing the true and authentic version of you. When you untangle the false beliefs and stories you’ve been fed, you can build a new foundation of self-acceptance.

Are you secretly convinced that people would be shocked to find out how neurotic you are? Many of us have crafted our identities around a tentpole of shame, embarrassment, fear, and anxiety. What if a simple journaling practice could help you unwind that story, untangle old beliefs, and build a more profound relationship with yourself?

Enter The Narrative Method—a 13-week writing journey of self-discovery fueled by the power of your own imagination. Created by Shari Foos, an artist and activist turned licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, The Narrative Method guides you through a series of thoughtful daily prompts and creative exercises to explore your inner world. This practice is designed to help you access your imagination to express your creativity, upgrade your thinking, stop hating yourself, and discover who you really are.

Journal through the 13 concepts of The Narrative Method:

• Unravelling The Cult of Culture (discerning and rejecting society’s pressures) • Who You Are (defining your sense of self) • Creative Force (releasing your inner fire) • Wonderland (enacting a creative dreaming process) • Rocket Ship (embracing incremental change) • Kaleidoscoping (expanding your point of view) • Lantern in the Cave (shining a light on self-discovery) • Radical Gratitude (choosing appreciation) • Upgrading (replacing false beliefs with new information) • Sounds & Signals (leveling up your communication) • Narrative A.W.E. (living with awareness, wonder, and empathy) • Flowers & Tears (forgiving and apologizing without excuses or expectations) • Relational Mindfulness (connecting with others authentically)

So come on in, and let the story change! This book is not about becoming a better writer, although you may. It's about using writing as a vehicle for upgrading your relationship with yourself and everyone else in the process. Discover the power of articulating your own experience as you shed the stories that culture has fed you and dive deeper into the true and authentic version of you.

Perfect for fans of The Shadow Work Journal or The Book of Alchemy.
