In this provocative collection of essays, an interdisciplinary group of eminent thinkers and writers offer their thoughts on how embracing creativity - tapping into the originality of everyday life - can lead to improved physical and mental health, to new ways of thinking, of experiencing the world and ourselves. They show how creativity can refine our views of human nature at an individual and societal level and, ultimately, change our paradigms for survival - and for flourishing - in a world fraught with urgent challenges.

Kirin Narayan’s imagination was captured the very first time that, as a girl visiting the Himalayas, she heard Kangra women join their voices together in song. Returning as an anthropologist, she became fascinated by how they spoke of singing as a form of enrichment, bringing feelings of accomplishment, companionship, happiness, and even good health—all benefits of the “everyday creativity” she explores in this book. Part ethnography, part musical discovery, part poetry, part memoir, and part unforgettable portraits of creative individuals, this unique work brings this remote region in North India alive in sight and sound while celebrating the incredible powers of music in our lives. With rare and captivating eloquence, Narayan portrays Kangra songs about difficulties on the lives of goddesses and female saints as a path to well-being. Like the intricate geometries of mandalu patterns drawn in courtyards or the subtle balance of flavors in a meal, well-crafted songs offer a variety of deeply meaningful benefits: as a way of making something of value, as a means of establishing a community of shared pleasure and skill, as a path through hardships and limitations, and as an arena of renewed possibility. Everyday Creativity makes big the small world of Kangra song and opens up new ways of thinking about what creativity is to us and why we are so compelled to engage it.

FIRST OF A SERIES OF FOUR EVERYDAY CREATIVITY (TM) BOOKS, this 1994 "lost book," by a prizewinning 21st century expert, was recently discovered. It introduces the vital concept of EVERYDAY CREATIVITY, "our originality of everyday life," often lost to those who think creativity is only about arts or sciences, or a few famous people. This is our human birthright-creativity as a process and way of life whether managing an office, organizing a fundraiser, parenting, teaching, gardening, fixing the car-or creating that painting. It is less what we do than how we do it. With creativity as a process WE TOO ARE THE CREATION; we come alive, find richness, inspiration, presence, joy, new realms of health-physical and psychological-and in the best cases, also intimacy, love, caring, a greater connection, and new views of world and self. Here too is help for those with anxiety, depression, a range of conflicts, parents wanting the best for their kids, and each of us seeking happiness and meaning in life.
