From Rev. Jac Blackman:
High Desert Center for Spiritual Living-Albuquerque, NM:
“Creative Stress has been my ‘book of the month’ and I have been speaking on it the full month of March.
The book is totally timely!
I have been telling my people for the last year to get ready for enormous changes and be malleable and swim with the current instead of against it.
I shared that my feeling about Egypt was that it was not a revolution – it was an evolution – and part of the evolution that is taking place – with the chaos of the old order collapsing and the new order coming into being.”

What you will learn
- While negative stress can spin between suppression and explosion, creative stress engages directly and articulates boldly.
- While negative stress swings between passivity and volatility, creative stress modulates the tension and channels energy into fruitful action
- While negative stress victimizes others or perpetuates a state of victimhood, creative stress takes responsibility, avoids scapegoating and seeks to heal and to restore strength.
- While negative stress is punitive and demands vindication, creative stress seeks to resolve conflict, and cultivate qualities of forgiveness and compassion.
- While negative stress feeds off inadequacy, or an inflated sense of worth, creative stress transcends the ego’s false reality and dives into soul power.
