Project Life consists of six separate sections. Each section describes certain
mental or inner states (you can call them whatever you like, it is just a
matter of terminology).
- the state in which a person fully expresses themselves
and gives their life over to the creative process.
In Western cultures this state is traditionally seen as
opposed to Life. Here we view death not as the ultimate end of life
but as one of the most important events in a person’s life. One day
a state people call Life, simply transforms into a state people call
Death.
Mass media refers to this state as the plague of the
21st century. Comparing depression to the plague (the most dreadful and
virulent medieval disease) is not a figure of speech. At the moment you
are reading these words millions of people around the world are
suffering from depression. The section called "Overcoming Depression"
discusses concrete methods of fighting depression.
Stress is a relatively new term, it only came into use
in 1936. The section entitled "Overcoming Stress" is dedicated to this
state, you can find some stress reduction techniques there.
The state in which a person fully expresses themselves
and gives their life over to the creative process.
