SoulCollage® and Journaling Workshop
Feb
13

SoulCollage® and Journaling Workshop

Join us for an afternoon of visual contemplation and sacred writing in celebration of the returning light.

This two-hour ONLINE journal therapy retreat is an invitation to connect to self and source as we incorporate imagery, colour, and metaphor to enrich our writing time. Through the visual language of the SoulCollage® Process, facilitated by our guest Lenore Walker, (@4the_art_of_living and Souling® Coach), you'll discover more about your inherent and rich personal visual language. SoulCollage® is a unique collage-making experience that uses pre-printed open stock and/or magazine images (provided) and a guided practice that allows you to "discover your wisdom and change your world".

It is an accessible and easy process of visual journaling to integrate with your Sacred Pen journaling practice. This month we focus on the hopeful power of the returning light, and the preparation of internal soil for what we’d like to sow in the springtime. We'll take some time to settle in with this gentle process. No previous art-making experience is required! You'll select a few images and then enter into the sacred art of turning to wonder, using only the images at first, assembling them as you wish, followed by a simple writing prompt.

Then we'll evolve our writing more fully through the Sacred Pen journaling prompts as a personal gathering practice.

For details and to register for this event, please contact us here. Registration is $65.

This two-and-a-half-hour journal therapy retreat is an invitation to connect to self and source with guided writing prompts and meditation.

After the magic of our November session, we’ll once again incorporate imagery, colour, and metaphor to enrich our writing time.

We invite you to come with Winter Sister as she reveals the shape of things through the soft, white tracing of grace crystals as we journey inward toward the heart-hearth. The energy of our time includes generous travel with the Oak Moon that strengthens, heals and grounds us in making home a sacred space and our settling in there a rest in lovingkindness.
