SoulCollage® is a creative and intuitive process that involves creating a personal deck of cards, each representing different aspects of your inner self, experiences, emotions, and aspirations.
This technique was developed by Seena B. Frost, and it combines imagery, intuition, and self-exploration.
People that attend remark that the process is deeply transformative yet creative and relaxing and FUN!
1. Introduction: The workshop usually begins with an introduction to the SoulCollage method and its principles.
2. Gathering Materials: Participants are provided with a wide array of magazines, images, scissors, glue sticks, and cardstock. These materials are used to create their SoulCollage cards.
3. Card Creation: Each participant starts by selecting images that resonate with them. These images might represent different aspects of themselves, emotions, dreams, or any theme that feels significant. Participants cut out the images and arrange them on their cardstock to create a collage.
4. Collage Assembly: Participants glue the selected images onto the cardstock to create their SoulCollage cards. The collage can be a mix of different images that evoke feelings and memories.
5. Sharing and Reflection: After creating their cards, participants gather in a group to share their creations. They might take turns discussing the images they chose, the feelings they evoke, and the significance of their cards. This sharing process can be deeply insightful and provide a way to connect with others on a deeper level.
6. Journaling: Participants are often encouraged to journal about their experience of creating the SoulCollage card. This can include writing about the emotions, memories, and thoughts that the images brought up during the creative process.
7. Card Readings: Another aspect of SoulCollage is the practice of "reading" your cards. This involves holding a card, meditating on its images, and allowing your intuition to guide you in understanding its meaning and significance in your life.
8. Creating Multiple Cards: Participants might have the opportunity to create multiple SoulCollage cards during the workshop. Each card can represent a different aspect of themselves or explore various themes.
9. Closing and Reflection: The workshop usually concludes with a closing circle where participants reflect on their experience, share any insights gained, and express gratitude for the creative and introspective journey they've taken.
