SoulCollage®
is a simple, intuitive therapeutic expressive arts process that helps individuals develop creativity and intuition, encourages self-discovery and provides personal guidance.
SoulCollage® helps you listen to your Soul, accepts you where you are in life and offers profound, meaningful ways to enhance your Creative Journey of enlightenment and transformation
SoulCollage® uses images instead of words to help us develop awareness and gain insight into our interior lives. SoulCollage® uses the time-tested tools of knowledge, experience, reflection, and intuition.
It brings unexpected and meaningful insights similar to walking a labyrinth.
SoulCollage® helps one see one's inner life in fresh ways. We all project
personal meaning onto everything we see. If we have trouble expressing our feelings, we can mirror our emotions through spontaneous collage art techniques.
SoulCollage® allows us to understand our motivations and recognise what brings us joy and peace and what drains us. It is contemplative seeing, a beautiful gift that allows one to rest deeply as one learns who one is.
SoulCollage® does not require artistic skills. It's a powerful tool for exploring your inner world, providing glimpses of significant themes and illuminating 'aha moments of sacredness, surprise and synchronicity.
Creating your own SoulCollage® cards can help you communicate what's sometimes challenging to put into words.
