The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gifts. --Albert Einstein
SoulCollage™ is an intuitive art process invented by therapist and artist, Seena Frost. Her book, SoulCollage, outlines the development and uses of the SoulCollage™ process. While it is certainly possible to make cards on your own and to enjoy and benefit from the process, SoulCollage was conceived as and works wonderfully as a group experience. It is a special opportunity to share introspection and insights with others through the medium of art making.
SoulCollage™ Workshops and Groups SoulStudio meets monthly and is an ongoing way to make cards with others. SoulStudio includes a group reading of selected writings, followed by a brief meditation or guided visualization. The group then turns to images and card making for most of the session. Card making is followed by a "gallery walk" as everyone puts out newly made cards for others to see. The session finishes with a "debriefing" of the cards by exploring their meanings through a variety of writing exercises and optional sharing with the group. There are two sessions of SoulStudio each month--one on the first Friday of each month from 6:30-9:30 pm and another on the following Saturday morning from 9am-noon. SoulStudio groups meet at Sara’s home studio and are limited to ten participants. Seasonal themes and individual suits are emphasized. See schedule page for dates.
SoulCircle meets monthly for card reading and writing from cards. Many of us have beautiful decks of SoulCollage cards and although we treasure them, we find that after a while, we rarely look at them. A small group, SoulCircle, meets with the aim of getting to know our cards by consulting them through readings and exploring their meaning by writing. SoulCircle members learn in the context of a sharing group. This group makes a minimum three month commitment to working together. Group size is limited to five. The current SoulCircle group is full. Other SoulCircle groups will be formed as needed. Contact Sara for more information sara@abovethedoor.com You may also work with Sara to create your own theme. All materials are provided. To discuss or schedule a special SoulCollage session for your group, contact sara@abovethedoor.com SoulCollage™ and Creativity Coaching Combining SoulCollage™ with creativity coaching invites your right brain imagination and intuition to work powerfully with your left brain logic. Coaching clients use their cards for self discovery, for contemplative writing, for guidance and as reminders of the inner wisdom they already possess. When SoulCollage™ is combined with coaching, the power of images reinforces the learning that takes place through coaching. For more information see the Creativity Coaching page.
