I was first introduced to SoulCollage® in 2021 by my artist friends and colleagues who were shocked that I didn’t already have a SoulCollage® practice and I can understand why…. You see, SoulCollage® encompasses everything I do and love within my own creative practice (using intuition and creative expression to explore my inner world) all within a brilliantly organized system! So I've been diving deep into the world of SoulCollage® these days. How about you? Can you feel it...? There is definitely a growing need for practices that foster self-discovery and personal growth these days. And SoulCollage® is just that. SoulCollage® is a unique method developed by Seena Frost that combines the power of images, intuition, and imagination to create a deck of personal cards that serves as a visual representation of one's inner world. Think of all the little fragmented parts and pieces of yourself and each little parts gets to have a voice and identity that is represented in a card. All of those pieces/cards then make up your deck for you to personally consult. How it Starts... The practice of SoulCollage® begins with the simple yet profound act of gathering images that resonate with you. These can be sourced from magazines, photographs, old books, or other visual materials. The next step involves the creative act of assembling these images into a collage on a card or mat board. The result is a personalized deck of cards, each representing a facet of your personality, experiences, or inner landscape. Journey into the Self The magic of SoulCollage® lies in the exploration and reflection that follows the creation of these cards. As you delve into each collage, you embark on a journey into your own psyche. The images, symbols, and emotions captured in the cards become a mirror reflecting your inner self. This process of self-exploration is not only therapeutic but also an opportunity to uncover hidden aspects of yourself. Both the light and the shadow. The Power of Card Readings Once the cards are crafted, SoulCollage® invites you to engage in card readings. This involves drawing cards randomly or asking specific questions and interpreting the responses that emerge. The cards become a tool for tapping into your inner wisdom, providing insights and guidance that may have eluded your conscious awareness. Community and Connection While SoulCollage® can be a deeply personal practice, it is equally powerful when shared in a community. Whether in a workshop or with a group of like-minded individuals, the act of sharing your cards and the stories behind them can deepen your understanding and create connections with others on a similar journey of self-discovery. Benefits of SoulCollage®
To sum it up, SoulCollage® offers a doorway into the rich tapestry of your inner world, providing a space for self-discovery, healing, and personal growth. In a society often focused on external achievements, this practice invites you to turn inward, reconnect with your authentic self, and embark on a journey of profound self-exploration. So, let's go! Gather up your images, unleash your creativity, and let SoulCollage® be your guide on the path to unveiling the hidden treasures within. *Stay tuned for SoulCollage® offerings from Create the Way Arts coming January 2024!
