In this workshop, we'll be building upon the process of SoulCollage® as described in Seena B. Frost's published works about
SoulCollage®. SoulCollage® is a registered trademark of SoulCollage, Inc. - The SoulCollage® process is described in Seena B.
Frost's book, SoulCollage®. More information about SoulCollage® can be found at www.soulcollage.com."
SoulCollage® cards are not to be sold, traded, or bartered; they are to be reproduced only for the personal use of the maker of the
card. SoulCollage® cards may be shared as examples to illustrate the SoulCollage® process, but it is a principle of SoulCollage® that
SoulCollage® cards are not for sale, trade, or barter.
Soul Space Cards: A Primer
What are Soul Space Cards? Soul Space Cards are a creative form of expression to help you explore your inner self in a fun, dynamic, and safe environment. Using the process of
SoulCollage® as described in Seena B. Frost's published works about SoulCollage®, Soul Space Cards are an uplifting way to express yourself and
explore areas of your personality, life, fears, hopes, and dreams. By creating a montage of images on a card, you're able to fully explore your inner self.
If you enjoy the Foundation Workshop and want to continue exploring Soul Space Cards, you'll eventually create your own deck of collaged cards
with each card revealing various expressions of who you are.
What's the purpose of Soul Space Cards? For fun! Yet not only are Soul Space Cards fun, they're a fabulous way tap into your personal inner wisdom and intuition. The Foundational Workshop
gets you started in the card making process; from there, you can branch out into a variety of different workshops and card-making themes. Each card
you create has its own unique character representing one part of yourself; the deck as a whole represents your entire self. When you pull a series of
cards for an intuitive self-reading, your various aspects and personality traits help provide you with insight and inner guidance.
What's different about Soul Space Cards versus a regular vision board? A "vision board" is a poster-sized creation that often contains a more generalized variety of life themes rather than a focus of just one personality
aspect. These boards are fun to create, but once they've been made they're so large that they usually end up stuffed in a closet somewhere, out of sight.
With Soul Space Cards, you'll focus on one area of yourself, one card at a time. Examples of popular themes include the Inner Child, the Mother, the
Wise One, or the Fool; other areas of exploration include how you feel about a certain situation in your life.
Once you have a few cards made (or an entire deck), you're then able to use them to get in touch with your inner guidance. This helps you find
direction in your life, come to terms with unresolved situation or emotions, or simply to spark joy and creativity.
Is this a form of therapy? Creating Soul Space Cards is definitely a therapeutic and empowering process, but I'm not a licensed therapist and therefore, these workshops aren't
considered therapy workshops per se. Any therapeutic benefits you receive from attendinga workshop is purely on a personal, individual, and unique
level based on your own self only.
What materials are needed to make the cards? The materials are very simple and inexpensive (and included in the workshop fees): magazine images or photos of your choice, glue (stick glue and
rubber cement), scissors (I recommend various sizes so you're able to easily cut intricate areas as well as large areas), mat board cards or watercolor
cards.
