Every creature of the world is a book or picture, and also a mirror for ourselves.—c.1200

 

Animals bring out the best in us, by offering opportunities to show compassion and unconditional love and reminding us of the truths that exist at our core. Their therapeutic presence contributes to our well-being and can be empowering when we take a cue from how they navigate the world—through peaceful coexistence, a reliance on intuition and instinct, and trust. They live fully in the present, neither ruminating over the past nor projecting into the future. And they bring joy!

 

In this two-hour workshop, we’ll celebrate the animals in our lives through a variety of interactive activities, combining images with fun and thought-provoking journaling exercises. We’ll read illuminating poetry and quotes and enjoy a lovely guided meditation. We’ll explore the SoulCollage® Companion Suit, developed by founder Seena Frost to honor animals who connect us to the wisdom and energy of nature and the earth. And we’ll make a new SoulCollage® card featuring the animal of our choice, then allow it to offer unique advice through an imaginative prompt.

 

The presence of beloved pets on your zoom screen, roaming in and around your space, is more than welcome! Expect smiles!

 

Supplies to have on hand:

• Numerous images of creatures of all sorts—those that creep, crawl, fly, trot, run, swim, slither, scamper, etc., including photos of your own pets if desired

• A wide variety of background images (from nature, interiors, patterns) that resonate

• A 5x8 card, glue, and scissors

• A journal, pen, or your favorite writing instruments

 

Hope to see you there! Both new and experienced SoulCollagers welcome!
