SoulCollage® and the Art of Self-Care
Many people are feeling overwhelmed with all of the uncertainty in the world, and with uncertainty comes stress. One of my favorite practices to de-stress and tap into my creativity is SoulCollage®.
What is SoulCollage®? It is an intuitive collage process created by Seena Frost that is easy for anyone to do (you don’t need any previous experience or a lot of art supplies). In the video below, I share SoulCollage® Card examples, information about this fun and intuitive collage making exercise, and the benefits of making SoulCollage® cards. SoulCollage® is also an inexpensive and simple creative self-care practice you can do at home.
MINDFUL ART JOURNALING PROMPTS FOR SOULCOLLAGE®:
Begin by setting an intention for your Self-Care card-making session (see below). I like to collaborate with chance by choosing images I feel drawn to without questioning why (or having a set idea or finished collage in mind). I enjoy trusting the process and then speaking or writing from the cards once they're complete.
My Self-Care vision or my self-care intentions for the New Year (or for X amount of time), etc
Self-Care Cards and SoulCollage® Journaling Prompts:
"I am one who..." and/or "The message I have for you is..."
Shadow questions may also include:
"Why am I not practicing self-care?" or "What's holding me back from putting my self-care needs first?"
I love that you can play with intuitive collage and mindful art journaling any time (whether you’re at home in your art studio, or in your office, etc). In my next post, I’ll be sharing a simple Life Balance Wheel that will help you “check in” with how you’re feeling regarding your self-care.
