Philosophy:

Every single one of us is infused with creativity. Divine Sparks are embedded in everyone and everything. As children we could see the splendor of being alive, we were aware of things we now dismiss, believing in our dreams and accessing our imaginations was not something we made time for, it was simply a way of being. It is my whole-hearted belief that: awareness-paying attention to the habits that inhibit our light from shining. clear vision-seeing where in our lives we are on the right path and celebrating this with gratitude. sacred listening-trusting our own intuition …are all steps that allow us to live in wholeness: body, mind, heart and soul. As your coach I will support you as you reveal your sacred spark and realize your creative dreams….breath by breath…moment by moment…step by step.

SoulCollage® Self-Discovery Playshops for Women’s Groups

 

This practice encourages sacred listening; at the core of SoulCollage® is the belief that everyone is in an expression of the Divine; therefore the wisdom of each member is a gift that will inform the spiritual growth of the whole group. As women, we know that joining together in an intimate circle enriches not only those present, but everyone in our lives we connect with beyond “the circle” as well.

 

Gathering Sparks Creativity Quest (AKA: Muse Group) Are you feeling frustrated and overwhelmed because you just have too many good ideas and don’t know where to begin...Or are you more likely to get a great start on a creative project and suddenly hit a wall that drains all of the energy out of you? Does a desire for perfection keep you from playing joyfully in your chosen artistic modality? Do you ever wonder why this happens to you and how you might change the patterns you seem to be stuck in? A Gathering Sparks Creativity Quest will provide the information, guidance and essential tools you need to understand the common pitfalls of the creative process by applying the principles of Kaizen-Muse Creativity Coaching. You will learn how to effectively get back in the flow though interactive discussions as well as individual and group exercises. A three-hour introductory workshop will whet your creative appetite and ignite your imagination. A full ten-week quest will offer you a joyful, supportive circle of fellow sojourners and the structure that all free-spirited, rebellious creative folks need.
