The Art of Finding Yourself Through Journaling

“Wonder occurs when you decide to live, to endure and assign meaning to your experiences.” Christina Baldwin, Life’s Companion, Journal Writing as a Spiritual Practice.

Summer is still with us - yes - but in my mind and heart I am turning towards fall, preparing classes and defining just what it is I am offering through the Creative Circle class: creative journaling with SoulCollage®.    




Some of the benefits of journal writing have been explored in books, studies and you can certainly google them on-line. Everyone has a slightly different focus or purpose for journaling. Here are some of the things this class incorporates:


·           Learn 7 different journaling techniques  (free writing, poetic writing, affirmations, gratitude lists, soul dialogue, creative doodling/ visual journaling)
·           Delight in discovering your own story, patterns and meaning through journal prompts
·           Learn SoulCollage®,  an excellent right-brain activity: creative, intuitive & fun
·           Use mindfulness, body presence and relaxation exercises including guided visualizations to enhance your journaling and  over-all well-being
·           Get in touch with and develop your intuition through journaling
·           Discover your Inner Feminine: lineage, family stories, inherited myths
·           Make connections with other like-minded, caring women in the Creative Circle


“Journal-keeping is a means of documenting the spontaneous flow of your life and growth. It is a vehicle for experiencing the present more fully and also witnessing past patterns and setting goals for the future. Lucia Capacchione, The Creative Journal, the Art of Finding Yourself
