Artist Self Care Day is a time to set aside to practice self love and reflection in real time with other artists. This time will be a very unique soundscape building experience. Mindfulness Coach & Singer/Songwriter Katy Oberle, MS, IMFT will lead us in a SoulCollage® activity designed to support mindfulness, self-compassion, and self-expression.
Artists give constantly. They pour themselves into their work, their performances, their craft — often at great personal cost. This workshop invites you to turn that same creative attention inward. SoulCollage® is a therapeutic, intuitive collage-making practice that uses imagery to help us access parts of ourselves that don't always have words—the inner landscape from which all creative work ultimately flows. This workshop weaves SoulCollage® together with mindfulness, self-inquiry, and reflection specifically tailored to the creative life. Participants will leave with one or more personal cards, a new self-care tool they can return to again and again, and a deeper relationship with the inner source of their art. No artistic experience with collage is required. Just show up!
LEARNING INTENTIONS: By the end of this workshop, participants will have:
-Made at least one personal SoulCollage® card
-Experienced SoulCollage® as a mindfulness and self-care practice
-Explored the connection between inner life and creative process
-Gained a portable, repeatable practice they can use on their own
