Workshop Description

Join this introductory workshop combining FOAT® and SoulCollage® - two creative and insightful approaches to inner exploration. In this workshop, you will be introduced to FOAT® as a gentle and curious way to explore your inner experience and access the felt sense. Then you will learn the fun and powerful artistic process of SoulCollage® that uses images as a means of expressing your inner wisdom. Blending FOAT® with SoulCollage® fosters a profound experience, allowing our body to guide us to deeper self-knowledge. To give you a taste of this powerful medium, we will briefly review the basics of FOAT® and SoulCollage®, create a card or two, and share in pairs for deeper insight and self-discovery. This group is open to people who are new to FOAT® as well as those with previous FOAT® experience.
