Art as a Healing Practice provides a gentle yet profound opportunity for self-exploration. The Professional Development series offers a unique training experience. Whether you're looking for a way to expand your knowledge and be inspired in this field, or desire to take time for personal, healing work,
now is the time to invest in yourself.
Each of these series offers you a recorded version in your learning library that you have unlimited access to and can go back to anytime. Certificates of Completion, for live attendance, can also be submitted for CEUs.
The Art as a Healing Practice created by Kathleen Horne has always been a favorite. I really enjoy the different prompts and creative applications used to lead me on a new journey of self discovery about an aspect of self. Buried wisdoms and affirmations reveal themselves in color, line and theme as Kathleen gently guides and holds the space to witness and be witnessed in group. Each workshop is an
important stand alone, to later be integrated and harvested again in an exciting final cumulative piece. Weaving together clarity, insights and intentions to inform my present and ongoing life course. So many possibilities for healing, transformation and growth. -Julia A.

SoulCollage® Council Suit:
Mother Archetype
with Diane Lampitt M.Ed.
May 2nd 6pm-9pm EDT
This workshop is for those who have taken an Introduction to SoulCollage® workshop. It is an invitation to take a deep dive into the process to learn about and explore the Council suit. Cards in the Council Suit represent different archetypal energies,
energies that are universal patterns or themes. Some of these Larger Story archetypes enter and act in one’s personal and local story. They are guides and challengers, as in the other suits, but on a larger scale. Your Council cards may help you identify your unique and personal purpose. We will place a focus on the various archetypes representing Mother energy.

life. More
