Trauma

When trauma was involved in a relationship or chapter of life, we may struggle alone because our authentic range of feelings don't have a place to be honestly expressed and honored. 

Systemic Injustice 

Our grief, along with anger and despair, engulfs us when loss is a result of systemic injustice. And, any kind of loss is compounded by the impact of marginalization & devaluation.

Positive Transitions 

Some transitions in life are freeing and celebratory, and yet even freeing transitions can have elements of loss. When we make space for grief even in happiness, we become able to enter more wholeheartedly into our new lives.  

Ritual 

Carl Jung spoke of ritual as the bridge between the the chapter of life that is closing, and the new chapter we are entering. 

Using the medium of collage, I’ll walk you gently through listening to what your soul needs to express in its grief. We’ll turn this into a powerful practice to ground and support you through loss. 

Since grief is a process, you'll be able to come back to this ritual on your own as many times as feels right to you.  

If the loss you are grieving is a loved one (human or animal), there will be support for continuing your relationship with them as an ancestor who remains, in some ways, more intimately connected in death than in life.

*Collages using images created by others cannot be sold, traded, or bartered. We thank all the wonderful photographers & artists whose images inspired us to recreate and discover our inner & outer worlds.

Participation in this workshop does not require adopting a new belief system. It won't matter whether you experience the medicine of the soul as spiritual or metaphorical.

The practice you will be introduced to is not a spiritual bypass, a way of dissociating from the physical realities of exploitation, inequity, brutality, and despoliation.

In fact, the soul has a primary concern for whomever and whatever is marginalized, rejected, objectified, devalued, or orphaned.

No, this course is not psychotherapy, and signing up for it does not form a therapeutic relationship with Joy.

This video course comes with a full written and downloadable transcript, which I've edited for clarity. However, the practice of SoulCollage, which is the centerpiece of this workshop, is a visual art practice.
