Virtual SoulCollage® Retreat-
Exploring Your Ancestry

Saturday June 8, 2019

Please join us for another AMAZING KaleidoSoul
SoulCollage® Virtual Community Retreat Day!

For four hours we’ll gather together via an
easy-to-click-and-access Zoom VIDEO conference link
where we can actually see each other.
How fun will that be?!?!

(You can also call in via phone while looking at the screen).

 

 

What’s This Virtual Retreat All About?

Even if you know nothing about them, your ancestors are a tremendous resource for you, and they are just waiting for you to ask them for guidance and information about who and where you come from.  Through Audrey’s work as an art therapist and SoulCollage® Facilitator/Trainer, she has been surprised and delighted to find that our ancestors love to speak to us through creative processes.

In this workshop experience, we will play with ways to get in touch with those who came before us.  We will be tapping into this great well of wisdom and experience through processes that use your creative imagination.

We will travel to the ancestral realm using guided imagery, SoulCollage®, and intuitive writing.

You will learn about the four realms of ancestral memory and explore your heritage through these portals

Audrey Chowdhury will lead the first 90 minutes of our time together with an Opening Circle to gather us into “retreat mode.”  During this time there will also be teaching and sharing on our experiences working with our ancestors, using, of course, the process of SoulCollage®.  We will explore the four realms of ancestral memory which are described in Audrey’s book, Ancestral Impressions:  Exploring Your Ancestry through Creativity, Imagery, and Intuition.

This session will also include optional group discussion and lots of visual examples.

Then we’ll break so everyone can be on their own for one hour to make cards (and believe me, by then you’ll be really inspired to make some cards!).  We’ll turn the recording off but we will all remain on the video link as much as possible, so that we can all stay connected.

We’ll gather together again for the last 90 minutes for some insight-full journaling, lots of sharing of our cards, and a closing circle to send us back out of the retreat and into our lives, with a clear plan in mind for staying connected with the ancestors who wish to guide us and bless us on our journeys.

Because we’ll be connected by video, you can hold a new (or old!) card up to the camera and everyone will be able to see it as you talk about it!

It’s going to be AWESOME!

If you can’t attend in person, we’ll send you the video recording along with all handouts.

 

Although they may depart physically, ancestors etch an indelible mark with a powerful influence over an individual’s life. This influence holds insight into many of life’s puzzling aspects. Are the secrets, fears, and superstitions of ancestors responsible for modern beliefs? Have long-lived family patterns emerged into daily life? Perhaps most importantly, how does it all make an impact today, and how can it affect the future? Tapping into this knowledge is the key to personal growth and discovery.  ~ Audrey Chowdhury

What People Are Saying
About Our Virtual Retreat Days

Being on the Zoom video call with others in various stages of discernment and resolution was powerful as well as revelatory. You were a wonderful facilitator!  I really appreciate your generous sharing of all the resources you sent us after the retreat, and your immediate timing.
~ Laura, Michigan

Thank you for presenting the virtual retreat yesterday!    I thought it was very well structured and unfolded smoothly.  I was amazed at how quickly the time passed and thought the content was balanced and relative.  ~ Jenny, Maine

I truly loved this virtual workshop!  It was very enlivening to have the shared experience with others! Thank you so much.  ~ Dee, Wisconsin

What an enriching, healing, beautiful afternoon – thank you!! I shouldn’t be surprised, but I was surprised what came up for me yesterday – but it was what I needed and I can feel a new space of healing that opened within me.  It was such a treat for me as I don’t have a Facilitator in the area to take workshops from for just myself. So to set aside my eyes and ears as a Facilitator and just relax as a participant was a gift.
~ Barbara, Wisconsin

I wasn’t able to attend “live,” but I thoroughly enjoyed watching the video afterwards and found the cards I made as a result richly rewarding.  I definitely feel more connected to the SoulCollage community after this. THANK YOU!  ~ Jan, Canada

This was my first experience using Zoom so I have nothing to compare it to, but I thoroughly enjoyed our small breakout group experiences. I’m certain that there was deeper sharing than we would have had in the large group. For me, it minimized the feeling that I might be taking up too much air time. It also allowed time to digest what was being shared and therefore to respond more deeply with comments or questions.  I am always in awe of the power of the process of SoulCollage®. Again today, with your help and guidance, SoulCollage® moved me. Instead of being stuck in my head, forgiveness has become something I’m feeling at a deeper level – in my heart, in my soul. ~ Beth, Canada

First of all, huge thanks. You went the distance and never seemed the least bit frazzled by anything ( even when I managed to annihilate myself visually or sit on my microphone). Your ability to use WAIT time dazzled me. Too often I zip along if no one pops up with an answer. Bottom line,  you made it possible for me to feel connected and to realize how wide the net really is. ~ Victoria, Florida

Fabulous, just fabulous!  I loved seeing everyone’s faces and more especially their CARDS! ~ Josie, California

What an absolutely amazing class!!!   I have been in a deep process and this just fit into it all.  The depth of your teaching is so moving and powerful.  Thank you, thank you, thank you.  ~ Rita, Canada

Every individual owes existence to someone from the past.
The tales of those ancestors are still waiting to be told
to all who are willing to learn how to listen.
~ Audrey Chowdhury
