SUMMARY:Listening Beneath the Leaves – A SoulCollage® Retreat (In-Person Program)
DESCRIPTION:“Slowly she celebrated the sacrament of Letting Go…\nFirst she surrendered her green\nthen the orange\, Yellow\, and red…\nfinally she let go of her Brown…” \n~ Macrina Wiederkehr\, The Sacrament of Letting Go \n \n\nAs autumn unfolds\, trees begin the ancient work of release. Some leaves drift slowly to the earth in a graceful dance of color. Others are swept away by fierce wind and storm\, stripping the branches bare. Each\, in its own time\, lets go\, reminding us that release is not always easy or graceful\, yet it remains part of life’s sacred rhythm. \nOur own lives often follow this same rhythm. Some seasons invite us to release gradually\, while others bring unexpected change that asks us to let go before we feel ready. Both can become acts of trust that make space for rest\, renewal\, and new life to emerge. \nGuided by the wisdom of the season\, we will enter this ancient rhythm through the intuitive\, image-based practice of SoulCollage®. Through creative expression\, gentle reflection\, and sacred community\, you will be invited to explore what may be ready for release\, what has come to completion\, and what quiet invitations are waiting to be heard beneath the leaves. \nThrough images and intuition\, SoulCollage® becomes a gentle companion\, helping us discover the wisdom already present within. No artistic or collaging experience is needed. Using images from magazines and other sources\, you will create your own SoulCollage®cards. The process is not about making art but about creating meaningful images that become windows into your own sacred journey. \nCome with an open heart and a spirit of curiosity as we listen beneath the leaves for the quiet voice of the soul. \nAll materials are provided. Please bring a bag lunch. Whether you are discovering SoulCollage® for the first time or returning to a familiar practice\, this retreat offers a welcoming space to slow down\, listen deeply\, and explore the wisdom within. \nDATE: Friday\, October 23\, 2026 \nTIME: 9:30 AM – 4:00 PM \nCOST: $70 \nLOCATION: Well for the Journey – 120 W.
