Upcoming Tele-Playshops
March:
Creating a Personal History Suit
for Your SoulCollage Deck
with special guest Anne Boedecker
Join us for a special hour with Anne Boedecker of Bow, New Hampshire, who has created a Personal History Suit for her SoulCollage Deck. She will talk about how she came to do this, and give suggestions for how you can do the same. She'll also lead you gently through a short process that will help you discern what your own Personal History Suit might look like. There will also be time for questions and idea sharing.
Anne Boedecker is a psychotherapist and collage artist who uses expressive art for spiritual growth and healing. Her passion is the creative care of the soul thorough art, music, writing, meditation and movement. See her website,
Art Heals the Soul.

April:
Your Personal Totem Pole
Presenter: Anne Marie Bennett
Do you get the part about animal totems but aren't sure how they're related to the chakras? Then join us for this tele-class which will be (in part) based on the book The Personal Totem Pole, by Eligio Stephen Gallegos (more information below in the Books section). This is the book that Seena Frost references when she talks about the Companions Suit of our SoulCollage Decks. We'll talk about animal totems and we'll talk about chakras, but most of this class we'll be talking about how the two are intertwined. This will make a huge difference in your understanding of the Companions Suit and of your animal guides' place in your life as well.
Date: Sunday April 15, 2007
Time: 6 pm EST
Save the dates now. The tele-playshops are FR*EE for all members, always! We'll send you the phone number to call in upcoming issues of Soul Treasures. And remember, don't worry if you can't attend... we'll be recording them and you can listen to them anytime in your Member's Only Audio Library.
 Soul Nourishment
Books, movies, music, & websites to support your inner work as you dive deeper into your soul....
Books:
The True Power of Water: Healing and Discovering Ourselves, by Masaru Emoto. A powerful little book! Japanese researcher Emoto has done a lot of work with the power of water to heal us physically and emotionally. He has scientifically proven the effects of gratitude, love and positive thinking on water crystals. And since human beings are 70% water... well, the consequences have a direct impact on our daily lives. Beautiful photographs too!
Romancing the Ordinary: A Year of Simple Splendor, by Sarah Ban Breathnach. I love this book because it feels beautiful in my hands, plus each of the short readings helps to keep me centered and balanced throughout the year. Keep this one on your night table or read a little every morning. Excellent quotations for anyone else who collects them.
Healthy Living From The Inside Out: Every Woman's Guide to Real Beauty, Renewed Energy, and a Radiant Life, by Mariel Hemingway. I heard this book mentioned on a talk show and immediately checked it out of the library. Just a few pages in, I ordered myself my own copy. Hemingway focuses on four main themes to renew our inner and outer lives: food, movement, silence, and home. It is immensely readable, and more important than that, it is immensely practical and do-able. Also available on CD.
Movies:
The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants- Wouldn't you love to own a pair of jeans that makes you look slim and beautiful, no matter what shape your body is in? This pair of jeans, passed back and forth and around this circle of 4 teenage girls, does just that and more. I found this movie engaging and a very honest, real portrayal of growing up/coming of age as a young women. Not just for teenagers. Heartfelt, beautifully acted by America Ferrara (now starring as "Ugly Betty" and Amber Tamblyn (formerly Joan in Joan of Arcadia).
Websites:
AcapellaSoul- Wonderful, in-depth SoulCollage blog by our own Kindred Spirit Cheryl in Illinois.
Lucky 7 Internet Radio- If your computer has sound capability, this site has a huge array of choices for background listening music while you're online.
Amethyst Meditation Gardens- Several online meditations for renewing and relaxing. Beautiful!
