reSOURCING™ the Golden Shadow: Collage with Creativity and Spirit
with emphasis on stabilization, nervous system regulation, somatic awareness, and intuitive, creative connection to process
reSOURCED™: Unearthing and polishing your innate golden gifts (golden shadow)—in connection with Spirit allies, re-energizing, reclaiming and cultivating the shining uniqueness of you that’s been hidden, on the sideline, held small, or suppressed.
Sift, sort, remember, and rediscover anew the felt sense of self with wonder through creative practice, curiosity, and rich reSOURCING™.
Please note that this offering is in support of wholeness, not intended to bypass nor suppress difficulties in one’s life, but rather to have an additional experience of being able to access a creative process in order to come to know that we can also have moments of a sense of safety, playfulness, connection, etc at the very same time. That dysregulation and regulation are both flavors of a spectrum of experience and we can increase flexibility in that spectrum.
“Whether you succeed or not is irrelevant, there is no such thing. Making your unknown known is the important thing.” ~ Georgia O'Keeffe

Cool! Those possibilities exist here! Join us as we explore our consciousness, connected flow, Golden aspects, and our Spirit allies.
If you don’t think you’re creative, or are shrinking at the (false) belief that you can’t create, consider joining us anyway and we’ll dance in that discomfort together with curiosity to see if there’s a possible way to love and liberate space inside those beliefs.
This is about experiential process, not outcome, object, comparison, nor measure.
“Art finds her own perfection within, and not outside of, herself. She is not to be judged by any external standard of resemblance.” ~ Oscar Wilde

The Golden Shadow (Golden Aspects)
Jung wrote about the Golden Shadow as parts of ourselves that are either suppressed or unconscious/unknown to us because we deem them dark/bad/unacceptable/unworthy.
It is possible to come to know the golden unknown aspects within—the parts of ourselves not yet cultivated or fully developed—in the creative process.
What if we approach as if we know we have a golden aspect of consciousness waiting to emerge through and in union with our human expression.
What if we approach from curious wonder and playfulness, free from expectation, and allow space for what wants to emerge now?

Animal/Spirit allies and competent protector archetypes:
We will use imagery of animals, plants, birds, insects, etc to create an ally/competent protector/guardian card.
In Somatic Experiencing (SE), we sometimes call on allies/competent protectors to support trauma resolution and nervous system resilience. In the context of this class, we’ll be exploring this concept through the lens of a Spirit ally, a guardian with us through all realms—physical and non-physical. And also the ally as self (ie the lioness within).
In physical life, and also when opening to spiritual connection in non-physical realms, spirit allies and competent guardian guides are highly useful. And can help us to remain present in the Earthly realm while still connected to other energetic realms.
This can also be an exploration of plant/flower allies that support our awakened growth.

reSOURCED™
Creating collage evocative of a sense of Source Creation/Oneness. If one does not have a belief in spiritual/energetic Oneness, there is the option to create a collage of connection with the universe or the cosmos, the personal oneness of parts of the body, or anything else that for you symbolizes the mysteries and interconnectedness of life.
We will have guided processes to support being inward, in one’s center, and accessing connection from that space.
"You use a glass mirror to see your face; you use works of art to see your soul."
~ George Bernard Shaw
I founded the Heart Star Center for Healing and Intuitive Arts™ to provide offerings that support the creation of conditions for healing and a reUNION with Somatic Soul Wisdom and Infinite Intelligence.
Heart Star Arts™: A creative, coherent, healing Heart path to the center of awareness, resourcing, and trusting Inner Wisdom—the wisdom of the body, mind, and spirit as one. A creative path to resolving inner conflicts, unresolved traumas, and chronic stress reactions and patterns. A creative path for balanced re-UNION of the parts of self that have separated or tangled, a creative access portal to the expansive, wise, playful, intuitive Wisdom Ways within.
As we grow, stay tuned for more intuitive development, creative expression, and healing practitioner trainings. In the meantime, we offer private healing sessions, group events, and limited invite only 1:1 Inner Alchemy Arc offerings.
This process of collage is partially based on and inspired by the works of Joseph Cornell, Seena B. Frost, who created Soul Collage®, Sensorimotor Art Therapy® developed by Cornelia Elbrecht, Somatic Experiencing® developed by Peter Levine, Heart Star Center for Healing and Intuitive Arts™, which I founded, historical collage arts research, and my personal experiences newly rewoven from years of my own professional and personal art making for exhibiting, healing, play, work with clients, and inner connection—in other words, reSOURCING™—coming home to the Source within.
“At the deepest level, the creative process and the healing process arise from a single source. When you are an artist, you are a healer; a wordless trust of the same mystery is the foundation of your work and its integrity.”
