Our very first season of SoulCircle begins
October 2, 2022!
Join SoulCircle to align with your personal power in a safe, supportive community of like-minded women.
Weekly sessions are a mix of camaraderie, playfulness, and deep exploration as we unlock the mysteries of life together through visual journaling with the SoulPages™ method.
About SoulCircle
SoulCircle is a unique gathering of women who commit to meeting regularly in an ongoing series of weekly sessions—sometimes live in Zoom and other times using self-paced recordings—that invite us into deeper level of self-acceptance and affirmation of our place in the world.
Our themed sessions may often include guest teachers who honor the sacred space we share and are familiar with the powerful SoulPages™ method.
As a SoulCircle member, you are encouraged to share your weekly journal spread in our private, members-only Facebook group.
There simply is nothing else like this women-only, relationship-building, creative visual journaling, and empowering experience.
Season 1: Healing Stories
Weekly: October 2 – December 4, 2022
(We will not meet November 27 due to the Thanksgiving holiday.)
Immerse yourself in weekly sessions that invite you into a place of wellbeing and wholeness through the powerful exploration of stories that are deeply embedded in our psyche. SoulCircle provides a sanctuary for discovery through the collective celebration of our individual creativity and gifts.
Why Healing Stories?
Stories have always been a way for people to share, connect, get closer and heal themselves and others around them. In the visual journal we tell stories through the seven elements: intention, magical coincidence, background, color, images, text and line.
In each lesson, we will learn from a different artist or teacher, growing together through her special way of telling stories with art.
We create using a variety of materials while we learn an abundance of mixed media techniques. Our stories become a catalyst for healing and blessing in our lives.
In this unique, pilot season, each teacher will offer new ways to write our stories as we learn to express them using the soulful language of art.

The process of self-binding the journal, the work inside it thereafter, and the gentle guidance of a trustworthy instructor allow us to go through processes of growth and healing, and open to sparks of joy and passion.

Frequently Asked Questions:
How do I know if SoulCircle is right for me?
SoulCircle is for women who love art and want to grow personally and spiritually in a safe, supportive community. It helps to have a playful, open heart just like you do when you are among trusted friends.
Do I need to be an artist? I don't feel like I'm very good at art or drawing.
You are warmly welcome in our SoulCircle community regardless of your experience or “skill” level with art. SoulCircle is a community of women who enjoy looking inward for healing and wellness. Art journals is just a tool for this process because creating in lines, colors, and images helps us to access deep wisdom that is often buried in our subconscious mind.
What materials will I need?
You will be provided with a list of materials prior to each week’s session. In general, you will want basic art supplies like watercolors, acrylics, inks, gesso, collage images, glue, scissors, brushes, waterproof pens, gel pens, markers, colored pencils, or even crayons. Remember, SoulCircle and the creation of SoulPages™ is not about making art as much as it is about the process of listening within your heart and creating something visual to further connect to your heart’s message.
If the teacher lists materials that you do not have and do not want to purchase, there are always alternatives that can be used. Just reach out to your teacher for suggestions on materials that you can substitute.
Is Healing Stories is a course?
Healing Stories is the theme we are using for Season 1 of SoulCircle, and is reflected in each week’s gathering.
How long do the weekly live sessions take?
Though the time may vary, you should allow for 90 minutes – 2 hours for the live sessions.
Is there homework?
Sometimes you may want to continue working on your spread after the live session has ended. This is common as the meaning of the spread may deepen while you are working on it. Additionally, it can be soothing to work on your spread, and of course you can also just PLAY and have FUN with it!
What are the technology requirements?
You will want a good internet connection, camera and microphone. Most computers and laptops have this capability. You’ll also want decent lighting, so you’re not in shadow and we can see your smile.
Teachers will use overhead cameras so you can see them actively working on a spread, but as a SoulCircle member an overhead camera is not required.
Are there language requirements?
SoulCircle is open to women from all backgrounds who are 18 years of age and older. All courses are conducted in English. It is helpful for SoulCircle members to have a conversational knowledge of English.
Are you ready to join SoulCircle?
Bring your authentic self as we journey together using the SoulPages™ method for insight, healing, and joy.
