I would like to take the Soul Comfort Course because I think that the mix of art therapy and getting to know myself deep within my soul would be really good for myself right now. This summer I spent 12 weeks in a trauma treatment centre due to horrific childhood abuse and as a result I suffer from depression, anxiety, and post traumatic stress disorder. The transition home from the centre has been hard too and I think that this course would help me with the transition by giving me extra positive support now and throughout the holiday season. It would allow me positive nurtance of my body and soul, allow me to express myself through art, it would allow me to self care instead of me bouncing back to my old negative coping mechanisms. I think it would be amazing for me. Thank you for this opportunity! Autumne_horan@hotmail.com

WOW! What a bright and inviting blog you have. I've found so many new blogs to visit on a regular basis!!

When I think of Soul Comfort, I think of that moment when I feel loved, protected, and at peace. Peace is seriously lacking right now. I would want to take this class to learn how to find a place of peace and rest among all the turmoil around me.

I think as women we were created to be nurturers. We sometimes get so caught up in nurturing those around us that we just plain for get to nurture ourselves. AND we often feel guilty for taking time for ourselves when there is so much "busy-ness" to get done.
Thank you for this opportunity to take this class. Winning this class would be the only way I could take it right now.

To me, soul comfort means peace and quiet. It means taking time to enjoy the simple pleasures of life. Getting comfy and cozy...even just taking very deep breaths and being aware of all the blessings that surround me.
Thank you for offering this chance!

We as women have a difficult time with self care because we are naturally the nurturers. We take care of everyone else but ourselves and even feel guilty when taking time and doing something for ourselves. We end up finding ourselves lost, tired and depleted, unable to give our best to ourselves and those we love. So taking this course would help me in getting down to the “soul comfort” of nurturing my own soul. I’m hoping this course can bring a calmness and peace that is so desired in my life.

I have always naturally felt the need to take care of my family first. I was an only child, took care of my parents as they aged, took care of my 6 children as a single parent. Taking care of myself is very foreign concept to me, even now as a senior person. Life is chaotic, even now, having peace and calm in my life would be a Comfort to my Soul. I think this holiday season will be no different unless I learn a way to simplify and create calm in my life.
Thank you for this opportunity! Regards, Kay P.

Soul comfort to me means enjoying the simple things. To really feel and experience the everyday things.

Women are created to be a caregiver, it gives us joy to serve our families. We get caught up in making sure everyone’s needs are met. Personally it makes me truly happy to do what I do. This class will help me to simplify in every area of my life I am certain. I want to focus on me so I can be soul happy and not the tired, stressed Miss Grumpy pants.

It is my experience that I tend to lack in the self care department because I am focused on trying to care for others. Problem is….you need to take care of yourself before you can really care for others (I liken it to the oxygen mask on an airplane….. you are supposed to apply your mask first – THEN help others.) I see this course as my oxygen mask, helping me center myself… taking time to heal myself… so that I can meet the holidays and all that comes with them – head on.

To me, soul comfort means finding peace and contentment in a busy world. And a class that can teach me ways to find that on a daily basis would be truly valuable.

Thanks so much for the chance to win!! I've never taken a Brave Girls course, but would love to!
I think we get so caught up in taking care of everyone else, that our own care gets pushed to the back burner. Holidays are hard for me, since losing my mom to cancer in 2003. I think this course would be great to explore some new ways of expressing my feelings.

Art Prompt: A Collage of Your Favorite Things

Some of my favorite things: gardens, beaches, porches, sunsets, snorkeling, dancing, sailing, holding hands, good food & drink, feeling a breeze, receiving flowers, breathtaking views, paint & brushes If you need a creative boost, a collage of your favorite things just might perk up your spirit. Here are some ideas for getting started: - collect some of your well read magazines and start cutting out images that resonate with you. No need for a lot of thought here. Colors and patterns may catch your eye, faces or rooms might pique your interest, titles of articles may draw your attention.  - find colorful patterned papers from gift bags, tissue inserts, the inside of security envelopes , junk mail, or greeting cards.  - look for images online and print them on your printer Snip away until you have a group of images and letters to start.   You can adhere your images of favorite things onto a piece of card stock or any heavy weight paper you might have on hand.

The Zen of Doodle

There is a peacefulness and calm about making lines, shapes, letters, and dots. Music in the background, a stream of thought, the texture of the paper, flow of the pen... and the joy of imagining.  A piece of paper and a pen.  Blissful simplicity.
