In SoulCollage® we choose one of the primary images and imagine we are embodying that image. From the perspective of the image we speak beginning with the phrase "I am one who."
So for me, when I speak from the perspective of the sleeping woman I would say:
"I am one who feels protected at night for I am safely guarded by the strength and wisdom of the energy of my animal companion."

Healing with SoulCollage®
(published in Imagery International's "ImagiNews" July 2012)
Tara came to my office exhausted and fearful. She found out that her husband had been having an affair. She was stunned and definitely not able or ready to make any decisions. She reflected, "I feel like I am losing myself". Although this woman was a dedicated mother, and gifted artist with a successful business, her identity as the betrayed spouse overcame her like a tidal wave and she spiraled into a depression.
We created a customized audio with her unique imagery of relaxation, inspiration and empowerment. She listened daily to this audio. It helped her to self soothe when she couldn’t sleep or when she felt triggered. As we explored in our imagery sessions the early experiences of abandonment and feelings of invisibility that were now manifesting again, she began to make important connections and embarked on the deep process of nurturing that lost inner child.
After a few sessions I told her about SoulCollage®. Her eyes lit up, and with just a little instruction and some recommended videos to watch--she returned the next week with 15 completed SoulCollage® Cards. In each card of various images she had included one cutout of a photograph of her face. One I especially remember was a photo of a man gazing lovingly, admiringly, on a garden of orchids. Nestled in the blossom of one of these orchids was Tara's face. She showed me the card and said--"This is how I want to be seen".
The following week she invited her husband to do SoulCollage® and to her surprise he agreed. They are now working on their relationship not only in couple's counseling but also with this powerful process of bringing the denied and fragmented aspects of their lives and their relationship into focus through the lens of SoulCollage®.
A week later she appeared with 15 more cards, describing the many parts of herself and the various roles she saw herself embodying. She spoke from the perspective of the images on the card "I am one who. …”
She returns to her sessions now with a resolve to create her life in a new way. She is finding herself again---putting together the pieces and truly seeing her own essence. Now, her inner artist emerges boldly, and one card in particular seems to gaze back at her with true recognition--admiringly, lovingly.
Although she faces the challenges ahead of deciding whether or not to remain in the marriage, it is the power of imagery that is in part, carrying her through this crisis in her life. It is the power of imagery that deepens her experience of unity within. It is a beautiful unfolding to witness.
