Be Your Own Oracle: A Reflective & Creative Workshop

We have been conditioned to look outside of ourselves for guidance, affirmation, and validation.

While this is part of the human experience and there is no shame in this impulse, we can miss so much of our own power, magic, and wisdom when we place our attention externally.

We carry so much clairty and awareness within our souls and there are endless signs from the Universe all around us.

To reclaim your inherent wisdom and connect with the Divine signs in your life, we invite you to journey inward, reflecting on the beauty, strength, and creativity that resides within. The magic is always flowing around you… the secret is learning how to dance with it. Engage your senses in the process of making. Get cozy and sink into the season of winter with us as we embark on a journey with the soul– letting go of old stories and alchemizing outdated beliefs into medicine for your spirit.

Not only will you enter a loving, sacred space that will invite your spiritual wisdom to surface, but you’ll connect with grounded, inspiring women and work with your hands to craft a piece of visual art combined with the written word to use as self led guidance in your daily life . The soulful, intuitive piece that you’ll create can act as a small oracle deck, a heartfelt gift for someone special in your life, a series of mini vision boards that you can frame & gaze upon for inspiration, or anything else that feels fitting for you.

As two women who are creating a professional oracle deck together, we are personally lit up by the idea of a mini DIY oracle deck, and we’ll provide guidance & ideas to follow this path, but what you create is ultimately up to you.

You do not have to identify as creative, artistic, or a writer to benefit or feel safe and at ease in this space!

During this 4 hour workshop you will:

• Connect with yourself and the other women present through intentional, open hearted dialogue.
• Meditate and ground through a guided visualization designed to connect you with your inner wisdom and the signs in your life.
• Immerse yourself in selected books & pieces of writing, selecting golden nuggets that speak to you on a soul level.
• Take part in journaling practices that invite you to reflect, visioncast, and transmute.
• Create your own oracle cards or soul collage to use as self led guidance in your daily life. We’ll get crafty with cardstock, glue, scissors, magazines, and photos.
• Have the opportunity to share what you've created with the group, being witnessed and supported in your process & dsicoveries.
• You'll also be free to pop out into Chagrin Falls if you want to grab a snack or walk along the river for fresh air and inspiration.

What’s Included:

• An incredible space with cozy couches, comfy chairs, a large community dining table, plus 3 other private rooms decorated to perfection in case you need to sneak away for some solitude! Bathroom & mini kitchen space available to you as well.
• Materials to create your oracle cards or soul collage (cardstock, scissors, magazines, salvaged books, calendars, glue, watercolors, glitter)
• Hot water & tea (please feel free to bring your own food or pop out for takeout from one of Chagrin Fall's many shops & restaurants).
• Guided meditation & visualization to connect you with your soul's wisdom & magic
• Educational, inspiring dialogue & writing practices offered & facilitated by Intuitive Life Coach & Women’s Circle Facilitator, Steph Trzaska & Photographic Artist & NLP Certified Mentor, Bianca Morra

What You Should Bring:

• Water bottle
• Your favorite snacks (or even your guilty pleasure takeout!)
• Any photos or old hand written notes from home that you may like to use in this project (more details & guidance provided via email once you’ve purchased your ticket)
• Yoga mat & blanket (if desired-- there's plenty of couches and comfy chiars but if you like to work on the floor, a mat can come in handy!)
• Journal and/or computer (whichever you prefer to write on)

We invite you to join us in resetting your internal rhythms as we step into the new year. After the intensity of the holidays, we can find ourselves spread thin and veering away from our boundaries and inner compass. Give yourself the gift of presence, embodiment, and rootedness while also making powerful connections with other radiant women.

Bianca Morra

Bianca is an artist, educator, & mother exploring consciousness, presence, & transcendence through photographic practice.

It is deeply important to Bianca to explore the ways in which she can utilize photographic practice to broaden the conversation of how photographs can be less about forgetting/remembering and more about how they help us see more now while we are still living it.
