"SoulCollage has made a great change in my life. Before taking this class I was living a bored and depressed life and constantly getting into trouble. Now I don't have time to be bored and trouble is a thing of the past. I no longer allow stress to invade my lifestyle. Whenever something starts stressing me out or I start feeling depressed, I go and start doing some S-O-U-L-C-O-L-L-A-G-I-N-G"

The Power of SoulCollage®
As a child I had a loneliness about myself. I have always had a problem expressing how I felt about things. I always worried about how other people felt about me. I always went out of my way to please and make the other person happy. At the time I did not know I was doing myself more harm than good.
Now that I am an adult, I have just now found a way to express myself without talking, without criticism, without judgment, and no feedback. It is a way to release my inner thoughts and feelings without harming myself or others. It helps me get it out without saying a word. This helps me when I cry, when I laugh, when I feel depressed, when I’m alright.
SoulCollage® has been such a beautiful alternative to the world of medicine. It has allowed me a way to release some of my inner hurt and pain in my life. It has helped me to appreciate all of my so many blessings. I have learned a way to express myself in a way that brings beauty to the eyes and the soul. It relaxes me and brings joy to my heart. It will always be a therapeutic way to relieve myself for the rest of my life.
I also feel that this would be something important to introduce to any children who are having mental conditions. It will give them a chance to express some of the pain that they carry. It will give them a chance to break the chain of mental illness in their families. It will help them grow to be strong mentally and become productive adults with no fears. I probably would not be this way had I had something like this earlier in my life. I truly appreciate the opportunity of being introduced to SoulCollage® . I give thanks to Sarah and the rest of my Recovery Center Family.
Thank You!
"I am one who sees our youth as the beauty and peace of the world.
Through Their tears, laughter, happiness, sadness; during curiosity,
play and even when asleep they have big dreams.
They bring me so much peace and make me smile."
