Last updated over 1 year ago. What is this?

Soulmaking, as envisioned by Rob Burbea, is the imaginative and profound process through which individuals deepen their inner experience and cultivate a richly textured inner world. It involves engaging with life's experiences, emotions, and challenges in a creative and meaningful way, thereby bringing depth and nuance to one's consciousness. Through practices like meditation, contemplation, and artistic expression, one invites a co-creative interplay between the inner and outer worlds, invoking myth, archetype, and personal narrative. This process not only enriches the individual’s inner landscape but also fosters a sense of connectedness and sacredness within the fabric of existence. Soulmaking is thus a journey of continuous transformation, where each moment of awareness and engagement contributes to the unfolding and embellishment of the soul’s intricate tapestry.
