When I was a young girl my Soul Desire was to be French. At 30 years old I got my nationality, and bought my home in Tuchan, a small Cathar village. |
Scrapbooking Your Soul Desire
is more than a scrapbooking session, it is your story, illustrated, designed and created by you about you or what is dear to you. You will learn a narrative structure and channel your inner artist.
Your story will come in many forms
This workshop will help you decide how to tell your story
Before our session
I will send you a form to fill. I'd like to know a bit about you before we start. I like to use some basic astrology, it is a great way for me to get a glimpse of you.
My own story
often features in my writing and is hidden in my documentary films through my characters who are often marginalised persons or misplaced.
I was adopted which means two families, two identities, two mothers, and two fathers, one Muslim and the other Jewish. This duplicate double is also a major theme in my life. I have learnt to use it to my advantage.
I lived and worked in China for years, yet was a Canadian citizen. Now back in Europe I travel between my beloved village in France and the UK.
Before, as a younger woman, it was Iran and Australia.
I have channelled my story to perfection
I am in love with it, telling it in many ways from different angles.
Working for 17 years in Montreal, Canada,
as a natural therapist, as well as a filmmaker, helped me KNOW the soul, and not be afraid to delve deeply into my own story and share it, as well as appreciate other people's stories. I like to listen and have a real affection for life and people.
I am your guide and can help you bring your story into another realm.
is more than a scrapbooking session, it is your story, illustrated, designed and created by you about you or what is dear to you. You will learn a narrative structure and channel your inner artist.
Your story will come in many forms
- from your memory
- your writing
- photos or objects.
- We will look at how to cast these magically onto your table before you chose your scrapbook and the genre.
- From our past is our present. Our present becomes that possible future.
- By going back over old narratives we can change them to perceive them differently. For we now see through different eyes, a different lens
This workshop will help you decide how to tell your story
- what story you would like to tell, and why you want to tell it.
- Are there moments of pain which you need to work through?
- What is that memory which lingers that you need to talk about?
- What are the joys, what are moments that have challenged you and have changed you?
- What did you do and how can you pass on your knowledge to others?

- Does it hurt? Yes, sometimes I still get deep-soul-pain about my biological mother who abandoned me and my brother. He was two years old; I luckily was only a baby. Dominic languished in an orphanage till four. However, this is also a part of my internal search for that identity which has taken me on many journies.
