WHAT’S INSIDE?

Lesson 1 Build the book

This is where you build the book. Learn how to put the CSB together, how to scrunch and glue the pages and how to make a cover for your book. This is an exciting start to the class and one of my favorite things to do. Scrunching the pages is sort of a meditative thing to do in itself- you get your hands on every page transferring your DNA to the book. It becomes an extension of you for your creative journey. Be prepared to spend a couple hours doing this part. Gluing and scrunching takes time. Turn on some music and enjoy the process.

Lesson 2 Pockets

Making pockets within the pages of your book. Here you will make two pockets ( but you can make as many as you like!) out of the very pages you scrunched and glued. You can fill them with awesome bits and pieces of ephemera you collect over time or for keeping your secrets written on pieces of paper. Anything goes for what you use them for!

Lesson 3 Resting

Here you will learn one of the most valuable tools you ever will have with CSB. The resting page. This page will help you lay down worries, conflicts, anxieties, distractions, and you can let them go or you can come back to them later. Let them sink away into your layers as you receive rest, from the act of resting your troubles.

Lesson 4 Part 1 Meditation/ Visualization

Meditation is scientifically proven to help your mind and body to relax and to help with anxiety and depression. In this Visualization you take a trip to meet your muse and receive a gift from her! You can revisit the meditation as many times as you like.

Lesson 4 Part 2 Grounding Page

Grounding pages are similar to resting pages but, they are actually quite different. They help you center, and remain mindful. Grounding is where you go when you feel overwhelmed and you need space to take a deep breath. Grounding will help you find center and regain your internal compass direction of true North.

BONUS Gratitude Page

This page is done in good faith to you as a gift for purchasing the class. Gratitude is something that when developed over time can really help with anxiety, depression, and pessimism. Developing a gratitude habit can help you release tension and embrace joy and optimism. Enjoy this page and use it as another tool in your medicine basket that is Cosmic Smashbooking.

Here you can share your work, ask for insight and strategies etc. This is a safe and warm environment. I will be present to help with questions and guidance. Please join this group as it will help you get even more out of your CSB experience! ( NOT NECESSARY FOR THE CLASS BUT HELPFUL)
