Origins of the Soul Pod

Welcome friends to the origin story of the birth of the Soul Pod a wilderness and environmentally guided creative arts classroom. I, Corrine McConville, Will be your guide as we embark on the journey all the way back to its inception. When the soul pod was just a tiny, planted seed deep in the imagination of the psyche of one small wild celestial being….

Growing up in the Mountains of Pennsylvania posed to be the biggest blessing this small curious child could ask for. Waking up everyday in the silence of the wilderness with birds chirping, leaves rustling, moss squishing between toes, surrounded by enough space for full creative and bodily autonomy; running, jumping, climbing, collecting, building… trees, bugs, sticks, rocks, forts. Here is where a foundational attribute was embedded into the soul of this tiny being, a WAY of being, and a massive unfolding of the way that one chooses to move through the surrounding world. Cultivating a sense of wonder, curiosity & play, while growing one’s intuition, through practices of mindfulness and awareness. A beautiful full and vibrant spectrum of the wild laid upon one’s tiny toes creating a deeply burrowed understanding of the dangers, the necessities and the serenities of one’s environment.
