Collage Mindmap Workshop for 2026

Collage Mindmapping Workshop for 2026

Join us on the final evening of the year for a gentle, intentional gathering devoted to honoring what has been and making space for what’s to come. Karla (self.img) and Gab (enid) invite you into a cozy, relaxed setting where we’ll slow down, reflect together, and set thoughtful intentions for the new year ahead.

This workshop is designed to feel grounding, creative, and low-pressure — there’s no “right way” to reflect or plan here. Whether your year felt expansive, heavy, joyful, confusing, or all of the above, you’re welcome exactly as you are.

Understanding Mindmapping

Mind mapping is a visual, non-linear way of organizing thoughts, ideas, and intentions around a central theme — in this case, your vision for the year ahead. Instead of writing your goals as a straight list, you place your main idea in the center (in this case, 2026) and “branch out” into related thoughts, sub-goals, and inspirations. This approach mirrors the way many of our thoughts organically connect, helping you see patterns, priorities, and relationships between your ideas.

What we’ll be doing together:

Altar Creation
We’ll begin by co-creating a temporary altar as a way to honor the past year. Each participant will be invited to place meaningful objects onto the altar, creating a shared space of reflection, gratitude, and release. This altar gently acknowledges the experiences, lessons, and moments that shaped us over the year — both the beautiful and the challenging.

Collage Mind-Mapping for the New Year
Using collage, words, and intuitive mapping, you'll organize your goals, intentions, and curiosities for the year ahead. This isn’t about rigid resolutions — it’s about noticing themes, desires, and directions that want to emerge. You’re welcome to arrive with ideas already in mind or to discover them organically during the process.

Come to sit, cut, paste, reflect, and dream with us as we close out the year together.

We invite you to bring the following:

For mind-mapping ♡

• Your planner or journal for the new year (optional — we’ll provide paper for anyone who prefers not to work in their own notebook)
• A general idea of goals or intentions for the year ahead. You can bring a list if you’d like, or simply come open to discovering them during the workshop.
• Journals will also be available for purchase at the workshop if you’d like to begin the new year with a fresh journal and your completed mind map.

For the altar ♡

• One special object from the earth that you acquired this year (a rock, seashell, leaf, twig, etc.)
• One miscellaneous object that held meaning for you this year — a teddy bear, trinket, compass, bowl, book, or anything else that feels significant

Note: All altar objects are temporary and will be returned to you at the end of the workshop.

We look forward to closing out the year with you ♡
