WOO-HOO!!! Here’s some class details:
To the tired, the exhausted, the overstretched…here’s an invitation…
Life can be simple.
What if we celebrated the brave act of….taking a break?
What if simplicity,
comfort, and quiet were the goal?
What if there really was a way to quiet the chatter in our minds and let us recharge our body & soul?
And what if it was fun, too?
Introducing a new eCourse . . .
Soul Comfort
Soul Comfort is a fresh new concept using art and journaling as a means to relax and comfort yourself and to get grounded while dealing with the craziness of every-day living.
This course if full of beautiful projects to fuel your creativity in very simple and easy ways that are meditational and relaxing , beautiful comforting things that will have your soul infused into them so that you want to keep them forever.
Melody (course creator and teacher) says, “I want to teach you some new habits of creativity mixed with simplicity that I have learned over the years. Being a recovering hoarder of supplies and techniques, this is really a new way to give yourself permission to do things simply but beautifully.
One of the most wonderful things about this course is that everything fits into one fabric tote bag . . . I wanted to create a whole course where all of the supplies fit into a tiny space so that you could take it everywhere you go…so that you could do it sitting on your bed, on your couch, with your family, do it with your children, in the car, wherever your day takes you. It’s incredible. This has changed my life. This has been something that I have used on my own and I can’t wait to share it with you.”
You can count on this class to be . . .
- enlightening, enjoyable, fun, & simple
- customizable with many choices to fit your exact style
- interactive, encouraging, and supportive with a private community on Facebook and weekly live chats
- a beautiful experience that will help you relax, simplify, and enjoy your life
- a place to learn simple new ways to journal, plus the ”Brave Girl” way to use stitching and such to create both beautiful things you’ll love AND peaceful relaxing moments
- a place to learn exactly what nourishes YOUR body and soul, and how to fit comforting rituals into your day
- something that you can finish without feeling overwhelmed
- produced with the level of caring and excellence and attention to detail that Brave Girls Club is known for
We’ve worked to narrow down things to quench the yearning of your soul…to be able to be creative but also to be sensitive to the mess that it makes and the time that it takes as well as the brain space it takes for complicated tools and techniques. We will teach you fun ways to make beautiful things while relaxing yourself . . .and we’ll be participating in the class right along with you.
- This will be relaxing, fun, and simple
- You’ll be able to take it along with you, everywhere you go
- Instead of overwhelming you with one more thing to stress out about, this eCourse will help you relax, enjoy, and feel comfort and peace no matter what else is going on in your life.
It is YOUR time for some Soul Comfort. Come join us!

Lounging on fluffy pillows, curled up soaking up love from the One who made me with the love of my life next to me. Having something hot to drink would also be a must.
I think of sinking into my comfy chair with tea or cocoa and just breathing for a while. Becoming more centered. Thank you very much for the chance!!!
When I hear the words soul comfort I think about being deeply rooted in the ground, I think of being empathic of myself, self care, and being gentle with myself. I have post traumatic stress disorder and spent the summer in trauma treatment centre, soul comfort would help me with the transition from this centre to home, self care, connection to self, and self love.
I will be feeling gratitude for every blessing in my life, provided by my Father in heaven. Then expressing that gratitude creatively completes the “Soul Comfort” time of fellowship. My comfy lounger and a cup of tea (in a pretty cup and saucer) would complete the picture.
I think of the simple things I love: warm sweater, cute boots, a Starbucks mocha and a doodle journal with my favorite pen! It’s these times…
Soul comfort…cuddling by the fire, sipping tea or hot cocoa. Hearing the rain, smelling the wet earth…and feeling completely happy and content. Savoring the moment ❤
I cannot help but think of a newborn baby that is being snuggled and comforted, feeling safe and protected. That is exactly what Soul Comfort makes me think of. Thank you for this wonderful opportunity to win a spot in Soul Comfort eCourse. I’m just finishing up the Soul Restoration eCourse and this would be a wonderful continuation with Brave Girls. Thank you!! 🙂
Me, God, Art, Butterflies and quiet, all mixed together!! I don’t get the quiet often enough!!!
Thank you!!
Being surrounded by books, some lit candles, maybe a fire burning. Also the sounds of my little 4-year old happily singing or playing by herself. These things warm my soul.
When I hear the words “soul comfort” I think of a sense of peace during the chaotic holiday season. I think of warm coffee, quiet, and my puppy laying against me.
Thank you so much for the chance to win!

When I hear Soul Comfort I think of slowing down, unplugging and taking time to just breathe.
Soul comfort Makes me think of being able to truly balance my life and work, to have nourishing and delightful food, to light a candle and feel completely at ease with myself and the world
The healing of a very broken soul and spirit! Mine has been both with the death of my spouse!
Soul Comfort to me is calmness, peace, a quiet moment, and even as simple as a deep breathe
To me the words “soul comfort” give the impression of being whole, healed, filled with peace & joy. It makes me feel as though I am nurtured and loved.
Ahhhh…I thing of simple pleace and quiet solitude.
Soul Comfort makes me think of being aware of the bliss in each day.

Again thanks for hosting!
Soul Comfort = solitude. My primary focus in life is to raise healthy, happy, strong and independent daughters. Over the past year, I have made a bit of progress in taking better care of myself and my daughters have noticed. One of the ways I have done this is by creating more often. It calms me and takes my mind off an incredibly stressful life situation our family is currently experiencing. Fall/Winder is very busy for our family – mixed in with the regular holidays are my wedding anniversary and both of my daughters’ birthdays. This year will be especially difficult for us financially. I would like to take this class because I know I will need all the help I can get to make it through the final months of this year. Thank you for the opportunity to win a spot in the Soul Comfort class!!
When I think of Soul Comfort, I realize that it has only been in terms of something that someone else needed and it was my responsibility and job to provide it to them personally and in my career. As an Oncology Nurse I have always seen the need to provide to my patients and families comfort in the most devastating times of their diagnosis, treatment and other heartbreaking times they struggle with. In my personal life, I struggle with having an aging mother who worked her entire life for her children only to lose most of them. Being single, I fill in the void for her as much as possible.
Now I have recently lost my job of 20 years and I feel so lost…so broken and unsure of what to do.
With the help of very special friends in my life and special Brave Girl Sisters I have realized that what I really need is Soul Comfort of my own. I have given enough and fed enough souls for now without having my soul fed.
You can only give what you have.
It is the time right now for me to feed my soul before I can journey on to what it is meant for me next. Thank you for providing this opportunity to those that need it most….good luck Braves and hope to meet you in Soul Comfort. Denise
When I think of Soul Comfort, I think I mindfulness, a pause to center and balance and be aware of the present moment. This class seems like a great opportunity to do just that. To come home to oneself. Thanks for the chance to win..
For me, soul comfort is an opportunity to nourish and nurture the core of who I am and what I am to others, I am mother, wife, friend, daughter, sister….. In many if these role my job is to nurture and support others. As much as it is a blessing to be everything to everyone, it is very easy to lose who you are to yourself. I turn to comfort foods and items (I.e. a warm fuzzy bathrobe), I look for comfort in the arms of my partner and friends, in the security that my children are safely tucked in at night, but it is harder to turn to what truly feeds my soul…. Creativity, art, time to explore who I am irrespective of the other influences in my life. The opportunity to participate in the soul comfort e class will enable me to put myself first, if even for a little while. It offers the opportunity to be disciplined and inspired in the feeding of my creative spirit, who to me is truly the essence of who I am. Thank you for this opportunity.
I think of a peace that passes understanding.
I have always naturally felt the need to take care of my family first. I was an only child, took care of my parents as they aged, took care of my 6 children as a single parent. Taking care of myself is very foreign concept to me, even now as a senior person. Life is chaotic, even now, having peace and calm in my life would be a Comfort to my Soul. I think this holiday season will be no different unless I learn a way to simplify and create calm in my life.
Thank you for this opportunity!
soul comfort… a deep, warm, cozy peace that comes upon you no matter what else is going on in your life and the One that provides that comfort. sounds like a wonderful class!
I think of relaxing and allowing myself to spend time with my inner thoughts and remembering who I am outside of all my titles: mom, wife, sister, daughter, teacher, etc.
To me Soul Comfort is being at peace with myself in spite of my circumstances. It means a quiet morning curled up on a comfy couch with a good book and a cup of hot chocolate.
To me….soul comfort would be creating a spot of peace within that I can stop and visit as often as I need to adjust my frame of mind.
When I hear the words, soul comfort, I think of tension, anger, and stress melting away into a state of pure bliss and peacefulness, wrapped up in a great big hug of forgiving love. In a world where there is so much hurt, and pain, and stress, and life gets unintentionally detoured into the fast lane, it’s important to know how to slow down and take time out to bring comfort to one’s soul.
Wow! Thank you for this chance to win an Awesome experience! I am so tired. Just exhausted. Emotionally spent. I really really need this class. I feel like I am “stuck” and don’t have a way out! Please …. I will be FOREVER grateful! Thank you,
Stephanie
