Re-energize your human-soul connection.
“An important part of human hygiene has always been the practice of listening to the language of our soul and sharing its message with others.”
~ Alexander Booth (Founder)
Since time immemorial, human beings have gathered around the camp-fire to share their dreams and visions with each other, creating inner and outer coherence and meaning.
Unfortunately, this essential part of human health is being drowned out in our ever-quickening society.
Downtime, rest and sleep are “ecosystems” in which our soul-life and consciousness meet. These meeting grounds are threatened by information overload, societal pressure, “hustle mentality,” and the overuse of technology.
Our heart-body-mind-soul connection (and the mythopoetic expression thereof) is essential for human thriving. Luckily, we don’t have to abandon our beloved technology in order to get this core need met.
The CoSymbolic app offers a digital mythopoetic ecosystem for soulful nourishment.

Do I have to “know how to draw”?
In short, NO! This is not about “drawing” in the usual sense of aesthetics or egoic storytelling. In fact, it’s the opposite! Confidence and prior artistic experience can actually get in the way of receiving subtle poetic information.
The CoSymbolic app shows you how to use your self-created symbolic drawing as your “conduit” to receive the emerging symbolic messages of your soul - sort of like your dreams at night.
By maintaining a state of curiosity and receptivity as your soul’s symbolic language emerges from the chaos of the drawing canvas, new insights and meanings spontaneously constellate in your awareness. This is your “intuitive knowing” at work!
“The poetic language of the soul is unique and personal to each of us. It’s difficult to explain how it works. Sometimes it’s best to just try it out.”
~ Tyler White (Co-Founder)
How do I use the app?
It’s simple and easy to get started.
1) Relax, release expectations, and postpone judgement.
2) Draw, scribble, swipe, fill-in, etc while observing the canvas.
3) Notice what comes up for you (feelings, sensations, thoughts, symbols, associations, etc).
4) Write and voice-record your insights and observations.
5) Optionally, share your mythopoetic discoveries and hold space for others’ shares.

“We don’t have to abandon our technology and the affordances of it. But we do need to reclaim and return to that which is essentially human about our nature and integrate that into our technology.”
~ Alex Booth (Founder)
Connect via informal, voice-based hang-outs to simply hold space.
Your drawings and reflections are private by default.
However, sharing with others can be immensely valuable and can enrich the soul life.
Simply being heard by another in a heart-centered, non-judgemental space is transformational and nourishing on its own (facilitation, structures, and models are not required).
A crystal ball for a digital age.
CoSymbolic merges ancient practices with modern technology.
Our carefully tuned drawing engine uses shades of black and white, blur, contrast and movement to create a specific atmosphere of chaos from which spontaneous meanings emerge in real-time.
