"Soulguard" is a Keyword that allows monsters to avoid leaving the field at the cost of discarding a card from the soul of that monster. Any monster can use Soulguard so long as it has the keyword, or a spell grants them the keyword.

Putting cards into a monster's soul requires a condition request it. For example, if the card's call cost tells you to put a card into the monster's soul. Some spells, like Ultimate Buddy! allow you to put the spell into your Buddy monster's soul.
