Capturing Stillness: Mindful Moments Through the Lens
"The creative process, like a spiritual journey, is intuitive, non-linear, and experiential. It points us toward our essential nature, which is a reflection of the boundless creativity of the universe."

HOW TO LISTEN TO
YOUR INNER LANDSCAPE
The modern world can be a noisy, hectic place...
It can be difficult to slow down without feeling guilty or lazy
However... to allow yourself to slow down every once in a while is a necessary
part of self care, enabling you to relax, reflect and recharge.
Relax: Allowing yourself to relax is an important part of slowing down, reducing the stress response, enabling a clearer mind, improving overall mood.
Reflect: Reflection and contemplation of one's life can help set manageable goals, make plans, figure out what is and isn't important , change direction if it feels right to do so, listening to our bodies.
Recharge: Being mentally and physically rested & recharged enables you to take on any
challenges life may present as the best most capable version of yourself without reacting, but responding.
Next time you find yourself rushing around, pause for a moment...
Notice your feet, your breath, the eyelids blinking and the sounds around you
Your future self will thank you.
