Love the You you look at

A workshop exploring self-image through the Felt Sense and Therapeutic Photography

Therapeutic Photography is the structured use of images with an intended outcome (eg empowerment, personal growth, self-efficacy etc) and was pioneered for modern psychiatry in the 1970's by Judy Weiser. The Felt Sense is our holistic embodied response to any situation (the meaning underneath our feelings, the not-knowing, the stuff we don't yet have words for), and a portal to our own truth and understanding. It's hugely important for wellbeing and self-understanding, and has been described as, 'on the edge of our evolution', by Simon McKibbin

Therapeutic Photography coupled with the Felt Sense, forms a powerful approach to mental growth and healing, and this workshop focuses on a reflective path to personal insight and the opportunity to know yourself in a new way. Using images of yourself, you'll gain a compassionate and loving perspective of where you're at, what you need and what might change as a result of this insight. It's a tool for self-love like no other and it'll change the way you look at yourself forever.

You will need to bring a journal and pen, a photograph of yourself as a child and a recent photo of yourself. Please have them printed out or on a separate device from where you'll attend the zoom session.
