/ The Rise of Photography and Mindfulness

 

In an era dominated by visual storytelling and constant digital connection, photography, and moving images have evolved into the primary means of self-expression for the masses.  Simultaneously, pursuing mindfulness and meditation has transcended its niche status, becoming a mainstream practice embraced for its holistic benefits. 

We Are Journey brings photography and mindfulness together as a highly effective means of self-discovery and personal growth. By engaging the process of photography with intention and awareness as both observer and creator, we gain the ability to fuse our internal and external worlds and shatter old patterns with feelings of wonder, awe, and gratitude, all while tapping into and unlocking our vast well of creativity, wisdom, and intuition.

What if your experience of presence was infinite rather than fleeting?

What if you could tap into a well of unlimited creativity?

What if you felt connection to something infinitely larger than yourself?

What if meditation didn't require sitting still?

If your experience of presence was infinite rather than fleeting, this would be a state of pure consciousness, where every moment is experienced fully and completely without the burdens of past regrets or future anxieties.

 

An unlimited source of creativity would mean a boundless wellspring of ideas, innovation, and artistic expression. There would be no constraints on imagination, and every concept, no matter how unconventional, could be realized.

 

Feeling complete connection to something infinitely larger than oneself implies a sense of oneness. The boundaries between the individual and the external world would dissolve, creating a profound sense of belonging. This connection would be a source of immense peace, purpose, confidence, and creativity, fostering a deep respect for all life and a desire to contribute positively to the world.

 

If all were so, who would you be? 

Hint, hint . . . You would be You! A fearless explorer and creator constantly pushing the boundaries of your potential, feeling a profound sense of peace, joy, and fulfillment. 

Your time is now! 

We Are Journey.
