Photography for the Inner Me: I Can See Clearly Now
Explore how you see the world. Learn that the lens points both directions. As we look out into the world, we are looking into ourselves. Combine improving your photographic skills with learning about and nourishing your inner me. In some instances, we blend writing with photography to add depth to the understanding our inner life being revealed through image. When we see clearly, our lives are more satisfying. How though do we learn to “see clearly?”
Engage in short, fun assignments that invite your eye to learn to focus. Enjoy how perspective can deepen with a camera in your hand. Learn how the principles of photography can help you “see” your life in a different light. Your “eye” can help you enjoy your inner “I”.

TEA FOR THE INNER ME
It is not easy to take time for tea, to sit down with one’s self. To take the extra moments to steep tea, perhaps to use loose tea, to turn off the radio or television, to sit quietly. To pose questions to one’s self.
It is even more of a commitment to explore our world with our pen. Whether you are young or old, whoever you are, we hope you will take time to relax in the moment while peacefully reflecting on the challenges and goodness of life.
TEA FOR THE INNER ME is an enjoyable 2.5 hours during which you are introduced to blending the ritual of tea and the practice journaling as a way of finding that quiet and wise place within yourself. You don’t need to love tea or be enthusiastic about writing. This guided experience includes actual tea and healthy goodies, an introduction to therapeutic writing, and opportunity to experience written reflection about your life. Take home new insights, new skills, and the book Tea for the Inner Me along with its accompanying journal. The workshop is appropriate for a home or work setting.
Ask your friends, staff, or colleagues to come to a Tea for the Inner Me event at your home, at your office, or in a special location of your choice.
Mental health advocate Krishna Gupta of Rohit Construction has offered to partially sponsor Tea for the Inner Me for qualifying groups and organizations.
“Tea for the Inner Me has changed my entire life. Taking moments of reflection for myself while sipping tea and journalling, has helped me to better understand myself and others. This has led me to a happier life.” ~ Krishna Gupta
