Write a Book That Changes Lives

And when you open your eyes, despite the fact that you will see that you are not on a fabulous island, but in your apartment, your brain will still feel euphoria from your fantasy for some time and you will be in high spirits for some time. .

If you regularly imagine yourself in inspiring situations, how to train your brain, then over time it will be easier and easier for you to switch from experiences and difficulties to an inspiring mood.

What if you don’t quite like how you feel or how others perceive you? How to be in such situations?

I have had many situations in my life when I gave up and thought that I no longer had the strength to move forward, but even in the most hopeless situation there was a way out.

About 8 years ago, I had a period of difficult relationships with myself and the world around me. I was a single mother of a seven-year-old girl, I worked in real estate, in which earnings were very irregular, and at some point I became so sad that I wanted to feel sorry for myself, sit down to cry, find some kind of vest and express everything that I think about this unfair world. I just wanted to get drunk or even die in the end.

But I decided to go the other way.

Since my friend was just mastering a new type of activity – photography, we agreed that I could work as a training model for her. And I needed to unwind a little and she needed ti try something new. And we did it!

That photo session changed a lot in my life.

Instead of a pitiful, insignificant person with a bunch of complexes and failures, a single mother with an eternal lack of money, a fatal amazing, strong beautiful woman looked at me, who knows what she wants and feels her strength and her power. A person who has a mission and purpose in life.

It was from this photo shoot that I began my journey to my real self. Free, bold, improvising with life and one that walks through life with its head held high. And even if she falls, she still gets up and goes on. Because movement is life. And the movement towards the goal, during which you do not get hung up on the result, but enjoy the process, this is a bright and interesting life, filled with meaning.

Therefore, I know firsthand how one photo session can change life, the attitude towards it and towards my real self.

And when you change your attitude towards yourself, the attitude of people around you changes. I began to have clients of a different level and with different values, those who are willing to pay for my work, who appreciate me and with whom we worked for many years after all, until I leave for the USA.

Many years after this photo session, when I entered the consulting profession of a Creative States Coach, I analyzed what was the impetus for change in my life. And I remembered that I really wanted to see myself differently, through the eyes of a photographer, a person who is not familiar with my inner experiences and complexes, who simply works with external factors and creates an illusion or vice versa shows you for yourself. Because you can’t see yourself in such way untill somebody will show you another way. And then I looked at myself through the eyes of another person and I liked what I saw.

Thus, I turned on the activation of my inner strength. And from this my path of creative development and self-expression began in different directions.

The practice of a photo session that will help you in a difficult period of your life:

I am fond of taking pictures very much. I take pictures a lot of everything that I see around. I like emotional photos very much, when happy people look at me from the pictures and looking at these pictures I understand how beautiful life is.

But more than that, I love to be a model of photo art projects taking pictures in different images and evotional states. Too bad this doesn’t happen as often as I would like.

But what I noticed – when you see yourself in other images that are not characteristic of you, you seem to reincarnate into other characters, as if you put on a mask of another personality and grow together with it, then you become one. First on the picture, than in mind, in te end in reality.

So this idea came to my mind – to create phototherapy sessions.

These sessions are consists ofn two parts.

Part 1 – unpacking your personality.

A session during which, in dialogue, we are looking for that part that you want to manifest, the essence or identity that you want to release. Maybe you want it to manidest more or maybe you want it to stop bothering you and say goodbye to it.

To do this, we first need to find out what kind of identity we will show during the photo shoot.

Part 2 – the actual photo shoot.

During it we will transfer your inner experiences from the inside to an external medium in the form of a photograph. And you will see that part of yourself that was hiding in you and that you could not get out of yourself.

Taking this photo is not the end goal. This is fust the starting point for the next stage of work on yourself.

You don’t have to be the perfect model for this photo shoot. It doesn’t matter to you whether others will like this photo, especially if you want to say goodbye to some of your negative entities in your opinion.

In this process, it is important how honest you are with yourself. And how much it will help you look at yourself from a different perspective. Which is difficult to see from the inside without outside help.

This is what I am for. If you are not ready to go to a phototherapy session with a specialist, you may arrange a session for yourself at home as well. Just close your eyes, think about which of your subpersonalities you want to manifest into this world and act! 

The unique potential of phototherapy.

Photography is the most accessible art form in the modern world. If you have a smartphone, you can already arrange psychoanalysis sessions and experiment with images endlessly – there are various masks on tik tok  or instagram or other mobile apps. You can record a video as a man, even if you are a woman and vice versa, you can use the image of a hare or other character or even a famous person. There are absolutely no limits to your imagination.

You may not understand anything about the art of photography or have technical knowledge about photography, but you can still take whatever photos you want with your smartphone. Including yourself in various forms.

And phototherapy can also help you in those moments when you are in a difficult emotional state or in a state of depression.

You have probably heard about art therapy sessions, when you can get yourself out of a negative state through creativity. But, as a rule, in this state it’s hard to do something with your hands or you don’t have the strength to go to the store for pencils or paints, and sometimes it’s hard to go to another room. A smartphone is always at hand.

Try the next time you’re in a bad mood just open the camera and just make faces at the phone, smile, laugh, take a few pictures where you smile, even if this smile at the beginning of the process is not entirely sincere. Start and smile at your phone. And when you feel that the smile is already turning into a sincere state, take a few pictures and smile back at them. You will feel how life is getting better.

When I photograph people and see how their condition changes, I understand that life is beautiful and amazing. You just have to let it be.
