Mindful Art: The Intersection of Astro, Photography, and Mental Health
Are you tired, burnt out, overwhelmed? In the digital age, there are constant distractions taking us out of the moment. My first time in Africa I was knocked into the moment, truly present for the first time in months. This mindful experience under the stars helped me recover from burnout and gave me outlets to maintain my mental health in the future: mindfulness and astrophotography ✨ This Storyboard provides art, resources, and astrophotography guides (including the upcoming Blue Supermoon).
My Journey with photography and mental health
(1) Begin, Again: a reminder that no matter where we are at in life, however burnt out or low, we can always take a deep breath and Begin Again. (2) Renewal: After beginning again, we are renewed by growing our passions. Each day is an opportunity to build on the day before, renewing our selves while building our dreams ✨
The second NFT collection by Wanderloots, Renewal is a story of self-improvement and rediscovery through consistent effort and attention.
