Letting ourselves be seen
sharinakagawa:
Embody confidence. Power pose - check. Eye contact - check. Strong lines leading right to me - check. Feeling good pretty confident - check.
sharinakagawa:
Being the focus. I like dramatic landscapes, so I really tried to make myself the subject of this one.
sharinakagawa:
Inviting more of you into the frame - feel the most like myself when I am walking through the rainy rain forest. I also do love a good power pose.
sharinakagawa:
Exploring neutrality I didn't expect this one to be quite so silhouetted but that's how it turned out and I really like it.
sharinakagawa:
Reclaiming proof I used to tell myself that I would climb the Mt when I was in shape. Then I realized I would only get in shape if I climbed the Mt.
sharinakagawa:
Recognizing Ourselves. I almost deleted this one because I didn't like my thighs. But fuck it... they are strong enough to get me up this mountain, they can be in this photo.
sharinakagawa:
Self Care. For whatever we lose (Like a you or a me.) It's always our self we find In the sea. e. e. cummings
sharinakagawa:
Slice of life - one from the weekend and one from today at work.
sharinakagawa:
Listening to your voice. The bit about my hands stood out. They are the most expressive part of me when I dance. And they command my camera as I shoot. And these are the two places where I feel most like me.
sharinakagawa:
Inviting in the questions. Why do I have such a love hate relationship with my belly. Clothed I always try to hide it, suck it in. But then I dance with it showing.
sharinakagawa:
Walking away from old stories. Every time I climbed this mt (7 times since the start of sept) I walk away from the story that I can't do it up til I'm fit enough. I told myself that for years but turns out, I can climb it. And I will do the Grouse Grind n
sharinakagawa:
Day 2- grounding. I fully admit that I tend to go for the dramatic shot where I am small in the photo.
sharinakagawa:
Embody - begin with breath Funny how things align. My health group is doing a meditation challenge this month so the minute I saw begin with breath in the email I knew what my selfie would be.
sharinakagawa:
Dressing with intention. I was going to just wear jeans but after reading Vivienne's prompt this morning, I put on my favourite skirt. Fabulous skirt fabulous day.
sharinakagawa:
Clothes as self care. Interestingly, I pulled these two cards this morning and then read about self care. I think the universe is trying to tell me something. So I put on my nice skin cream that I made myself and the earrings I bought in Greece that make
sharinakagawa:
Dressing in alignment. I usually wear black yoga pants to workout but my sister bought me these and I really love them.
sharinakagawa:
Our Inner Beloved- my inner beloved loves red and sapphires.
sharinakagawa:
Feeling seen by ourselves. I always feel like taking a selfie when engaged in an activity. Tonight was a bike ride with thee hubby and dog and cat.
sharinakagawa:
Looking inward. Finally started the new course. Better late than never.
sharinakagawa:
Reflections throughout our day. At the hotel Grand pacific photographing an esl program's graduation... doing my thing. This room was filled with people and I still felt ok taking this. Progress.
sharinakagawa:
Shifting our focus. Sometimes I get so forward focused that I forget my back needs love.
sharinakagawa:
Seeing ourselves reflected. I'm really digging black and white for this class. I can see my story more clearly. I really think my fur babies see me more clearly than I do.
sharinakagawa:
Getting grounded. My inclination is to take all these in my bathroom so I'm trying to push myself. Eyes closed on the beach this morning.
sharinakagawa:
Framing ourselves. I saw this in the rear view mirror this morning taking the dog to the dog park. She's poking out behind me.
sharinakagawa:
Connecting with ourselves in the mirror. I'm having issues with perfection again. I've taken this one multiple times but keep scrapping it because it's not perfect. Here's to letting go and posting.
sharinakagawa:
Leaving yourself a love note. or 4. The one on the post it (from my first be your own Beloved class) mirror doesn't equal worth. Positivity is my word of the year.
sharinakagawa:
Getting on the same team. I had a harder time with today. Maybe it's the poor light in my bathroom or maybe I just didn't get quality sleep last night but all I could see when I tried to put my face close was the bags under my eyes. Then I tried this and
sharinakagawa:
Meetings ourselves in the mirror with playfulness. Apparently my mirror self is a gangsta.
sharinakagawa:
A little puppy love early on a Sat morning.
