Mindfulness Photo Challenge

Each week, we’ll explore mindfulness through nature-based practices, and then we’ll each express our relationship to the concepts through a nature photograph.

Weekly Themes

Photo challenges are a fun and exciting way to hone your photography skills, learn new techniques, and find inspiration. At The Art of Mindfulness, we have fun with the concept of the “photo challenge” by exploring mindfulness concepts together, and then discovering our own individual voices for expressing what that concept means to each of us by making mindfulness inspired nature photos and sharing them with our community.

Week 18 Challenge Theme

“Small Joys”

April 29 – May 05, 2024

This week’s mindfulness challenge focuses on “Small Joys” Start by fully immersing yourself in the present, appreciating life’s small pleasures and subtle nuances. Reflect on the beauty found in everyday moments and tiny details often overlooked. Direct your lens to capture a small joy in the natural world around you – a dewdrop on a leaf, the intricate pattern of a spider’s web, or the delicate veins of a flower petal, for example. Embrace the simplicity and wonder of this moment, allowing the beauty to shine through your photograph. Invite the viewer to pause and find joy in the little details of life.

Mindfulness & Photography: Each week, we explore a different mindfulness theme, and participants are invited to experience these themes and express what the concept means to them by submitting a nature photograph to the challenge community. You’ll have access to the Participant Dashboard where you can log in to read the full details of each challenge.

Deepening Engagement: Members of this tier can log in to their Participant Dashboard to receive the “photo challenge” theme and weekly guided meditations customized to match the theme of the week. The audio recordings allow you to directly experience the weekly mindfulness theme in your meditation practice, and then produce your photograph for that week’s theme with a deeper and more personal understanding of each concept. New audio recordings every Monday!
