A Creative Guide to Exploring Your Life brims with imaginative exercises and examples that use the power of photography, art, and writing as tools for self-discovery. It provides clear and accessible guidance on how to explore different parts of your identity: take a photograph of yourself in a role you don’t typically play, draw a visual timeline of your life and consider its key turning points; explore your sense of place in history by writing about a major historical event that has changed your life. Exercises are accompanied by searching questions for self-reflection, and are complemented by examples of each exercise to provoke ideas and inspiration. Featuring additional guidance for teachers, counselors, and other professionals running the exercises in group settings, this book offers a dynamic and enjoyable way for you to explore different aspects of your life

Somewhere between a serious self-help manual and darn good fun, this intriguing book will inspire you think about who you are, your history, your relationships, your identity and your direction of travel in a totally original way.
On your own, with a partner, in a group or with a therapist you will understand how to use more than just the spoken word to discover, communicate and share.
Get going with photos and a sketchbook and other arts and craft materials found in most homes or offices with lots to be learned along the way.

Judy Weiser is a pioneer in Phototherapy. The book is analysing the 5 techniques of phototherapy using case studies and Weiser’s personal life experience. I will definitely use it as a reference in my own photography workshops even though I am not a therapist.
