Being AUTHENTIC - learn to Love Ourselves find Self Worth

Thank you Justine & Michael 💚

You know that little voice in your head? Your inner critic. Constantly nagging, putting you down, wishing you were different, better, smarter, stronger - wishing you were anyone but who you are. We are our own worst enemies and harshest critics. We need to stop with the judgement, and instead learn to love every aspect of our being.

It is one of the greatest gifts we can give to ourselves, learning how to love ourselves. And what we will learn is that the amount of love, kindness and patience that we have for others is directly proportional to how much love, patience and kindness we have for ourselves… because we cannot give others what we ourselves do not have.

We need a revolution - and the revolution needs to start from our own self worth.

In collaboration with iNous, we recently released a beautiful deck of 52 cards - each card containing a quote from one of our films, paired with the activating visual muses of Lanon Prigge. The aim of this deck is to rekindle child-like curiosity and creativity, helping to navigate the shared waters of our human experience with grace and joy.

Who is Reflections of Life? We are Justine and Michael (previously known as Green Renaissance). We use our passion for filmmaking and our love of storytelling, to remind our audience of one simple truth – that we are all human. The more that we understand and believe in this interconnectedness, the more we will treat ourselves, one another, and planet earth with a greater sense of compassion.
