The Art Of Self
from Art Therapy Podcast · host Valentine Svihalek and Rebecca Brandmeier
In THE ART OF SELF, we turn the gaze inward toward self-love, vulnerability, and appreciation.So often, we care deeply for others, hold space, listen, and give, while quietly placing ourselves last. This episode invites to question what becomes possible when that same tenderness is finally offered to the self.Rooted in the understanding of Brene Brown that “vulnerability is not weakness, it’s our greatest measure of courage,” we explore how allowing ourselves to be seen, can open the door to deeper self-love. Through sensory actions, reflective moments, and creative exploration, we share tools that encourage slowing down and increasing self-consciousness. From meeting your own gaze in the mirror to creating art where imperfection softens into intimacy, this episode traces the movement from awareness to reflection — from negative loops turned into nourishing cycles of care.Photo credit Ivana Dostálová, Traces of The Unseen, 2025Music credit Andy Gallery@bellavalentinaart @[email protected] Connect Society z.s.Support the show
