Social Creative Conversations

Conversation is the thread that helps tether and inspire relationships. It doesn’t have to be fancy or grand; but, it does need to be real. Inspiring conversation often comes from the ordinary moments in life when stories are shared and hearts are laid bare. Join Amy Vallejo, founder & co-collaborator of Social Creative Workshops, as she chats to extraordinary women sharing, teaching, and learning through the conversations we have. This podcast is for all the makers; artisan makers, business makers, movement makers, homemakers, mess makers, idea makers. What we do is a contributing portion of who we are, but there is so much to all of us, isn't there? If you are like me, the stories are gold and connect us so much deeper. WE ALL HAVE SOMETHING TO TEACH, WE ALL HAVE SOMETHING TO LEARN. Welcome to our conversation, we’re glad you’re here!

Social Creative Conversations

Body, Mind, Spirit, Naked Spa

Is that right?
Yep.

This is another wave of my personal reflection story, as I figured out the "mind, body, spirit" relationship layers of pain and beauty.

And, yes, Naked Spa-which was a part of my brave therapy to feeling confident in my own skin during a time of extreme self consciousness-especially around the people who knew me the most.

In this episode I speak about the investigative work I did surrounding mindset, body image, self esteem, and emotional behavior. They are all deeply connected. As I healed, I processed and learned. I found "buoys" to help me survive, let go of things that didn't suit me and battled against self sabotage and "lies of attack".

I set up the framework of several conversations to come, which dive deeper into mindset, body positivity, self esteem, and the reciprocity of internal/external beauty.

I speak to the real life example of going to Olympus Spa, a Korean spa, where being naked is a natural part of the therapeutic experience. It can be a very freeing experience, but also a very intimidating one-especially if you are already feeling insecure in your own skin. Ultimately, this is a place where all bodies are admired equally-celebrating each scar, shape, size, or life stage. There is a sense of unity and ease; which makes exposing your truth in the form of nakedness all worth the scary dis-robing.
