07. Stagnancy, Self-Betrayal and Self-Kindness with David Silverberg

Self-betrayal happens when we forget self-kindness. Through this week's conversation, we discuss how we find beauty in the creative process through our cycles of stagnancy and stillness. We see this beauty mirrored in the way the earth displays her magic. She accepts that somethings must end for others to begin. She accepts the violence and the gentleness of her own ecology. She accepts her own creative process.

Like Mama Gaia, I think we get to be a creative process. We get to fold and unfold. We get to find peace in our instincts and desires. We get to accept our life / death cycles and the violence and gentleness of our own creative ecology. We get to ask questions like,

"What will I grieve? What will I release today?"

And questions like,

"What will I birth? What will I create today?"

We are folding and unfolding. We are making and unmaking. This is the wonder of the creative process and how our souls long to be in the world.

In this season, David is manifesting as an artist, musician, listener, self love guide and essence holder for the ecosystem here at Brave School. You can find him on Instagram as @dave.dune.
