- The idea that art-making and life-building are in a symbiotic relationship that fuels one another is the basis behind Art2Life. Other than personally experiencing art’s life-giving ability, I’ve never had any hard evidence to support this concept…until now. Meet Ivy Ross and Susan Magsamen. They've co-written an amazing and newly released book called Your Brain On Art that explains how our brains and bodies transform when we participate in the arts and how this knowledge can improve our health, enable us to flourish, and build stronger communities. They are both artists, creatives, visionaries, explorers, and experts in their respective fields, with so much insight into how art improves humanity. Join us for a fascinating journey into Neuroaesthetics and the science behind everything I teach.

Wow😮 So beautiful so great to have this message about how our sensory system works. Very inspiring, insightful, scientific and interesting. Thank You for this information your brilliant mindset research and creativity. Love to all Three of you. 🎉🎉🎉🎉
OMG. This interview was so life affirming for me. I cried half way through and I feel teary as I write and yes there are no words for why. I have an idea but words seem to trivialise the feeling and emotion. I have been a yoga teacher for many years so it staggers me when science can confirm what the ancient mystics knew and passed down to us today. The importance of stilling the mind, befriending the mind and allowing whatever comes up to have permission to be seen and felt and expressed. And expressed in a way that benefits your own self and therefore rippling out to be of benefit to humanity. This book will be my next purchase. Congratulations to Susan and Ivy and Nick!!! Nick you have your enormous contribution to artists all around the world affirmed in so many ways by this conversation. I hope and wish for you that you have a warm glow around your heart. Always. Thank you. ❤️😍🙏
Beautiful podcast.
Thank you.
Super interview and discussion! Fascinating research. Thanks to you all. Art changes everything. ❤
So good!!!! Exactly! Thank you Nick, Susan, and Ivy!
Wow, amazing discussion.
I've bought the book!!
Great conversation! My own experience has been the guiding force for me for a long time, and I’m thrilled that the empirical evidence is finally making itself known so emphatically for those that need convincing. Art making has saved me on a regular basis, and is such an untapped resource for everyone in every area and circumstance of life. Thanks to all three of you pioneers in this life-saving and life-enhancing field. 🙏❤️
EXCITING AND EXCELLENT
i love this. thank you so much for the confirmation
This is a wonderful interview, absolutely fascinating!! Thank you so much for making this, I'm going to share it everywhere I can 😊
Love, peace and happiness are our nature. Art is an outpouring of love, an overflow. Thank you so much this amazing interview and for the book! Its the book I’ve been waiting for ❤🙏🏼
Thank you so much for this video! It’s very inspiring and helpful.
And as I am from Amsterdam, Netherlands, I love the tulips on the table 🌷💕🌷
As an Art Therapist and having focused my research into the power of Creativity over the last several years, this is a really exciting book. It looks like it’s unique in the way it appears to fuse the lived experience of making and looking at art with the science and neurobiology behind making of art and transference of it, to provide new ways to examine and describe it. I’m really looking forward to reading it.
37:56 I had only one professor in college who talked about "surprise." When we would do our critiques he would always ask, "Where is the surprise, in this piece?" It's like the art of comedy too, the biggest laughs come from the biggest surprises.
Can't wait to read this book! Impeccable timing that I should choose to watch one of Nick's video's this evening - a direct response to the energy I am sending out. As a student in their master studies for art therapy counseling I appreciate the connection to science backed evidence for the healing properties that art can bring to all. I aspire to bring art to communities effected by disaster, and had not considered how it could also benefit first responders. I also wanted to comment on the refrigerator discussion. A few years ago, I happened to enter an art school located in downtown San Antonio where in the lobby there was a permanent installation of the interior of student's refrigerators which had been enlarged for display. I was fascinated by this concept and made time to observe them all feeling "moved" to study each one! Refrigerators! Somehow the experience left an imprint because I often think about was an interesting body of work it was. 😄
What a meaningful helpful educational conversation. So inspirational to think about artmaking in this way. I'll listen more than once. And buy the book. Thank you all.
Very productive and inspiring interview. Thank you very much.
Amazing is too small of a word to describe this episode. Wow,! no words to express this.
Love and Bliss are out Nature. That's why. It's our ground state. We just have to uncover it.
I am a few pages into the book having pre-ordered on the big A. Just brilliant and vital. Thank you for sharing this.
I am an artist specialised in painting, this helped me to rebalance my inner self however, sometimes it was the subliminal message revealed.
A wonderful interview and dialogue. Thank you!
Art is tremendous therapy for me!!!
That was a great interview; i was so intrigued by all the information. Thanks so much for making this available and i need to go order the book my heart is very full thanks again !
Thank you for this interview! The ideas communicated made a bunch of lightbulbs go off for me. And I'm excited to share this with my friends and colleagues.
Great read! Everyone needs to read it asap
This is so interesting!! I love Neurographic Art.
Hi again. For whatever it is worth: The IG handle for the authors does not work. Instead, if copy pasted, it will go to the website. However, the website is designed in a way that it caused me instant dizziness and nausea. The way it moves made me seasick. Sorry. Love you guys and this interview, and will buy the book because it speaks Truth. But please redesign the website, and consider fixing the IG link! Thanks so much guys!!
Love is state of harmony. Whoever or whatever brings you to that state, you’re in love with.
So amazining! My book is on the way!
White as a color of mourning. When I heard that, I thought it must tie into Eastern cultural intentions the departed being ascends to a higher state of awareness and a brighter future. When I looked it up, that is indeed what it implies. So, your preference for so much white space in your work actually has quite a positive spiritual significance.
Love the interview, what is deep in you to bring your art to make it successful or have the viewer to be engage, thanks.
I think love is your soul speaking. The thing that we are made with. What do you think. It’s the spiritual side of science that we can’t measure. 54:53
How art makes you happier and healthier?
Art in any form, whether while creating or observing, reduces the stress hormone called cortisol. It also releases the feel-good hormones called endorphins which help you combat stress and pain. By letting you enjoy a sense of fulfillment, it transforms you into a more positive, well-rounded human being.

With the best will in the world, I cannot listen to this as anything other than explaining that making art is for certain special people who can do certain special things.
I don't want to believe that.
