Sumi Dishes on Korean Food and Being Satisfied on Long Beach Island
Bridge to Being
Today’s episode is going to be a little unconventional, kind of like our Lobsterbird. We are going to be getting a bit quantum in this episode with her mother, Sumi, who is also a known food psychic. Modern Magic has brought Sophia back to her childhood home on Long Beach Island, where Sumi shakes a ham at her and answers deep questions about banchan (Korean tiny side dishes), fortune, and how our quality of life might be tied to the quality of tradition and culinary provision from the land. Your Creative Sparks: KOREAN FOOD is very tied to the LAND and to the SEASONS. GOOD FOOD is...

The Trauma of False Reality
Bridge to Being

Fly away with Lobsterbird as she shares her experience in a tender place, an *inverse conscious unconscious creation* in which her worst nightmare serves to heal her worst nightmare.

The Looking Glass of Your Love Frequency with Julie Pierce in Ireland
Bridge to Being
Lobsterbird returns to us from the rolling land, a myriad of greens and wildflowers, so many fields that just ARE. They aren't getting mowed, and they are perfectly perfect anyway. The animals are keeping them. Grasses are growing where they need to grow. The flowers are reaching up. With Julie Pierce, we reflect on our truth and being-ness - one can only behold that which is within. When we look through this mirror with radical acceptance and love, we enter a portal that beams with our radiant heart. Your Creative Sparks: The origin of the YOUME TREE. I see you, and therefore I can see me....

The Art of Yoni Dancing with Lyoni Fisher in Bali
Bridge to Being
Today we are transmitting from the beautiful, sensual land of Bali in Indonesia, introducing *Yoni Dancer* fresh from the Bali Pilgrimage.

She also discovered a new language of energy, one that is felt in the body and personified in the dance.

#49 Audioblog Storytime!, Part 3: Where the Heart Is
Bridge to Being
This hero’s global journey leads her Home. But where is Home? Home is a place where we build our world with our breath, letting the walls be an air of spaciousness and freedom for all beings, including animal beings, plant beings and human beings. We can be at home amid the symphony of crickets, cicada and geckos, under the pitter patter of rain on a thatched roof. “I can find Home where I am - Where the Heart is.

#48 Audioblog Storytime!, Part 2: The Great Lobster Rescue Begins!

As Part Two of this story unfolds, we discover the fantastical how this Lobsterbird landed on her spiritual path. On the heels of completing the Shikoku Pilgrimage, and having read “A Tale for the Time Being” by Ruth Ozeki, Sophia returned to a life that was fundamentally and dramatically changed.

#47 Audioblog Storytime!, Part 1: The Great Lobster Rescue Back Story
Bridge to Being
The more we tell our stories, the further they move from the truth. Thankfully, this story was recorded close to the truth in a blog written back in 2015, after Lobsterbird returned from her first pilgrimage in Shikoku, Japan. Her entire reality was shattered and shifted. She returned home completely rudderless, left out in the spaciousness to rediscover what the world really is - and what our path is, and how to find it. This episode was recorded Live in Bali as part of a deep investigation of HOME.

Your Travelogue
- Where do clouds come from? Everyday magic. Just because you can figure it out with some scientific theory does not make it any less cool. [5:11]
- On the other hand, we can become utterly convinced over something that is completely delusional. [12:50]
- More about the paradox of Pat. Firefighter. Transportation engineer. Adding Buddhist practice to conflict management to bring deeper understanding of people and their emotional turmoil. [21:48]
- The greatest source of conflict is unfulfilled expectations. The remedy for that is looking within, because you can’t control the outside world. [26:01]
- Practicum! If you get angry, disappointed, or hurt… Look at what is behind the emotion. Rather than blaming, stop and ask yourself: What expectation did I have of the other person that was violated? [31:04]
