  • Expanding our experience of the world with Blythe King

    This week we are back in the blanket fort exploring the power of the sense to help us expand our experience of the world and develop the definition we want for growing up. Today Lucie is in conversation with artist, educator and Zen Buddhist Blythe King. And across the episode they dive into the power of our senses, how we can tap into them more, what relooking at the familiar can offer us and how that helps us move into spaces of wondering and change. This is one huge permission slip to not know and just let yourself experience! I hope you enjoy.
