In this episode of Living Liminal, host Nico and colleague Sara Rothwell delve into the concept of liminality and threshold spaces. They discuss the importance of embracing chaos and absurdity, the roles of creativity and porosity in human life, and detail their forthcoming in-person workshop, 'Smoke and Mirrors: Undefining Perceptual Reality,' in Santa Fe, New Mexico. The conversation touches on the intersection of spiritual practices and the arts as a means of navigating and integrating the manifold challenges and beauties of life.
