Play as Collective Liberation with Ryookyung Kim

On this episode, we’re chatting with Ryookyung Kim [https://partynoodles.life] of Party Noodles, on creating sacred space for play as medicine and a key ingredient for collective liberation.  Ryookyung (they/them) is an alkemist and co-creator of divine ceremonies, rituals, and celebrations. You can often find them in a transition of sorts, liminal spaces of (un)becoming, and supporting other humans whose very existence disrupts the status quo. They journey with folks in coming home to their Selves by way of remembrance and play—with disobedience, wonder, and unreasonable delight being some of the flavours they bring to their spaces.

Yin Water Rabbit Lunar Year: The path from fear to connection

In this episode, I share some reflections on this new lunar year, the Yin Water Rabbit year, along with a prompt for working with the emotion of Fear and the practice of Connection. Every emotion has something to teach us, and every emotion exists to guide us. So maybe this year isn’t about drowning in fear, but somehow learning how to respond to it?  Here are some reflections on what we can learn from: the Rabbit, Yin energy, and the element of Water this year.   Stay in touch with all KAI YIN Spells & Skills updates by signing up to my newsletter [https://kaiyinspellsandskills.com/]on my website, and following me on Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/kaiyinspellsandskills] and Facebook [https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100077056551363]!
