#3 @ForShaper on Developing Trust and Accessing Love
from Becoming Creature Hosted by Nick
In this episode of A Becoming Creature, Nick talks to Ray (@forshaper) about his non-profit Foretrek. We talk about comfort play, egregores, and the relationships between violence, intimacy, and rhythm. We also discuss God as a romantic experience, Sufism, global love, and so much more. To support Ray’s work please visit Foretrek. Learn more about the pioneer of comfort play, Kelly Quinnett. We also mention Sohbet, which is a good place to begin learning about Sufism. Thank you for listening.
