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 highly symbolic of a GOOD LIFE.
• “I can’t BELIEVE in God if I can’t EAT.”
• UNRAVELING can lead to the GREATEST ADVENTURE of our lives.

Your Travelogue

• My first crazy unraveling brought me back to Long Beach Island on my very first accidental retreat. I got down on my hands and knees in the sand and snow, and I prayed to that ocean - and all kinds of magical things started to happen. [4:19]
• The upcoming Modern Magic documentary: If Anthony Bourdain's Parts Unknown had a baby with the film Baraka, who also somehow through this weird polyamorous relationship also had this baby with the Dark Crystal and also Queer Eye More than a Makeover. [9:56]
• What’s up with the many, many little side dishes with lots of different things in them? Do they mean something? [11:59]
• Scientists came together in 2015 to study Korea’s unique food culture, which is connected to its long agricultural history, which was intimately connected to the seasons and the rhythms of the earth. [21:42]
• Good food makes people feel abundant and satisfied. It is enjoyable and makes us feel like we have a good life. [30:02]
• When the quality of food goes down and the quality of tradition goes down, does the quality of human life go down? [33:47]
• We expect our whole lives to be satisfying. Whether we have good food or nothing to eat, we can accept what is and be satisfied. [37:09]
• Going to God’s house meant special food on Sunday. [40:59]
• What do you think is more important, eating food or believing in God? [47:26]
• When people come together and eat, is that a spiritual experience? [51:18]
• This ends Phase One of the Bridge to Being. Why we're ending, for how long, and how we can still be together. [55:35]

✨UPCOMING OPPORTUNITIES✨

The Co-Creation Project is our brand new jam! and we are inviting a small group of like-spirited beings to join.

what the world needs right now are Light Warriors who are willing to go deep—to co-create from the quantum field of all potential and fully embody that energy here on earth. it’s not enough to say we’re spiritual, to spout off wisdom and/or meditate in a void. this world needs us to bring all this energy into a state of complete beingness, compassion, and interconnectedness with life, and see what new earth emerges from that kind of collaboration.

we gotta walk our talk. it takes community willing to do the work together to learn to be together in new ways. we must become attuned to the earth and larger ecosystem—physically, intuitively, emotionally, and analytically—to train and develop this kind of intelligence.

this is full-on integration and birthing new ways of being. in The Co-Creation Project, we'll come together as a community, to unleash our creative power and tap into a new realm of collective inspired action. the result will be a social action art project that will add fire to all your other endeavors and ignite possibilities for your life that you’ve dreamt of.

this next journey is going to be wild. it will be deeply healing and transformative. it will be the most rewarding work we can do.

want to Co-Create together? we can do it from anywhere on the planet and all you need is an open heart. if you feel those spirit tingles, inquire: [e-mail]

we’ll see what it really means to BE together. from there, a new earth will arise. ✨

+++/or: want Lobsterbird to be your personal healer in 2020? what can't we heal together? (hint: nothing.) there’s one 1:1 spot open and it includes a personalized pilgrimage. woot! email for deetz:
