Liz Clark
I learned to sail at seven years old in San Diego, California on a little red sailing dinghy. At ten, I completed a 5,000-mile, 6-month cruise in Mexico with my family on our sailboat, The Endless Summer, experiencing a different culture, the freedom and beauty of sea travel, and opening my mind to horizons beyond my hometown reality. I credit the origin of my environmental concern to my exposure to the contrasting landscapes of grave pollution and radical natural beauty in Mexico.

As you’re falling asleep, you pass through the hallucinatory, kaleidoscopic state of hypnagogia. As you wake, you experience the soft, drifty state of hypnopompia. In these two states, which together make up liminal dreaming, you fall into the dream realm of the unconscious but you retain enough waking consciousness to know where you are, and to observe what’s happening. We all pass through a limited number of EEG states every day. Liminal dream states are among them. We all experience liminal dreaming.
