Lydia is a Unitarian Universalist minister, who was introduced to Interplay in 1996 through a course taught by Cynthia Winton-Henry at Pacific School of Religion. She's a recovering serious person, who uses the tools of Interplay to expand her playfulness and keep connected to her body wisdom. She is currently part of the Interplay CO Regional Team.

Linds West (pronouns they/them/theirs), Certified InterPlay Leader, loves to collaborate in offering customized InterPlay classes, workshops, and retreats for groups and individuals through their work with Gather The Wild Collective (https://gatherthewild.love). Gather weaves InterPlay forms together with mindfulness and nature-based practices. Linds’ work is an offering towards collective liberation and social change that brings joy together with grief. Linds also offers one on one consultations and nature-based accompaniment to folks seeking companionship for transitions and shared holding of life's deep questions. They bring their fourteen years as an educator, librarian, and facilitator together with their InterPlay and eco-chaplaincy training.

Lorena Gaibor was first introduced to Interplay during the early days of the pandemic in 2020 while being coached by Kaira Jewel Lingo. She was quickly enamored by the potential that the sneaky deep play offered for her healing journey and enrolled in the first BIPOC Life Practice Program. Since then she has continued her learning journey in Interplay most recently having completed the Secrets of Leading program. She is now overjoyed to be collaborating in the newly formed Colorado Regional Group of Interplayers. Together this group is bringing Interplay workshops to the Front Range. Lorena is also a recovering social worker and academic having taught MSW students for 7 years at the University of Denver. Lorena has been a longtime activist and advocate, dedicated to working with marginalized communities centered on topics of social, ecological, racial, and immigrant rights. Lorena is currently on a sabbatical centered on unlearning and re-membering as she sheds a lifetime of harmful dominant social norms internalized as a Latina/woman of color. In her healing journey, alongside Interplay, she also studies and practices Interrelational Focusing and other Somatic therapeutic practices that are helping her to reconnect to her embodied joyful experience. In addition to being a recovering academic, she has also embraced a post-activist inquiry into fugitivity, learning from visionary teachers such as Bayo Akomolafe and by participating in sensemaking processes with other alternative educators in a global alliance called Ecoversities. She’s also finishing up a two year Mindfulness Meditation Teacher’s Certification Program run by Tara Brach and Jack Kornfeld. She has begun to bring all that she has been unlearning and re-membering from this sabbatical period into her new role as a facilitator and witnesser of people’s healing/ re-membering processes.
