Ritual design

Rituals create an embodied space in time honoring a significant moment. Marking a loss, a transition, or a new beginning, rituals have the power to bring meaning, presence and a sense of being held.

I am open to design, or co-create, rituals for individuals, groups or events. For those who want to bring more ritual into their own life or practice, I offer guidance in designing your own.

In addition to designing rituals, I facilitate grief circles: gatherings that weave together ritual and reflection to create space for grief, connection and meaning-making. See agenda.
