Private Ceremonies
Private Ceremonies are a beautiful way to commemorate, celebrate, and prepare for modern day rites of passage. These are specially tailored to you based on the occasion and your intention of having me there.
Ceremony is a way of stopping to smell the roses, or to drop deeper into the felt experience of what you may be moving through. I believe that it is important for us humans to slow down and celebrate, and even in the grief we can often find the pearl of wisdom that we are meant to take with us. I value the practice of honouring the joy just as much as the sorrow, and it is through my heart’s knowing that has led me to value each end of the human spectrum with reverence. What has always been true is that in each ending there is the thread of a beginning, as with each beginning there is a releasing of what was. You and I are not impenetrable to the cycles of life, to the dark and light, and it becomes our journey to allow the ebbs and flows.
There is never a reason not to have a ceremony, if you doubt that something is ‘worth it’ or ‘is allowed’ I invite you to send an inquiry below, and trust whatever has led you to reading this.
I want to acknowledge the bravery that is embodied by those willing to be witnessed in life’s transitions. Below are some examples of Group Ceremonies:
Retreats or Intentional Gatherings - Tailored to the group intention and will weave in the themes of your retreat or gathering
Group Mediation or Healing Circles - Facilitated for mindfulness and increased self awareness
Celebrating Birthdays, Anniversaries, Weddings, a New Familial Additions, or Achievements - Anchored in gratitude to soak in the present moment
Initiations from Maiden to Mother, from Bride to Wife (Bachelorette), From Groom to Husband (Bachelor) - Rites of passages for those who want to slow down and revel in the beauty of where you are and where you are headed
Team-Building Event - Hosted in a corporate setting as a team-building activity to foster trust and collaboration
Personal Growth and Development - Offered to integrate personal growth, self-exploration, and emotional release
Intimate Gathering - Held for a small group of friends or family seeking a shared and meaningful experience
What’s Included
Each ceremony is unique and is intuitively woven together from my own reading of the people, space, and intentions. We will most likely be working alongside the plant and medicine of Cacao. This is a non-psychotropic plant ally from the jungles of Guatemala, Peru, Ecuador and Costa Rice that will be prepared with delicious organic ingredients and served in ceremonial cups. Here is what else may be brought into our ceremony together:
Altar creation
Smoke cleansing
Opening of the Sacred Space with the Four Directions
Medicinal Music
Drumming, Chanting, Singing
Cacao or Tea Ceremony
Meditation
Embodiment or Somatic practices
Shamanic Journey
Elemental practices (planting seeds in the Earth, fire bowl ceremonies, water ceremonies)
Blessing of relationships, home, ceremonial tools, or manifestations
Closing of the Sacred Space
