There are the obvious and very good reasons to have a ceremony such as: birthdays, graduation, rites of passage for teens and adults, memorials, life's big events. I love to design unique ceremonies for these events. In addition to these rites of passage I am called to create ceremonies for more subtle events.

At times we go through a transition that is hard to grapple with or perhaps diffcult to define, and a ceremony is a perfect way to get focused on what needs to be left behind and what needs to be reinforced.

My ceremonies help you to re-evaluate, get clarity on issues or perhaps get ideas for a creative project. The ceremony sets forces in motion to help you reach your goals, successfully manage transition, celebrate accomplishments, find a new direction, understand your greater purpose and so on.

New beginnings is probably the ceremony I am asked to design most frequently. A letting go is implied and the desire to get started on a new track is guiding you to make the necessary shift. The ceremony is cleansing, fulfilling, inspiring, motivating and energizing.

For those of you who are recovering from substance abuse, ceremonies are an excellent way to celebrate without alcohol or another induced high. The cermeony brings you to a level of peace, clarity and happiness that is profound and really enjoyable.

I recommend a land blessing ceremony if you are planning to build a house. The ceremony is fun with a small group of family and friends as there aere several parts I can give people to play in the ceremony.

The ceremony sets the tone and the energy for the property and the new dwelling. If there have been any unfortunate incidents on a property or in a house, an energy clearing is very helpful.

In house warming ceremonies, I use Feng Shui principles incorporated into my design. I work with each part of the house, the purpose of the room, who will inhabit it, and then I bring it all together into a unified whole.

These ceremonies are fun and profound and people really enjoy participating. Some clients have had the ceremony first and followed it with the house warming party!

My husband and I have over five acres of land with a medicine wheel designed by us with an intersting interface of Celtic and Native American style. I frequently have group ceeremonies here to celebrate solar or lunar events. I also have ceremonies for prosperity, relationships, healing, whatever feels right at the time. Several clients have hosted ceremonies at their home for their friends.

I also teach ceremony and can do so at my home or a location of your choosing. We sometimes have ceremonies on the beach as we are blessed with the beautiful Gulf of Mexico.

If you and your friends would like me to design a ceremony for you and you would like to host the location, we can arrange it. This is a wonderful event to have at your home as the ceremony also energizes your space in a beautiful way.

A ceremony to launch your business or bless a new office is an excellent idea. While planning the ceremony, we clarify the mission statement, the goals for the business; we work on areas such as relationships with clients and suppliers, customer service, decor, placement of important objects, etc.

A career change is a great idea for a ceremony to help bring the new work into focus. Reaching goals and milestones in business are also good excuses to have a ceremony. Ceremonies in business bring the employees together into harmony and can help with teamwork.

If you would like to go deeper into ceremony and learn to focus in this way I will be happy to create a class or retreat for you.

Ceremony is also an effective tool in my coaching business, many of my coaching clients like to be coached this way.

I look forward to designing and conducting a ceremony for you!
