Ceremony
There are so many moments in our lives worth marking, honouring and celebrating. At Beam we can help you make “just right” time and space for each of them.
“The most powerful kind of ceremony is the kind that is authentic and originates with you.”
– Robin Wall Kimmerer, Braiding Sweetgrass
When Can Ceremony Be Helpful?
Ceremonies and rituals invite us to pause and acknowledge what we are experiencing during times of change in our lives. Honouring beginnings, transitions and endings – from heartbreaking to heart-bursting – is part of what makes our lives feel whole, connected and meaningful.
I have designed and hosted ceremonies for events including:
- Deaths and Celebrations of Life
- Career transitions and “retirements”
- Fertility journeys and pregnancy loss
- Milestone birthdays
- Relationship transitions
- Welcoming new babies and honouring new parents
- Illness and healing journeys
- First moon (menstruation)
- Menopause transition
What Can I Expect in a Ceremony With Emma?
A unique celebration or honouring that fits you, the person or people you are honouring, and the occasion!
The best part? There are no rules or limits to what is possible in a ceremony that we create together. Music, art, words, silence, light, lots of people, a few people or just one person, animals, food, water, laughter and tears might all be elements.
Whether or not you identify as a spiritual person, and whether or not you feel connected with a particular faith or set of cultural traditions, I would be delighted to work with you to create a ceremony that suits your personality, lifestyle, community, and way of being in the world.
Let’s talk and dream up ideas together.
