Rite of passage
I am in tears reading the beautiful words I just received after a 1:1 Rite of Passage ceremony I held at my home… and in case you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to create a custom ceremony with me {either 1:1 or a gathering of your loved ones} I want to share this raw, heartfelt recounting of one woman’s experience.
{Why did you want to do a Rite of Passage ceremony with me?}
I have experienced group temples and have felt profound shifts each time. When you suggested the opportunity to do an individual one and one ceremony centered around the big life transition I was going through… it was an immediate “yes” for me.
I trusted you and leaned in and I’m SO grateful I did. I knew I needed it, and after the ceremony it was crystal clear that it was necessary for me. Being in the custom ceremony felt like such a gift on so so so many levels. The details of each moment of our time were beautiful and intentional.. full of art and meaning and texture.
From the moment I stepped foot inside, I felt a shift. From the colors to the altar, to the big fuzzy rug I laid my body on— all of it was so beautiful. Every sense was engaged through the experience. One of my favorite details were blowing out the candles as I processed grief. A process I will never forget.
{What was your biggest takeaway?}
My biggest takeaway was a sense of peace and hope like I hadn’t felt in a long time. I left with a curiosity for what lies ahead. I left with more love for myself and others than when I entered the ceremony. I felt so much lighter as I left the ceremony.
{Tell us more about the experience itself…}
Elizabeth is an intuitive and gentle guide. She knows the importance of space and of silence. She lead me to come to a deeper knowing of what was within me… rather than giving wisdom or advice, she lead me to find the answers that were already there.
Elizabeth is confident in every part of the process. Her confidence and ease and allowed me to fully let go and feel allll that needed to come up. She saw me and wept with me and laughed with me… she stayed grounded while I fell apart.
Her guidance is natural and compassionate. Her guidance feels as though strings of ancient wisdom run through her… through her hands, her voice, her choices as she moves through the ceremony.
All of it is sacred and so special. I wish every woman in my life could experience her presence in these ceremonies.
{What would you say to someone considering a Rite of Passage ceremony?}
To anyone signing up for a ceremony I would say… lucky you!!!! How blessed are you to walk into the room with Elizabeth and honor all the archetypes of womanhood.
Making a conscious decision to dive into this experience is a gift to yourself and to your family and then of course to the greater community around the world. These ripples of peace and wisdom and love and joy extend far greater than we realize.
Soak up every moment and let it all be. Leave and reflect. And then sign up again.
