Raised by parents who’s people lost their traditions & ceremonies generations ago- raised on land that was taken from others, who in turn, were persecuted for their traditions.
When this struck me, it left me enraged and grief stricken. As a way to fill the void of absent ceremonies, I dove into learning about how indigenous peoples all over the world conducted ceremonies, rituals, and initiations. However, while beautiful, those traditions are not of my lineage. I was not shown them with sanctioning to practice them. Nor do I feel in integrity doing so. And yet… Ceremonies are a vital part of our human experience. They're the cord that connects our humanity to spirit. They serve as a threshold between life stages. Help us connect with the cycles of life; giving us a way to grieve our deaths and celebrate our births. They also offer us a way to build strong, vibrant communities. |
"Learning how to create ceremony has been transformational. Finding depth & meaning to that which is all around us, is a beautiful journey. Lynn is a phenomenal teacher whose light & energy makes you feel held & supported." -Leigha May |
