Private Rituals And Ceremonies
Are you interested in having a private ceremony at a location of your choice? Your Story Medicine specializes in creating rites-of-passages that support people with some of life’s greatest transitions.
Our experience includes plant medicine ceremonies, mother blessing ceremonies, grief rituals, marriages, and even separations. Prior to every ceremony, we offer preparation and integration support.
As trauma imprints and new insights can arise in ceremony, the real work begins in what happens afterward. Will you revert to old habit patterns, or take aligned action to create a new reality as you embody yourself as a future ancestor?
Whether you’d like 1:1 support for your own initiations or an intimate gathering of loved ones to infuse more ritual and ceremony into your life, let’s explore how we can best support you.
LET’S CONNECT!You bring the people, we’ll take care of facilitation. We’re also available to support with additional logistics, from housing to food, at an additional fee.
Plant Medicine Support:
My other specialty is preparation and integration support for those that work within the plant medicine realm (ayahuasca, psilocybin, dietas). As trauma imprints and new insights can arise in ceremony, the real work begins in what happens afterward. Will you revert to old habit patterns, or take aligned action to create a new reality as you embody yourself as a future ancestor? In the words of Jack Kornfield, “After the ecstasy, comes the laundry.”
Please fill out an application to share your intentions so that we can explore which service is best supportive to your journey. (If I do not feel my offerings are in alignment with your needs, I’m happy to refer you to my network of care.)
*Note: I prefer to work with people who are committed to their own personal growth and healing, which does not happen overnight. It takes time for our bodies to metabolize new ways of being, and it brings me great joy to witness the transformations that can occur when we are able to cultivate a relationship together beyond a single ceremony and session.
