We may lose track of where we're going and even start to question our values. How can ceremony help us through the transformations in our lives?

14 min - S1 E12 Why Weddings Push Our Buttons (Jocelyn Charnas)
Episode Summary:
Transitions are our friends. Transitions bring us new things. Transitions can also bring discomfort, but that discomfort offers us a chance to grow - if we are willing to let it have a seat at the table. What would happen if we embraced the discomfort, embraced the difficulty, embraced the challenge? What would it be like if all parts of us were offered a place at the table?

23 min - S1 E9 A Ritual for Flow
Episode Summary:
In these less than normal times, when the world is crying out for change, it can be difficult to tell which way is up, let alone make decisions on how to move forward. But liminality offers us the opportunity to slow down and look within. What if we could find a way to flow with the chaos? What if, inside, we actually know what we need to do next?
Here are some steps to create a ritual for flow: 1. Create a quiet space. 2. Slow down and center. 3. Notice the words, phrases and images in our head. 4. Find ourselves in the center of the chaos. 5. Follow our intuition and go with the flow of the moment. 6. Jot any ideas or plans down to consider later. 7. Rest the body for a few moments if possible. 8. Eat! And review the list of ideas we made earlier.
