At certain times in life, we feel a stirring, something quiet but insistent. A sense that change is needed. That we are being called to grow, to shed an old skin, to let go of old patterns and give birth to a new way of being.
π—ͺπ—œπ—Ÿπ——π—˜π—₯π—‘π—˜π—¦π—¦ π—©π—œπ—šπ—œπ—Ÿ was created for these moments.
Rites of Passage mark key thresholds in life β€” transitions from adolescence to adulthood, adulthood to elderhood, and the many turning points in between: the beginning or end of relationships, career shifts, retirement, losses, healing, or simply the need to reconnect with self.
We offer to create and hold space, to build a strong, steady container through which you will journey through a 3-stage process:
- π‘†π‘’π‘£π‘’π‘Ÿπ‘Žπ‘›π‘π‘’: letting go of the old shape or story
- π‘‡β„Žπ‘Ÿπ‘’π‘ β„Žπ‘œπ‘™π‘‘: time alone in nature, to listen, to ask: Who am I now?
- πΌπ‘›π‘π‘œπ‘Ÿπ‘π‘œπ‘Ÿπ‘Žπ‘‘π‘–π‘œπ‘›: bringing your insights and vision back into the world
We are here as guides. We offer tools and will hold space as you walk, and perhaps redefine, your path through life.
As you step into this threshold, a space to slow down, to listen, and remember, in solitude and in ceremony, we will honour all aspects of ourselves and invite you to explore what is seeking renewal, release, or transformation.
Nature is the teacher, the mirror, the one that helps us remember what truly matters.
π—ͺ𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗧𝗒 π—˜π—«π—£π—˜π—–π—§
We’ll support your preparation, gathering online for 2–3 Zoom meetings before the time on Country.
Then, we’ll spend 6 days together on Country - 16 to 21 November - holding this ancient rite that has helped people navigate life transitions for as long as humans have existed.
You’ll be invited to spend 2 days and nights in solitude, fasting, with only yourself and the more-than-human world for company.
Finally, we’ll gather again on Zoom to reflect, and integrate what it means to return to a world that may not have changed with you. Incorporation begins – grounding your experience into the life you now step back into, with grounded clarity and care.
