PRIVATE GROUP EXPERIENCES
Gather your peeps to mark life transitions together
An opportunity to be together with your most intimate crew, to mark important threshold experiences that could range from birthdays to divorce to retirement to loss. We create sacred space in Shiné's fireplace room, out on the meetinghouse lawn, or a place of your choosing, and co-create a set of practices uniquely designed for the occasion. Past gatherings have included somatic techniques creating deep interconnectivity, hands-on TLC or collective laying on of hands, poetry you choose or I suggest, rituals meaningful to you or related to your ancestry or spiritual orientation; and/or crafting handmade gifts for the one who is crossing over the transition or funky, creative 'party favors' for the group to take home.
contribution: $250, plus materials and prep time compensation
