Why Ritual?
In its essence ritual is about connection. When we say we’re feeling uprooted, lost, or overwhelmed with life what we’re really saying is we’ve broken the connection and lost touch with the inner voice of our soul. That deepest part of ourselves that knows our intrinsic value, loves all we are and wants to grow and expand into more. More love, more presence, more being, and more flow.
Ritual is...
Ritual is how we find our way back to the truth of ourselves amidst the chaos of our days and everything that’s being asked of us. It’s a way to reconnect and discover what matters most to us, what gives our lives meaning, and what makes us feel aligned, whole, and in the divine flow of all of who we are.
Ritual, just like writing, is a bridge. A bridge to the parts of ourselves that we are least familiar with but that hold essential truths of who we are and what we have to offer. This is how ritual becomes a link to our soul and the mysterious other. It helps us reclaim our voice we’ve lost along the way and sing ourselves back home again.
In order to find more of our authentic selves, our voice, and the honest pulse of what we want to do and how we want to live, we have to listen intently. Listening comes easier when we settle down, look inwards and willingly reconnect to the whole truth of who we are, the dark and the light, the celebrated and rejected. Ritual is part ceremony and part container for communing with what we don’t quite understand and those things that can’t be named, articulated, or pinned down.
The stronger this connection becomes between the known and the unknown, the seen and the unseen potential the less we live in dichotomy. The split between who we are inside and what we live on the outside lessens. Ritual helps us integrate these seemingly seperate selves and live in greater wholeness. It strengthens us and builds our courage, it steadies our voice and lets it grow stronger, become clearer, and more honest.
A small daily ritual can help you slow down, be present, and reconnect and realign you with your soul purpose. The part of you that has nothing to do with where you live or what you do and everything to do with the mystery that keeps tugging at your heart asking you to fully enter and engage with life. Maybe you haven’t noticed what’s been missing, maybe you are weary of how to start your journey. The search is over. Ground in the now and celebrate what is. Reconnect to your deepest self yourself through ritual.
