Living in Ceremony
How can we find more ways to pause, to witness beauty, to appreciate the miracle of life, to connect back into our true nature and to live intentionally? There are many ways to incorporate ceremony into our daily lives. We offer ceremony as an opportunity to slow down to appreciate what is right in front of us and to offer gratitude to the Earth, Sky and Spirit. We will discover how to bring ceremony into every moment and witness the beauty of life unfold. AHO! HIYAYA
