Threshold Sessions

Wrapping ceremony around the crossing of thresholds is wrapping love around you at the most fragile and pinnacle points in your life.

Holding ceremony has long been a passion of mine. I believe in wrapping ceremony around the crossing of thresholds with love, compassion and a deep knowing, a trust in the unfolding of events being gently guided by intuition and support from the shamanic realms.

Whether you are entering into motherhood, grieving profound loss, or navigating earth shaking shifts in your identity, moving through a rite of passage can be intense. And, it almost always takes far longer than we would like it to. We need guidance to hold us through the discomfort and unknown of the process. In the world that we live in right now, we are lacking the structures, rituals and elders that can support us in navigating life's rites of passage.

For generations we have been, in my opinion, wrongly been striving towards the myth of individualism and the belief that we need to keep things to ourselves, keep our heads down and get on with things. I’m here to tell you that isn’t true. You deserve to be deeply held, supported, and guided through this liminal experience.

The Three Threshold Sessions

The Threshold Sessions are broken down into three sessions: Separation, Liminal Space and The Return.

Separation

In the Separation phase, we withdraw or detach from who we once were - sometimes this is by choice, and sometimes this is beyond our control. But there is always a catalyst that sets off a chain of events that tells us that something is changing. We often experience this as a separation from our former self.

Liminal Space

This phase is the period between the two other stages - the messy middle. We have left one place, but have not yet entered into the next. This can be a deeply uncomfortable space to inhabit, and one which so often goes ignored in our society.

Return

The Return is the third and final phase, we step into our new identity or learn to accept and be with our new experience of the world. We return to ourselves and our seen as changed, even though we have likely changed in ways we could never have foreseen or imagined.

Here is how I will support you:

We will have three sessions together over the course of a couple of weeks. We can work on the time scale to suit your needs. Each of the sessions are two hours long. I will provide witnessing, soul tending and practical support.

A little more about what each of those mean:

Witnessing

Being heard, and held, in your full truth and raw expression of self is deeply healing. I will be here to witness your truth without judgment. There will be space in our sessions for you to speak, freely, and be seen and witnessed in all that you are - the painful and the powerful.

Soul Tending

Often our busy, thinking minds get in the way of what we actually need at a soul level. I am here to help you sift through all that is present, and get to the core of what is real for you. I’ll offer guidance and spiritual coaching so you can speak truths you may have been holding back and make brave choices in your life.

Practical Support

An outside eye can help us identify resources we need, but feel shy to ask for, or other logistical shifts we can make to better support ourselves. I’m here to explore and identify what kind of support and changes you can call in to make this threshold journey feel empowering.

Ritual Creation

It is essential to our sense of belonging to the earth, to our bodies, and to each other that we mark the moments of transformation in our lives with a sense of the sacred. I will help you design a ritual, or rituals, to help you mark and integrate the rite of passage you are moving through.

IF AT THE END OF OUR THREE SESSIONS, YOU SENSE YOU WOULD BENEFIT FROM FURTHER SUPPORT, WE CAN DISCUSS THE OPTION OF ADDING ADDITIONAL SESSIONS.
