The Practical Book Of Ceremonies for the Southern Hemisphere

Are you at a turning point in your life?

This book offers a glimpse into the world of ceremony and how the right ceremony for you can bring clarity, joy, and transformation. Ceremonies, or rites of passage as they are sometimes called, have been often shut out of our lives.

This book revisits Ceremonial possibilities.

The Practical Book of Ceremonies for the Southern Hemisphere will help you create new possibilities.

"I have enjoyed your book immensely, I loved your open, honest and soulful response to peoples need for ritual and ceremony in their lives, and the descriptions of the ceremonies in the book are inspiring. So refreshing to hear examples of how your intuitive, serendipitous, open and fluid approach has influenced your decision making for these life enhancing experiences, and what a difference these experiences has made to people as they transition from one phase of life to another."

Be inspired, be set free and be welcomed to a new trend where kindness is considered first.

This month's story: Funerals

As I get older, I attend funerals as frequently as I did weddings in my 20s. I have noticed that over the years the way funerals are conducted has changed. It was once the province of the Church to conduct a funeral service, followed by a burial or cremation. Today, many funerals are presided over by a celebrant or a family member, and if a cremation, at the crematorium's chapel. Everything is done, it seems to me, to make the occasion as painless as possible. The coffin, festooned with flowers is already at the front of the church or chapel as the mourners arrive. After the ceremony, usually accompanied by a slide show of happy family times, the coffin is left in place, to be dealt with later, while the family and friends retire to another room to be fed and watered. This is supposed to be 'closure', however the family's pain continues, despite the sanitary way we deal with death. Maybe it could be done in a different way. Recently I was privileged to be at one of the most moving funerals I have ever attended. I share it with you in our short story page.

Last month's story: A Love Letter To Harry

I often wonder how we can fill ourselves with wonder and awe and it occurred to me that maybe love is one of the ways to do that. Our short story this month is about love, however, it comes with a surprise. Enjoy! Love to hear your thoughts on love.
