SACRED PAUSE - Being Human at a Threshold Ceremony
A powerful guided ceremony, offering compassion, awareness, and deep recognition to the very human moment of standing at a threshold.
Sometimes we just need to mark the time, take a breath, and look around.
Ask ourselves: what’s here?
Perhaps it doesn’t have to be new year, new me.
Perhaps it can be new year, same me - growing, as I always am.
The most powerful way I know to honour moments like this - moments of change, pause, or uncertainty - is through ceremony.
Ceremony is the soul’s way of speaking.
A meaningful conversation with what is present around us, where we don’t have to know exactly what we are saying - only how we are saying it.
With love, intention, or vision.
Or with tears and grit, imperfection and frustration.
Ceremony is how we mark time - and how our nervous system and inner world hear us.
Taking a pause at this threshold allows us to breathe out and be human.
If ceremony isn’t something you usually offer yourself, this step-by-step guided practice has been carefully crafted to provide a clear, gentle structure - so you can relax into the experience and simply flow within it.
If you are hoping to move into this Year of the Fire Horse - allowing any transformation, power, or direction that wants to come - first, you need a sacred pause.
