I am happy to support you in the development of tailor-made personal, secular and spiritual rituals and stand by your side as a ritual leader.
From the bottom of my heart I love to accompany people in the most diverse phases of life and have done so for several decades. In doing so, I became aware of how essential it is to celebrate and cherish life in its various forms. Rituals create a (sacred) space to understand life, to get involved in the rhythm of life, to celebrate life and love, to consciously commit to life transitions and to receive encouragement for upcoming steps in challenging situations.
I am happy to support you in the development of tailor-made personal, secular and spiritual rituals and stand by your side as a ritual leader. On request I could also introduce healing songs and circle dances to the ceremony.
Possible occasions for rituals:
Naming, welcoming new family members, birth, puberty, menopause, marriage / handfasting, renewal of vows, new beginnings, farewells, thank-you celebrations, retirement, changes of all kinds, funeral ceremonies, housewarming and whatever is important to you.
My experience as a psychological counsellor and supervisor, adult educator and ritual leader around the big themes of birth, life transitions and death are a good basis to accompany you and your family and your circle of friends in the development of very personal rituals.
In particular my attention is drawn to the transition at the end of life and the support of the grieving people. I have experience as a member of the Hospice Organisation and as a leader of a group of mourning people (parents of stillborn babies)
I have been a member of OBOD since 2014 and am currently in the Druid Grade. A special concern of mine is to offer inclusive rituals in which people with the most varied spiritual and religious orientations feel addressed and involved. I look forward to hearing from you at beate.reiss@aon.at
