These are intense times filled with loss, confusion and a growing need for sacred connection with yourself, others, and Source.

This opening session begins by acknowledging the impact of the current dramatic circumstances we’re living in and exploring ritual as a healing force in our own lives and in the world. You’ll explore how many of us have been separated from a sense of the Sacred… and ways to counter that separation with rituals of connection.

You’ll discover simple tools designed for cleansing, grounding, and opening to experience a more regulated nervous system… so you can begin to access your inspired and creative soul.

You’ll also learn how to:

• Release grief, fatigue, and overwhelm and support a more resourced nervous system
• Apply cleansing and grounding tools to clear and amplify your own energy and life force
• Develop a grounding and centering personal practice
• Become your own spiritual authority, able to connect with the Sacred
• Tap into your innate health, creativity, and intelligence

What is ritual? How do we craft containers for transformation that are both effective and participatory?

In this second module, Suzanne will offer numerous definitions of ritual and how to cultivate the presence of the Sacred in your everyday life. You’ll explore the history of ritual and how it has evolved. Suzanne will present the common elements of rituals worldwide, and discuss the important topic of respecting but not appropriating the sacred practices of the world.

She’ll also guide you in a step-by-step method for creating rituals that are practical, nourishing, and authentic.

In this class, you’ll:

• Learn how to build a ritual from start to finish by following Suzanne’s “ritual recipe” — and understand why ritual is so important
• Experience your own felt sense and enhance your empathic abilities and self-awareness
• Create powerful containers for transformation
• Practice creating a container, sensing yourself and the space around you

In this session, you’ll learn how trauma and stress impact your body and our world.

Suzanne will show you how to use simple trauma healing tools to release and shift trauma into resilience. You’ll explore how to access, move, and amplify your own life force and your self-expression as the main tools for building rituals of healing.

You’ll call your voice back from whenever you’ve relinquished it, or where it’s been taken from you — and learn to use your own sensitivity and resilience to catalyze personal and collective healing.

During this session you’ll:

• Use embodied ritual to release trauma and reclaim your expression
• Discover how to run your own energy in healing and potent ways
• Experience using simple trauma tools as magical helpers
• Start to awaken, strengthen, and reclaim your voice as your power
• Practice raising, changing, and containing energy and reclaiming your voice

In this module, Suzanne will guide you to explore the power of the word to create and change us. She’ll show you how to use your words to deepen and support the intention of your ritual.

You’ll discover the importance of engaging with elemental energies, directions, seasons, and other cycles — to align with the natural forces that can amplify our healing rituals.

You’ll learn how to honor and invoke ancestors as your sacred allies, and create powerful and specific invocations and prayers that support the shifts you’re seeking.

Suzanne will help you:

• Incorporate the nature elements as practical and magical tools
• Honor and invoke ancestors and tap into the great stream of all beings
• Align with the directions, seasons, and cycles of the year
• Cultivate a connection between personal will and Divine will
• Craft short, beautiful, and effective invocations

This class was created to explore the history of myth, story, and Deity as a way to understand the human experience. You’ll experience how ritual can lead you into mythopoetic realms of consciousness.

You’ll have the opportunity to tell your own story — working with your pain, resilience, tipping points, and course corrections — and begin to view your life as mythical and powerful. And as you reclaim the narrative from the modern entertainment industry, you’ll learn to perceive your own life as a story worth living and telling.

You’ll also explore the many kinds of transformations that can occur within ritual spaces, and how to work with myth and story as a way to understand and transform your own human experience.

This session will offer you the opportunity to:

• Reclaim your story and share it through the lens of myth and poetry
• Work with one myth to investigate and catalyze your own growth
• Learn about the many uses of ritual… such as healing, release, purging, honoring, celebrating, and more
• Cultivate relationship with Deity and your inner guidance

At this point in the journey, you’ll be ready to engage with a radical analysis of power — including power over, power under, power within, and power with.

You’ll practice using ritual as a way to refute the oppression of life force and eros. You’ll examine systemic oppression and how to create rituals that are inclusive and evolutionary…

… and you’ll discover how a true empirical experience of the Sacred inspires a sacred responsibility for all life.

Suzanne will show you how to infuse your actions with relational and connective skills… and help you liberate your creative imagination from colonization and conformity and step boldly into collective purpose.

In this module you’ll explore how to:

• Remove blocks and recognize your true power from within and with others
• Embrace your wildness and aliveness
• Empower your own and others’ sense of spiritual authority
• Engage in a practice that helps you find your pathway to purpose and action
• Turn your own experience of the Sacred into inspired action for change and healing
• Create rituals for change that are practical, inclusive, and engaged
