Ritual is a timeless human technology for thriving in uncertainty

Whether a month-long immersive or a moment of contemplation, ritual helps us strengthen resilience, process difficult experiences, and restore meaning by way of carefully designed moments that matter. ​

People have used ritual to-- 

• mark transitions
• process grief
• foster belonging
• affirm values 
• clarify purpose
• celebrate  and reconnect to what we value most

These are especially valuable during times of uncertainty. ​​(Read: Now.) 


Unfortunately in our mediated and tech-saturated world, rituals have been largely commercialized and/or Insta-ready and all but lost their potency for psychological, social, and/or spiritual transformation. ​​​

Using our human-centered Resilience Through Ritual framework, I help individuals, organizations, and communities design and implement meaningful rituals to navigate change, fostering deeper connection, greater alignment and stronger resilience. ​​

Betty was a wonderful facilitator! Each session was tailored to meet the needs of the participants with a wonderful flow of interaction, discussion, journaling, questions to think about, and connecting. 

 

After 4 sessions I felt like I had learned so much about the content of the course. Betty took her time to actively listen to each of us and validated our comments. She was calm, knowledgeable, kind, and caring. I was so impressed with her!
