‘Transformation through Transition’
Open to the possibilities before you…
After being married in June and going through a beautiful rite of passage through the wedding ceremony (archived and chronicled on my radio show), I am now going through another exciting and adventurous life transition. I am pregnant and due in the spring. I have been experiencing the importance of honoring each phase of these life transitions as they occur and know how important it is to take the time to consciously honor the processes and changes we encounter in our day to day life.
Arnold Ven Gennep, a Dutch Anthropologist and Joseph Campbell, American Mythologist and writer, both identified three different phases that make up any life transition. Campbell identified them as the 1) the separation 2) the initiation 3) the return . According to Campbell this was key to what he called the ‘Hero’s journey’. Van Gennep coined these transition phases with the term “rite of passage” and identified them as 1) letting go and separation 2) liminal stage (in-between) 3) re-incorporation-the return.
Always in the phase of creating and becoming, we pass through important milestones that sometimes get ritualized and celebrated and sometimes do not. (This new coaching group starting at the end of January) , Transformation through Transition, was created to support your transition and transformation consciously. A space will be created for you to share and honor where you are at in your transition process while being coached by me and supported by others also moving through a certain life passage.
It is customary and very healing (as observed in various cultures throughout the world) to gather in a community and honor and mark these life transitions. This group will do just that by providing coaching, support, celebration and acknowledgement on your journey to becoming
Collectively we are welcoming in the energy of 2011. This group beginning at the start of the year, will ride on the energy of the new year by coming together with the intention of Transformation through Transition. You will be celebrated, acknowledged and launched in to your greatest self as you inquire in to yourself and are curious about what is unfolding for you now at this time in your life.
I look forward to meeting you, supporting you and celebrating you on your journey.
