The Art of Sacred Living is a vehicle for
teaching mindfulness, finding meaning, and revealing the sacred in ordinary
acts of everyday living.
Our intention is to facilitate increased heart and soul connections to
ourselves, each other, our communities, our planet and the divine. To
accomplish our goals of mindfulness, gratitude, and reverence, we work
in many modalities.
Workshops
For seven years, Laura DiVilio-Rebick and Christine Freeman have been
leading workshops for women. In our workshops, we create a safe and nurturing
environment for self-discovery, increased awareness, and creativity to
flourish. Our work area becomes a sacred space in which to share thoughts
and feelings, music, poetry, laughter, and tears. Using creative visualization,
artwork, movement, and ritual, we provide opportunities for transformation.

Rituals
Together and individually, Laura and Christine have guided individuals
and groups in creating ceremonies of meaning and depth. Meaningful ritual
acknowledges the importance of transitions, celebrates life passages and
personal achievements, and is attuned to the cycles of nature. Entering
a ritual together connects the participants to their deeper selves, to
each other, and to the cosmos. We have designed rituals for significant
events (such as wedding showers, a young woman's coming of age, becoming
an elder, honouring death/loss), seasonal celebrations, and personal rituals
(for purification, blessing a new home, personal commitments and achievements).
