Healing Ceremonies
Hello, my name is Rachel Cheer, and I am a sacred celebrant. At my business, Hope Ceremonies, I create bespoke rites of passage and healing ceremonies. I also run Women’s Circles, Women’s Retreats and other events. I live in Perthshire with my young family and I love my job!
Although we are poor in our society at thinking beyond weddings and funerals, I strongly believe that we need to reintroduce more ceremony and ritual back into our lives. It is a calling from our souls and when we answer this call, we really reap the benefits.
It is my intuitive feel that all ceremony is healing, from the cheeriest wedding to the saddest farewell to a loved one. This is because it takes us to a liminal place. An opportunity to pause. To assess where we have been and where we wish to go next. It is a balm in our busy modern lives. A chance to exhale and be still.
A ceremony I have been developing lately, with great success, is the Forgiveness Ceremony. Here we may choose to forgive another person, or most powerfully, ourselves. It is my observation that sadly we all carry burdens or traumas from our past. They often make moving forwards tricky, either consciously or sub-consciously. If these can be identified, explored and neutralised, the effects can be immense. I have personally received this ceremony too, for some childhood abuse I received, and I can report a huge lightness, as if the memory has become so tiny and insignificant, I can barely remember it. Quite incredible!
My work is framed by the wonderful energy of nature and spiritual connection. I work outside whenever possible, whatever the weather. I also infuse everything with my own brand of bright, detailed, creativity.
