Honour the space between no longer and not yet
​Nancy Levin

Honouring Life's Transitions and Tranformations


In addition to ceremonies for  Baby Welcoming & Namings, Weddings, and Life's Endings, I also write and perform custom, personal ceremonies and rituals for:

Commitment Ceremonies.  Marriage is a personal choice and many couples decide not to marry legally, but rather celebrate their union with a Commitment Ceremony.  These ceremonies have no legal value, yet create an intimate, meaningful space as each partner pledges their intentions and commitment to the other. Ring exchanges and other rituals can also be included in these touching ceremonies.  If you have or plan to have children commitments and pledges to the children can be an evocative part of the ceremony. 

​​Crossing the Menopause Threshold.  Menopause isn't an ending, rather an invitation to pause and mindfully honour a sacred transition of crossing the threshold into a whole new phase of life. 

In the midst of busy careers and family responsibilities while often caring for aging parents, many women move through this passage without pausing to honour and acknowledge what can become an incredibly powerful, authentic and liberating time in her life.  

Ceremony and ritual make space for this pause by creating time and space to stop, reflect, and embrace menopause with intention and meaning.  With a focus on what is being released and what is ready to emerge, menopause can become a deeply meaningful rite of passage and an authentic, fulfilling stage of life.

Ceremonies and rituals for Crossing the Menopause Threshold can be held in both an intimate setting with just the two of us, or in a larger group setting.
