lifecycle rituals

keren creates and officiates unique lifecycle rituals, often traveling around the country and, at times, in israel. she offers custom designed rituals that reflect universal spiritual principles or personalized ceremonies connected to the hebrew/jewish lineage. please call for a complimentary initial consultation.
 

 
her rituals flow with an inimitable type of artistry, emanating from a wealth of experience in the performing arts, both on the stage and in the behind-the-scenes production elements. she is gifted to offer a wide range of styles and elements of ritual and is able to fulfill the visions of many different types of individuals to make ritual and ceremony that is both truly transformative and personally meaningful.

keren remains independent of any institutional affiliations and thus brings a unique, personal approach to spirituality and life-cycle ceremonies. she works in close collaboration with each individual she serves, so that the essence of the spiritual that is relevant to the client infuses the form of the practice and/or ritual that is co-created.


a specialty in keren's repertoire:
authentic ceremony

as humanity is evolving toward world- culture and embracing a universal spirituality, the religious and other codified lineages feel foreign to many. With keren's guidance, we can access our primal knowings of prayer and ceremony, and experience an immediate and relevant alchemy. The innate is more ancient than dogma or religion, and less finite.

  • for life transitions, healing, passages, guidance & intention setting
  • including prayer, movement, music, & interaction with natural elements.
  • co-created with the client and performed either in an individual or group setting.

"keren helped us to create a wedding ceremony and celebration full of meaning and joy. all of the jewish cultural influences were heartfelt by our guests, who one year later are still giving high praises to the details of our special day. it was a unique, spiritual and beautiful wedding, unlike one that anyone had ever experienced. thank you for our wonderful day!"

"...i love the way you lead ceremony. there is a certain fearlessness you exude in your approach and practice that is refreshing and seemingly filled with love for everything.

good for you, and good for everyone whom you reach out to; you have a gift which shines very brightly."
