....the Sacred with Illana Berger, PhD

Living The Sacred with Dr. Illana Berger

Call for Appointment: 510-339-8382

Rituals:

Special birthday rituals, house blessings, graduation rituals, personal rituals

I work one-on-one with you to acknowledge important life passages in your life, or the life of a loved one, in distinct and powerful ways.  I design these ceremonies for you following a preliminary meeting, either in person, on the phone or via email. My commitment is to empower you to arrange and enact the ritual on your own, however I will joyfully step in and act as facilitator if you wish.   

The facilitation of these individual rituals/ceremonies, which can be performed privately or with family and friends, serves on many levels:  

  • A ritual has the power to infuse special occasions and personal milestones with a sense of the sacred… whether it is a new birth, a 16th birthday, or retirement, a ritual deepens both the impact and the meaning these milestones have on our lives and upon our destiny.  From menarche to menopause, promotion to retirement, engagements and anniversaries, to loss, death and divorce, a ritual opens the door of possibility for our future. 
  • A ritual celebrates new beginnings.  By blessing a new baby, a new mother, or a new home; a ritual brings promise, inspiration and joy to the occasion. Through a baby blessing-way, home blessing, or special bridal shower you have the opportunity to mark the celebration with the presence of the sacred. The event then becomes transformative for we are directing our intention and attention toward a particular outcome through our symbolic actions. This activates movement in our lives toward our inspired goals.

Transformation and Transition:

Separation & Divorce rituals, Rite of Passage, Transition rituals, Memorials

  1. A ritual eases difficult transitions. Through special and unique memorial services; separation rituals for the endings of special relationships or marriages; or by releasing old "baggage" and obstacles: physical, mental or emotional, these rituals support the beginning of personal or familial healing. Truly transformative ceremonies and rituals empower us to infuse magic into our ordinary lives, recognize major life events in profoundly satisfying ways, and remember our connection to our deepest selves and each other. 

Working one-on-one with hands on energy work and a spiritual exploration of physical and spiritual ailments and challenges, we enter into a transformaional process of healing.
