In the context of any ceremony food
is pivotal in bringing people together to
experience the joy of spirit. All of the
artisans and practitioners who are associated
with Sacred Fire Ceremonies
have deep experience with being in ceremony.
As such our crew is aware that embodied
practices and the sharing of food (communion)
are pivotal ingredients in grounding the
ecstatic celebratory energy.
