RITUAL BAKING
Baking connects us to story and lineage. It opens a door / channel to embodied knowings and memories we may not have access to otherwise. Once that door is open we know it’s there. We can return to it over and over. We can bring it gifts & our love. We can ask questions. We can feel access to support & a sense of belonging in new and transformative ways. This is medicine.
“I feel my grandma with me sometimes when I’m baking. I hear her talking about the chocolate chip cake she loved to make, the coffee cake that was always my favorite and I now know was hers too.”
Who is this offering for?
For many of us, our ancestry and family lineages hold deep complexity. Present time and historical violence, colonization and oppression have shaped what stories we hold, who we know and how we relate. This work is expansive and offers an entry point into ancestral exploration that is subtle, rooted in present time and makes room for deep joy and nourishment—while simultaneously honoring these complexities.
Those longing to feel a connection or build relationship with your ancestors and are looking for a tangible place to start
Those who have a connection with your ancestors through story or felt-sense and are curious to deepen and explore in new ways
Those who are hesitant to know more about your ancestors and feel confused, angry or uncertain at how to relate to them
This offering is for you if you feel called
