RITUAL UNION : Collective Heartbeat
Collective Heartbeat is a 2.5-hour Ritual Union gathering for men and women to remember our connectedness through presence, vulnerability, and community. Together, we’ll weave sound, movement, and storytelling into a living ritual that attunes us to the rhythm of the whole. In being seen and seeing others, we awaken the shared heartbeat that makes us strong—individually and collectively.
What is RITUAL UNION ?
Ritual Union is a space of re-villaging — Each gathering is a living ritual, where we return to community, to presence, and to the shared fire that makes us human. Beyond men’s work and women’s work, this is Human Work: this is where we rebuild kinship, belonging, and tend to collective heartbeat of the village.
Mens work cultivates brotherhood, women’s work cultivates sisterhood, Ritual Union is about cultivating the village - to tend to the tapestry of community.
Core Pillars:
Connection
We come together in truth. We practice presence, listen deeply, and weave authentic bonds that dissolve isolation.
Confrontation
We face ourselves and each other with courage. Not to wound, but to reveal — meeting the edges that call us forward into growth. Through confrontation we have the opportunity to reclaim unmet aspects of ourselves and write a new story.
Community
Each person, each voice, each story strengthens the circle and reminds us we are not alone.
Commitment
We show up and keep walking this work forward. We stay present, accountable, and engaged — not just in the gathering, but in the way we show up for ourselves, each other, and our communities.
Who is this for: Ritual Union is for those who hunger for deeper connection, ready to set down the masks and meet themselves and each other heart to heart. It's for the Mamas and Papas, Sisters and Brothers, Aunties and Uncles, and Elders who carry the threads of the village. All men and women, 18 years and older, are welcome in the circle.
