Until next time, Sri Lanka. Touched by beauty and sweetness. ❤️We shared our favorite gems from our short expedition in this Ritual Guide: https://ritual-studio.squarespace.com/city-guides/#/sri-lanka

Photo by my love @metapattern // Suspended in a pillow of clouds
Above lush green lands
The pink and brown ridges mountains lay above
Resounding yes to the ridge so high
Up on the mountain lay a fountain of light
Unknown to us the finals of fury
How long have they been up there
She said to her grandmother,
I ask you to see
And witness the oracle
Sweeping and calling forth, unto you do I stay
Asking for quiet forgiveness
And dancing our prayers
I would love to see where this may emerge,
And onto you I ask for stillness
This heart speaks and knows there is all the time
In the world to grow and become.
What a beautiful journey this road is to discover
Time and time again in this breath we wait
Calling and knowing the journey is the destination
Can't we see how this place will wait
For no one to tell us where to go and when
We can't ask for a better adventure
Because it's beyond our sight,
It takes a trusting heart and a listening ear to know where to go - asking our court of guides to take us on a ride
But only when we're ready and just the amount we need. I look forward to the moment we can call in the ancestors and call in the family from around the world - we are calling you, when the time is right. // Deep bow 🙏

In Sri Lanka, outside most homes and stores are these beautiful shrines and usually fresh blossoms that spill over into luscious bounty. Fresh oils are set out as offerings to the Divine, and people bow in prayer as an arrival and departure ritual. This was outside a wonderful ayervedic spa we went to run by all women. So inspired! @liveritual #srilanka

The end of a weekend adventure with friends from 17 countries to celebrate for Daniel and Angela's wedding! So grateful to be in company that appreciates richness of experience. #becauseofdnawedding

Sri Lankan hospitality // studying the art of experience design and space design for @liveritual. Sampling the beauties here. Tip: fresh flowers in bowls of water brings life and natural beauty immediately to any space!

Sri Lankan wedding in a UNESCO fort. Celebrating love in the leafy, luscious, historic gem of Sri Lanka, Galle. Grateful for the opportunity to finally come to this magnificent country I've always wanted to visit. Inspired by the kindness and purity of the culture and its people. ❤️Congratulations #dnawedding!! ✨🙌👌🙏❤️

Moved by the beauty of this sacred pilgrimage site in Kataragama, Sri Lanka, Buddhist temple. The flower ceremony was moving and a symbol of their workshop and adoration of the divine. Everyone was glowing with radiant beauty and smiles, the soul of the place ringing. Such an honor to be in such reverence for beauty and prayer. #sacredsites

Reflecting on the Southwest Expedition, editing photos and writing stories from the road as part of the birth of @liveritual: tools and practices to help you be more healthy and creative on the road. What an incredible journey. Reliving the magic and mystery of this sacred land. Big sky, earth tones, reference for nature. ❤️

Packing checklist for Sri Lanka in the zendo. Going for 10 days to explore this special land I've always dreamed of going since I was a little girl. This trip is the second Ritual Expedition and a very close friends wedding, and an opportunity to get our systems and travel kits dialed. Excited to share more soon on the website launching! @liveritual #livingsystems

I love the places my work brings me. This boutique taxidermy shop in Kansas City, MO was such a delightful surprise, founded and run by two young girls passionate about preserving and sharing the beauty of animal spirits. I'd never connected with taxidermy until now, and appreciating new ways of seeing and understanding the world. Grateful to Kauffman Foundation for bringing me to their headquarters this week! #newamerica #exploration
