WHAT IS SACRED FIRE?For millennia, people have gathered around fire for warmth, stories, and connection. When people needed extra support they would gather around a special fire - also known as a Sacred Fire.This ancient practice and remedy for human beings is still available, facilitated by trained Firekeepers who create safe space for personal and community transformation.Throughout time, this method of connection—called "Fire Work"—has helped societies form wise and balanced cultures. As today's world grows increasingly complex, Sacred Fire offers everyone the opportunity to experience fire's benefits for healing and life improvement.Sacred Fire offers a safe place where:We can be vulnerable with our doubts and fearsBurdens, concern, shock, grief, or anger find reliefNumbness transforms into well-beingJoy and connection emergeYou can be youCome with your questions, stories, songs, laughter, tears, presence, or silence. All are welcome.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━? MEET YOUR FIREKEEPERSLisa Lichtig and Patrick Hanaway are trained & initiated Firekeepers in the International Sacred Fire Community.
