HD704 Creating Ceremonies to Celebrate Life–at Home and at Work (1 cr.)


In this course students explore ceremonies’ structure and purpose that add mindfulness, gratitude, healing, and beauty to life and connect to values and goals, nature, others, and the sacred. Students experience and evaluate ceremony in class, consider the myriad ways ceremony and ritual can be used in personal and professional life, and begin to create their own rituals and ceremony.

Upon completion of this course, students are expected to be able to do the following:

  1. Analyze the purposes and effects of ritual/ceremony and the relevance and importance in today’s world.
  2. Evaluate personal and professional rituals and ceremonies.
  3. Apply the basic building blocks of ceremony to create new rituals.
