Review

 "Compassionate...personal...Ingerman’s comforting ceremonies will provide interested, believing readers with practices for times of strife, stress, and uncertainty." —Publishers Weekly “Sandra Ingerman invites you on a life-transforming magical carpet ride in her new release, The Book of Ceremony. She reminds you that rituals and ceremonies are the drawbridges to a lush landscape where the ordinary can seamlessly evolve into the sacred. Easy-to-follow directions will guide you to confidently prepare, plan, and execute rituals and ceremonies for all circumstances. This engaging read is perfect for those of you just beginning to recognize and explore your spiritual path, all the way up to the most seasoned and gifted shamans. Whether your occasion is a joyful event such as the birth of a new baby, tough times like transitions, hardships, or endings, or even welcoming nature’s changing seasons, the tools are there. Sandra takes her profound insights and knowledge and weaves it all into relevant stories that will lovingly grab you right from page one. The way she meshes new technology with ancient wisdom is brilliant and exciting. While immersing myself in this wondrous work, I experienced a myriad of emotions from laughter to compassionate tears. Keep this book handy. You and your community will visit it often for its simple reminders on how to live life fully as an expression of your gratitude for the unseen world of spirit.” —Renee Baribeau, the Practical Shaman, Wind Whistler, and author of Winds of Spirit: Ancient Wisdom Tools for Navigating Relationships, Health, and the Divine   “Our word ‘ceremony’ is derived from the Latin word caerimoni. It covers a range of meanings from observance and solemnity to sanctity or holy deed. Ceremony means performing a sacred act. During a ceremony, the veil between the worlds dissolves and the gates to our soul open while the hands of our ancestors cradle us. Hope, healing, and miracles all live in this place. As Sandra says in this book: ceremony is a sacred tool so powerful that we cannot keep it for ourselves—it must be shared! Thank you, Sandra Ingerman, for giving the world a book that preserves the mystery of ceremony yet tells us how ceremony is actually done, allowing all of us to taste a drop of eternity.” —Imelda Almqvist, international teacher of sacred art and shamanism, author of Natural Born Shamans: A Spiritual Toolkit for Life and Sacred Art, a Hollow Bone for Spirit: Where Art Meets Shamanism   “The book in your hands is a treasure trove of wisdom for creating powerful ceremonies for any occasion, packed with case studies, practical advice, and step-by-step instruction from a master healer and beloved teacher. Whether you need a simple practice for your personal life, or are facilitating a large gathering for a whole community, The Book of Ceremony provides a wide range of fresh, innovative ceremonies for those new to shamanism and experienced practitioners alike. “In these pages, you’ll find a wide range of ceremonial medicine including altar-making, traditional fire and water ceremonies, coming-of-age ceremonies, blessing ceremonies, relationship ‘unwinding’ ceremonies, energy-balancing ceremonies for body and earth, innovative virtual ceremonies for online sessions, and Ingerman’s beautiful transfiguration ceremonies. All are punctuated by practical advice on length (‘keep it short’), intention, unforeseen situations, holding safe space, and allowing the helping spirits to ‘work with you, not for you.’ “A great teacher leads not only with fine instruction but with her inner light and way of being in the world. As a graduate of Sandra’s shamanic teacher training program, I saw firsthand how she could lead and light up an entire room with simple, well-designed ceremonies for transforming our personal lives, communities, and the wounded earth. This book shows you how she did that with clear intention, complete trust in her helping spirits, gentle humor, and great love.” —Jeff Nixa, JD, MDiv, director of Great Plains Shamanic Programs and author of The Lost Art of Heart Navigation: A Modern Shaman’s Field Manual   “When we undertake ceremonies with reverence and intentionality, we can more easily release old beliefs, emotions, and obstacles to transformation and bring in both new energy for healing and growth as well as insights about our lives and our stories about them. In The Book of Ceremony, Sandra Ingerman explains that ceremony directly connects us to the invisible, sacred realms and helps us achieve joy, peace, and transformation. She encourages readers to ponder the ultimate realities of life and use ceremony to engage and more deeply experience transitions that serve as initiations into a new stage of being. Beautifully describing many types of ceremonies, Ingerman provides examples of the profound effects they can have on those who participate, their descendants, and others in their communities and in the world. Explaining how to work with nature and its elements outdoors or indoors, she provides ideas for simple as well as more involved ceremonies, all of which have a beginning, middle, and end. Even so, within those structures lies the potential for the unexpected to deepen their meaning, and her stories remind us of the importance of remaining open to Spirit’s ideas about what we need to learn and experience. “Ingerman stresses the importance of incorporating ceremonies into our everyday lives as individuals, but also shows that we can use them to bring ourselves together with others in community. More experienced shamanic practitioners as well as beginners at working in the shamanic realms will find a cornucopia of powerful ideas here for creating and engaging in ceremonies that provide a sense of meaning, healing, and connection.” —Carl Greer, PhD, PsyD, author of the bestselling, award-winning Change Your Story, Change Your Life   “The Book of Ceremony will be one to refer to many times through the coming years whenever there is a call to honor transitions, celestial events, celebrations, or for any other reason that you want to invoke the conscious presence of Spirit in action. A longtime practitioner and teacher of shamanism, Sandra Ingerman has led and participated in hundreds of ceremonies for a variety of purposes. She offers abundant examples of various types of ceremony along with examples that will inspire you and give you guidelines for doing your own, whatever the designated purpose. It’s a must-have book for anyone, whether a beginner or an experienced practitioner!”—Steven Farmer, PhD, author of Sacred Ceremony and Earth Magic, leader of Earth Magic®   “The Book of Ceremony is a gem! Sandra Ingerman is a master—of ceremonies, of spiritual leadership, and of bridging shamanic practice and everyday life. The Book of Ceremony is packed with practical step-by-step guidance for creating profound ceremonial work. It’s inspiring and joyful to read so many examples of healing from this work. One of Sandra’s many gifts is her ability to meet us where we are while motivating us to go deeper. In The Book of Ceremony, she gives us an intimate look at her own personal ceremonies and shows how we can create beautiful and meaningful ceremonies for ourselves, our loved ones, and our community. You will return to this wonderful book again and again.”—Mara Bishop, MS, author of Inner Divinity: Crafting Your Life with Sacred Intelligence and 365 Journeys: Shamanism for Every Day   “In The Book of Ceremony, Sandra Ingerman has created something I’ve never encountered before! To say that The Book of Ceremony is comprehensive in its scope would be a gross understatement. Sandra offers instruction and examples for ceremonies that apply to virtually any life situation or circumstance I could imagine. And paradoxically, the book feels concise and to the point. In each chapter, Sandra shares her vast wisdom and experience with an abundance of information on the categories of ceremony she explores. Sandra’s loving reverence for the earth and all beings is evident on every page, and it’s obvious that she is a teacher who ‘walks the walk’ with immense integrity and authenticity.              “One of the many outstanding qualities I love most about Sandra’s teaching and writing is her unique ability to transmit and articulate shamanic wisdom teachings that can seem very complex and esoteric to those unfamiliar with shamanism and related topics. Her writing is clear and accessible to virtually anyone at any level. As a seasoned shamanic practitioner and teacher, ceremony and ritual have a central role in my life. Yet I found myself being continuously inspired by the many ‘gems’ I discovered while reading this book, and I am already incorporating some of these into my life. “For anyone interested in shamanism, shamanic practice, and earth-based spirituality, The Book of Ceremony is a ‘must-have’!” —Byron Metcalf, PhD, transpersonal psychologist and author of The Shaman’s Heart Meditation Training Program   “I am deeply moved by this new book by Sandra Ingerman. She is so loving and so gentle in her communication of profound principles of spiritual living. Her style is always so simple, clear, and yet profound. It nourishes our deep need for reconnecting with the Sacred and for having a line of communication open through ceremony to help us transmute our selves, transform our world, manifest our intentions, and make our dreams come true. There is SO much wisdom in this offering to guide us in ceremonial work.             “Sandra Ingerman just seems to have thought of everything we need to be aware of for virtually any kind of ceremony. It is a relatively small book, chock-full of useful ideas. There are suggestions on how to trust your own ceremonial genius—your own wisdom and creativity. She shows you how you can elegantly design and facilitate ceremonies that bring in light and a loving energy that is so beautiful that even the household pets like coming into sacred space.             “I found that part of the joy of reading this book is that it’s like reading sacred poetry, relaxing the soul and feeding the hungry heart with real bread. The author really doesn’t offer confining rules. She doesn’t want us to put ourselves, or the spirit world, or anyone or anything else in ‘boxes.’ We are empowered to open to the mystery. Based on decades of experience in creating ceremonies, she offers suggestions and guidelines for making our own powerful ceremonies.             “A big part of the genius of this book is it is not drawing on any indigenous tradition, rather we are encouraged and empowered to create sacred ceremonies that speak to our own time and place, and which come from our collaboration with the compassionate helping spirits. Great care for a new reader is taken in this book, showing them how to create beautiful, moving ceremonies for themselves. I found the reading of it to be as nourishing as bread: ‘Ceremony brings the sacred into everyday life.’ It’s a very lucid style of writing that lifts up the essence and reminds us, with our short attention spans, that we do well to craft simple ceremonies from the heart.             “Sandra Ingerman reminds us that we enter the dreamtime in sacred ceremony; we enter the space where intentions are planted like seeds, like dreams that will grow into actualities if we nourish them in ceremony. When something invisible happens in ceremony, it tends to flow into manifestation in a passage of some time. I give thanks to Sandra Ingerman for decades of work and devotion, her innovations, her humility, her groundedness, her compassionate teaching spirit, her joyous heart, and for this wonderful book.” —C. Michael Smith, PhD, psychologist, shamanic teacher, author of Jung and Shamanism in Dialogue, director of Crows Nest Center for Shamanic Studies International, and teaching member of the Cercle de Sagesse   “Shamanism is an ancient spiritual tradition in which shamans use their own body and mind to create a bridge between the personal world of form and the transpersonal world of spirit. They do this with ceremony, and when this bridge is formed, it allows the healing gifts and the power of the spirits to flow across that bridge and into our world. This is when the miraculous happens. Sandra Ingerman is a master shamanic teacher who reveals how performing ceremony may bring the sacred into our ordinary lives. Experiencing goodness and joy is one of our birthrights, and The Book of Ceremony is a gift, enabling us to open a line of connection between our self and the power of the universe to manifest healing and our soul’s desires in these times of change.” —Hank Wesselman, PhD, anthropologist and author of The Re-Enchantment: A Shamanic Path to a Life of Wonder, The Bowl of Light: Ancestral Wisdom from a Hawaiian Shaman, and the Spiritwalker Trilogy   “With my background in extreme religion, I was never really equipped nor empowered to be a prophet or leader of my own life, spiritually speaking. I was conditioned to be a repeat customer of organized religion, as well of ‘gurus,’ once I broke from religion. For the longest time, I had a fear that I was living life wrong. “Sandra Ingerman has done something remarkable to my life—she has in fact taught me through applicable guidance and direction (in her written work alone) how to be a prophet of my own life. One might say it is a horrible business model to empower your repeat customers to no longer need your services, but because you know she moves from a place of altruism, you will always keep coming back.” —Lance Allred, first deaf player in NBA history, inspirational speaker, TEDx star, and author of Longshot: The Adventures of a Deaf Fundamentalist Mormon Kid and His Journey to the NBA

I have just finished Sandra Ingerman's luminous new book, THE BOOK OF CEREMONY. If, like me, you think ceremonies and rituals have been watered down or forgotten altogether in today's society, this is the book for you. I have read a few of Sandra's other titles -- they're all wonderful, but I don't think anything has touched my heart as deeply as this one. Here you will learn ceremonies for significant life milestones: birth, death, beginning and ending relationships, and dozens of other rites of passage. I have adapted one such practice already and have found another that is perfect for my cohousing community. THE BOOK OF CEREMONY gets my highest recommendation.Burt Kempner, author of The Five Fierce Tigers of Rosa Martinez

Sandra's book is excellent. It appeals not just to shamanism, but to all beliefs. Some ceremonies are complex, some are always available, most are very simple yet powerful. If you with to memorialize a pet, or an annual plant, or temper the anger of a neighbor, there's a ceremony in Sandra's book you can use. She creates the basic framework and you can improvise form there. On the other hand Sandra chronicles complete ceremonies for so many of life's event. Heartily recommend it.Polomo, Mt Shasta

This is a book written by a brilliant mind that got stuck in the 1980’s. The author appears to be oblivious to what’s been going on in the realm of earth and nature based spiritualities since then. She presents ceremony that is largely comprised of pieces from Wicca, and other genres of Contemporary Paganism, and Native American Traditions slapped with - the very problematic in 2018 - label of “Shamanism.” And it’s presented as though it’s all new material! Ingerman has some substantial work behind her but, she’s late to the table with this one and her publisher never should have let it go to print. And then ... OMG the cover!!!??? Who the heck let THAT slide by and what were they thinking??!! Never mind. What has been seen cannot be unseen.

When you have more highlighted sections than white, you know the book is full of sacred content. I can't say enough about this book and i'm only through the first 2 chapters.

I have read all her books and find this one takes you deeper giving you examples of how to do ceremony at any age level. It is so good to see this book in print. Her teachings now brought to practical experiences we can do ourselves.

beautiful evocative reminder that ritual changes the mundane to the magic

Sandra inspires me as a Transformational Intuitive that guides people to find their True Selves. She reminds me to exonerate the practice of rituals and ceremonies and add them more frequently to my own Life and that of others. We all need to solidify our Lives in order to balance how our planet’s negative energies can devour and destroy our Love of the Good.

I found this book comforting. At times when I wish to mark an event with a ritual, I may be short on ideas that seem suitable. Sandra's book offers authentic yet reassuringly simple and genuine suggestions for honoring life's transition points and the shiftings of the natural world. Consulting the book feels like a way to become your own shaman or ceremonial leader as needed.
