The Book of Modern Ceremony
By Shari Dunbar Boyer

A soulful guide to bringing ritual, meaning, and connection back into everyday life.

In a world that often moves too fast, The Book of Modern Ceremony invites us to pause, gather, and honour the moments that shape our lives.

Drawing on ancient traditions and modern living, sociologist and ceremonialist Shari Dunbar Boyer offers a collection of meaningful, easy-to-follow ceremonies designed to reconnect us—with ourselves, with others, and with the rhythms of life.

Inside this book, you’ll discover:

• Over 30 accessible ceremonies and rituals for modern life
• Step-by-step guidance to create meaningful, personal experiences
• Rituals for life transitions, seasonal shifts, and personal growth
• Ways to deepen connection with family, community, and self

Ceremonies include:

• Life transitions such as moving home, menopause, and personal milestones
• Celebrations like birthdays, vow renewals, and family gatherings
• Seasonal rituals for solstices, equinoxes, and moon cycles
• Practices to honour everyday moments with intention

What makes this book special:

• Blends ancient ritual wisdom with contemporary life
• Simple, adaptable ceremonies—no prior experience needed
• Encourages creativity, reflection, and meaningful connection
• Written with warmth, depth, and practical clarity

A return to intentional living:

Ceremony reminds us that life is sacred—not just in the big moments, but in the quiet transitions and everyday thresholds. This book gently guides you back to that remembering.
