Tina Marie Pizel Sheil

In today’s fast-paced and complex world we find ourselves drifting further and further away from the things that bind us together as communities. Rituals provide us with a way of sustaining ties, marking significant moments and reinforcing belonging and identity. They remind us of the interconnectedness of all of life and offer us a time-out from our every-day routine, allowing us to connect with ourselves, nature and spirit. The beauty of the experience lies in the participation, the togetherness, the shared reverence and collective joy.

Tina Marie Pizel Sheil is a ritualist, anthropologist, performer, community facilitator, environmental activist and award-winning marriage celebrant. She is passionate about the power of community, the protection of Mother Earth and the interconnectedness of all things.
