Shedding Old Skins: A Name and Pronoun Release Ritual *in-person!*

Are you ready to release a name, a pronoun, or an old identity? Whether you've changed your labels recently or long ago, this ritual is designed to welcome you across the threshold. In ritual, we will honor who we have been, release what we no longer are, and embrace that which is still unfolding.

Date: Friday, September 18th

Event: 6 - 8 PM PST

Location: Seagrape Apothecary - 2823 NE Sandy Blvd, Portland, Oregon 97232

Eli Lawliet, The Gender Doula, will lead an intimate group through the process of reflecting on all that previous names, pronouns, or identity labels held for them.

We will honor these experiences, and allow ourselves to feel gratitude for all that they held. We will make space for the grief of change and the struggle of transformation. In ritual, we will release these old words, and wash them away. Then, we will call in our dreams, desires, and intentions for our new labels, pronouns, and names. Together, we will welcome in our new selves, and experience the joy of our becoming.

In preparation for the workshop, please gather the following items:

• A pen and paper for note-taking
• Snacks and drinks for nourishment!
• Anything else you need to feel cozy & present
