I have committed to creating one ritual or action per week from now for the duration of the semester. I begin the practice of ritual making from an inexperienced and inhibited place. Making rituals and talking about spirituality makes me uncomfortable, but this is also exciting. I feel clumsy and out of place and so somehow that means this is the right path. To begin this journey I am learning from Jane Batten and reading her book ''Power From Within: A feminist guide to ritual-making''. She gives step be step instructions for crafting your own rituals including how to plan and structure a ritual, examples for each stage of the ritual and tips around specific ceremonies.

'''Deep Listening Practice'''

Deep Listening is a process and a tool to aid in conscious listening. Developed by musician Pauline Oliveros this is a practice to expand our perception of sounds out into the environments around us, out into the 'space/time continuum of sound' and through this expansion to be connected with the environment.

Deep listening practice consists of energy work, body work, breathe exercises, vocalising, listening and dream work. Working from the book ''Deep Listening: a composers sound practice'' by Oliveros I am exploring Deep Listening as a technique to develop connection with rivers.

This is is also linking with work I am doing around soundscapes and recording the sounds of the river as a way of listening- with, being-with and making-with the river.
