Vancouver’s spirituality embodies outdoor rituals in sacred places

Step Magazine low-res

 

Trained as a hard-nosed journalist, I published my first media feature about spiritually related issues in 1991, in Vancouver, BC’s now-defunct Step magazine. For me, this revelation of hidden outdoor rituals felt like crossing a significant threshold. Would I lose credibility and face ridicule as a news professional?

For the first time, I was sharing publicly my interest in ceremonies that honour the earth, spirit, and First Nations traditions. It was both a vulnerable and empowering move. More than two decades later, my attendance at such events has become commonplace.
