Sacred Moments Initiative
Putting the Heart and Soul Back into Healthcare
From the Executive Director
"Sacred moments are short spans of time in which people experience personal connection, powerful emotions, or spiritual qualities of transcendence and boundlessness. Sometimes referred to as ‘sudden intimacies,’ sacred moments can occur at times of crisis or grief and can connect people in unexpected and meaningful ways. These highly memorable moments, where time is described to ‘stand still,’ leave participants with a sense of joy, peace, and empathy for the others involved.
At the Sacred Moments Initiative, we strive to study and cultivate these moments. We want to help people create space - both internal and external - conducive to sacred moments."
