Ritual Yearbook, The

We all need to find connection and meaning in the midst of the fast paced world we live and rituals offer an easy and simple way to do this. In this 365 year-long exploration, Theresa Cheung offers daily practices to help us bring focus and attention to our lives for meaningful and achievable change. A ritual is any action we take that has meaning beyond its appearance; by giving an action intention it becomes 'sacred' and purposeful. The absence of significant ceremony in our lives has left us feeling disconnected, confused and alone Rituals and ceremony allow us to be present in the now, focus on the future and provide us with closure on the past, they return us to what matters. Drawing on science and psychology, Theresa Cheung's 365 non-denominational rituals will help anyone to transform their lives. Split into four sections, the book begins with 21 simple foundation rituals to help you ground your daily practice. The second and largest section is broken down into 4 areas: Body, Mind, Spirit and Heart. Each of these also contains 21 rituals, some simple and some more complex. Chose the area you feel you want to focus on and follow the rituals over 21 days or chose as you wish. The third section has a four week programme broken down week-by-week and the last section contains 21 closing rituals. For those wanting a year long programme the book can be used day-by-day or alternatively chose a ritual at random. Publisher: Watkins Paperback ISBN: 9781786782076 Publish Date: 08/10/2019
