Rituals are practices we use to mark a particular time, space, or transition as important, sacred, or worthy of memory, keeping us grounded and connected within a culture, nature, and/or the spiritual world. These activities both add and reinforce meaning in our lives, whether they are small and personal (such as lighting a certain candle every evening), or large and complex (such as celebrating a royal wedding or a religious festival). We can find a lot of value and reassurance in rituals, whether by creating our own or participating in ones created thousands of years ago.
It’s easy enough to pray when you’re in distress but continuing to pray even when your crisis has passed is like a sealing process, helping your soul hold tight to its good attainments.
