Rituals are about creating space in time, in our surroundings, and in our own minds. They give us a sense of predictability while still leaving room for creativity and flexibility. Something I already understood during my teaching career, where routine was the backbone of every successful day. When I began my second act as a writer, I leaned on that knowledge and shaped it into something new.
I crafted a morning ritual of my own. Nothing too dramatic, just a simple structure that supported my daily work.
