Embrace the power of ritual with simple yet "powerful" (Kim
Chestney, author of Radical Intuition and founder of IntuitionLab)
practices that slow us down to honor and mark the real moments in
our lives--from the loss of a parent to the birth of a child, from
grieving a pet to celebrating coming out of the closet. Life has
many transitions: A baby is born. A child leaves for college. A
marriage. A divorce. A death. We all experience moments of profound
change, but what do we do to mark those moments? How do we become
mindful of these events and imbue them with purpose and meaning?
Could our lives be better, richer, and more resilient if we had
more practical resources and rituals to honor, sanctify, and make
sense of these transitions? Day Schildkret, artist and author
behind the international Morning Altars movement, believes that
what we need is ritual. Rituals are the rhythms and traditions that
give us a sense of stability in the face of uncertainty by
reminding us that there's always something we can do, say or make
that conjures awe, contentment, and gratitude. They give us a way
to acknowledge through our actions that, as life changes, we too
must change. Offering ways to make these moments special and
sacred, Hello, Goodbye teaches you to not fear uncertainty, but
instead participate fully and creatively in life's inevitable
changes, including: -Birth of a child -Moving and new homes
-Divorce -Empty nesting -Retirement -Death anniversary -Health
crises Containing over 75 hands-on ritual instructions, informed by
hundreds of interviews, and filled with beautiful illustrations,
inspirational story-telling, potent questions, and experienced
wisdom, Hello, Goodbye is "certain to become a forever reference
and treasured, faithful companion" (Kimbery Ann Johnson, author of
Call of the Wild and The Fourth Trimester) for life's many
milestones, perfect for those looking to find meaning in change and
embrace the transformative thresholds of our lives. Hello, Goodbye
is a "direct and moving" (Rabbi Jill Jammer, PhD, author of The
Jewish Book of Days: A Companion for All Seasons) guide we all need
to navigate life's uncertainties with grace, meaning, and
intention, perfect for fans of Krista Tippet, Priya Parker, and
Elena Brower.
