The Power of Ritual in Recovery with Day Schildkret | The Way Out Podcast Episode 278
In this edition of The Way Out, we’ve got an exceedingly illuminating and enlightening interview with Author, Artist and Teacher Day Schildkret who’s new book Hello, Goodbye: 75 Rituals for Times of Loss, Celebration, and Change though not written exclusively for the Recovery Community is nonetheless extremely relevant to those of us who are in Recovery. Rituals are an extremely practical way to attach tangible meaning to significant events and to add meaning to daily life through attaching that activity or event with a specific act like preparing a meal, burning something, or even doing something as seemingly simple like lighting a candle. The magic in ritual is that it’s rooted in the idea that it’s action that changes our thinking and emotions not the other way around which is so eloquently expressed by one of my most beloved Recovery sayings – We can’t think our way into right living, we must act or way into right thinking. Day and I talk on why ritual is a valuable exercise and why it’s so completely compatible with many Recovery programs and practices. Plus we discuss the difference between routine and ritual and highlight some easy rituals you can implement into your recovery repertoire so listen up.
