The Becoming Podcast | Season 5; Episode 3 | Day Schildkret on how to create rituals that honour times of loss, celebration and change
Manage episode 366380049 series 3485142
Welcome to the third episode of the 2023 season of the Becoming Podcast!
On this month's show, I had the great pleasure of having a conversation with Day Schildkret. I was first introduced to Day's work many years ago when a friend recommended I check out his book, Morning Altars. Now, Day has written Hello Goodbye, a "recipe book" of rituals, that shares wisdom about how we can more meaningfully honour the hellos, goodbyes and other transitions in our lives.
Here’s some of what Day and I talked about in this episode:> Two massive catalyzing moments that Day experienced in one year, and the choice we have to make meaning of the threshold moments in our lives – or not.
> The key components that need to be a part of every ritual in order for it to be successful.
> The intangible, magical qualities of ritual and how we in our culture are inclined to "assassinate mystery with answers," rather than allowing the mystery of ritual to unfold.
> The importance of having our rituals witnessed, and how to choose good witnesses.
And those are just the highlights! I hope you enjoy listening to this episode as much as I enjoyed recording it!
