Day Schildkret: Infusing Recovery with the Power of Rituals
“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.”
How can rituals transform your recovery journey? Day Schildkret, an author, artist, and teacher, believes they hold the key to grounding and meaning. In this episode of 'The Way Out', Charlie and Jason chat with Day about his new book, 'Hello, Goodbye: 75 Rituals for Times of Loss, Celebration, and Change'. While not exclusively written for the recovery community, the book's insights are profoundly relevant for anyone on a sobriety path.
Day explains how simple acts like lighting a candle or planting something can add significant meaning to our lives and help us stay mindful. He emphasizes that it's our actions that change our thinking and emotions, not the other way around—a concept that resonates deeply with many recovery programs. The episode dives into why rituals are more than just routines; they are intentional acts that connect us with ourselves and our communities.
By engaging in rituals, we can express emotions healthily and share our experiences with those who support us. Whether you're new to recovery or looking to deepen your journey, Day's approach offers practical ways to stay grounded and connected.
