Read MoreRitual creates pathways of familiarity that help divert us from pathways of self-sabotage. Ritual paves avenues of restoration we can refer to in moments of upheaval. Ritual polishes the ice so we can work our way up to the triple axel without getting caught in a basic crossover.
Read MoreGrief carries us firmly and gently to the very core of our own vitality. Serves us spoonfuls of our own holy water.

The times in my life when I have been most happy, most alive are inextricably linked to processes of grief.
