The Magic of Everyday Ceremony

In THE MAGIC OF EVERYDAY CEREMONY, Winifred Sippel gives a personal account of her exploratory journey into ceremony. Ceremony, the author comes to realize, is more than a formal way of celebrating special occasions. It also can be a spontaneous event, springing forth from moments of joy, sadness, worry or wonder in daily existence. "Even the shortest of ceremonies with a participant list of one," she writes, "can put us in touch with the wider reality embracing us, help to heal emotional wounds, strenghten our resolve, and grant us extraordinary experiences on the most ordinary of days." This is an inspiring and practical travel guide for those who are meandering down unpaved inner roads, seeking to bring more ceremony into their lives and thereby reconnect to the magical in themselves and in life around them.
