A ritual is a ceremony consisting of a series of actions performed according to a prescribed order. Rituals are not just related to religion or spirituality. We all have rituals for all parts of our lives. Your daily workout at the gym. Reading the newspaper with a cup of coffee every Sunday morning. The burial practices of Christianity, Judaism or Hinduism. The pattern you take going through the grocery store every week.
