Finding Comfort and Meaning in Rituals
We’ve all spent a lot of time at home in the last year, and whether intentionally or not, we’ve developed routines and rituals to keep us grounded in our day-to-day activities.

If you’ve been working from home these past couple of weeks, then you may have noticed how much harder it is to stay focused and organized. It can be challenging to separate your personal life from your work life, and oftentimes, it feels like the days have all meshed into one long and blurry Groundhog day.
