Religion & Spirituality. Self-Improvement. Sociology. Nonfiction. HTML: Casper ter Kuile, a Harvard Divinity School fellow and cohost of the popular Harry Potter and the Sacred Text podcast, explores how we can nourish our souls by transforming common, everyday practices�??yoga, reading, walking the dog�??into sacred rituals that can heal our crisis of social isolation and struggle to find purpose�??a message we need more than ever for our spiritual and emotional well-being in the age of COVID-19. "After half a decade of research and hundreds of conversations with people around the country, I am convinced we are in the midst of a paradigm shift. That what used to hold us in community no longer works, and that the spiritual offerings of yesteryear no longer help us thrive."�??Casper ter Kuile What do Soul Cycle, gratitude journals, and tech breaks have in common? For ter Kuile they offer rituals that create the foundation for our modern spiritual lives. We are in crisis today. Our modern technological society has left too many of us�??no matter our ages�??feeling isolated and bereft of purpose. Previous frameworks for building community and finding meaning no longer support us. Yet ter Kuile reveals a hopeful new message: we might not be religious, but that doesn't mean we are any less spiritual. Instead, we are in the midst of a paradigm shift in which we seek belonging and meaning in secular practices.

With wisdom and endearing wit, ter Kuile's call for ritual is ultimately a call to heal our loss of connection to ourselves, to others, and to our spiritual identities.

I decided to read this book because I love the HPST podcast and have learned much from it. I gleaned a little from the book, and it did put me in an introspective state a couple of times, but I dunno… I just didn’t love it. (

This was really lovely, and I truly enjoyed listening to it. Now in these Covid times, it’s harder to see how community can be created even though it’s needed more than ever. It’s given me a lot to think about as far as ways to incorporate the sacred into daily life. (

Author Casper ter Kuile walks his readers through the process of finding spiritual direction, and how you can turn everyday rituals into more intentional and meaningful practices. While this book was written pre-COVID19, it couldn't have been released at a better time. Many of us are struggling to find a sense of ritual and routine in a world that seems almost unrecognizable.

His writing is approachable and I loved the reminder that we might already be doing some of this already...and we might just need to become a bit more intentional. Rituals don't need to be complicated, but rather as long as you include these three elements, intention, attention, and repetition...most anything can become a spiritual practice in your own day to day life.

I love this practical approach that is clear, encouraging, and filled with relatable wisdom. It is a quick read that will leave you with an actionable plan to find more connection and intentionality in your own life. You can read this and other book reviews at genthebookworm.com

Thank you to NetGalley and Harper One for the gifted copy. (
