Hello, Goodbye

Embrace the power of ritual with simple yet "powerful" practices that slow us down to honor and mark the real moments in our lives--from the loss of a parent to the birth of a child, from grieving a pet to celebrating coming out of the closet.Life has many transitions: A baby is born. A child leaves for college. A marriage. A divorce. A death. We all experience moments of profound change, but what do we do to mark those moments? How do we become mindful of these events and imbue them with purpose and meaning?
