Episode 23 - Ritual

In Ritual we review the recent self-help book ‘The Power of Ritual’, and ask how is tech shaped by ritual? And rituals changed by tech? With companies like Headspace, WeCroak and SoulCycle, how is spirituality commodified, and how do we notice it happening? What are the rituals we have gained and lost in lockdown? Plus we talk about self-help, self-care, and rest as resistance.
