Cultivating a Reading Practice: Turning Pages Into Ritual

In this episode, slow down, light a candle, and rediscover reading as a ritual rather than a race. Together, we’ll explore how to select books that truly matter to you, create seasonal or personal TBR lists, and even curate your own “personal canon” of works to return to over the years.You’ll also hear practical ideas for deepening your relationship with books—through marginalia, reading journals, or simply carving out intentional spaces and rhythms in your daily life. From “working copies” and “trophy editions” to playful ways of choosing your next read, this episode is full of inspiration for weaving literature into the fabric of who you are.If you’ve ever wanted to move from occasional reading to a steady, meaningful practice, this is your invitation to let words shape you—one ritual, one page, one season at a time.
