“Norton lauds the capacity of ritual to infuse quotidian acts with a sense of consequence…enjoyable fare…abounds in recommendations for ways we readers may add the emollient of ritual to our own lives.”
—Wall Street Journal“Amiable and diverting…offers a reason for cautious optimism: in a disenchanted world, attention to tiny rituals can clear a little space for everyday magic.”
—The Guardian“The Ritual Effect isn’t your typical, preachy self-help manual. In fact, Norton has no interest in telling you which rituals are worth adopting—that part is up to you. Instead, the book breaks down the true meaning of rituals and positive ways they can impact your relationships, personal and professional lives, and sense of self, reframing the concept as something much fresher, more special, and more accessible than you may have once thought.”
—SELF Magazine“Norton’s fascinating The Ritual Effect encourages us to experiment with, explore, and discover rituals to help transform the ordinary into the extraordinary…lively…may be just what the doctor ordered.”
