When you don’t feel spiritual, use the rituals to help or find someone such as a mentor or friend who can help you. In those moments start with small things that are meaningful. There are so many different ways to connect to God and it can take in many forms.

P.S. (for your mom!) Don’t forget to have fun. Take joy from the good moments to carry you through the shaky ones. When needed, give yourself a time out.
Sometimes it’s more about slowing down and working on a connection rather than “doing” all the time.
Teaching your kids to cook or bake at a young age is messy but it truly pays off.
