This is a special issue of The Tradition of Living Beautifully, featuring an exclusive conversation, for paid Substack subscribers only, with Mallorie Vaudoise, author of Honoring Your Ancestors, the “Italian Folk Magic” blog, and co-host of the “Good Bones” podcast.
Mallorie and I discuss—
How we can talk about ancestral veneration in a non woo-woo way, making having a relationship with our ancestors an ordinary, accessible part of our lives.
Ways to use honoring our ancestors as a way to slow down and be present.
Using food and cooking as a way to connect to those who came before us and as a form of meditation.
How we can honor our ancestors in ways that don’t feel like another task on our never-ending to do lists.
And how we can incorporate the practice into our lives with more ease.
