| Annotation | Rituals can give us a foundation, that sense of stability needed as the daily challenges and opportunities that confront us are tackled. Rituals must be grounded in understanding developed through particular attention to the meaning of the ageing process in the context of the life span. The purpose of this article is to discuss the meanings of rituals, and to present a simple method for creating rituals that can add meaning to older people's lives. (KJ/RH). |
