introduction
The beauty of it is that all the steps you use at home for your bedtime routine can be turned into rituals. They can develop and change, just as we all grow and change.
Sometimes you can enjoy a long extended bedtime that lasts much longer with each of the rituals. That's the beauty of rhythm and rituals, they are not rigid, but should flow.
