Rituals & Remedies Vol. 2 is an exploration of how we begin, endure, and end our days. The steam rising from a pot of water after five very long minutes. The crunch of mint between your fingers. A spoon dipped into honey for a nightly cup of tea. Maybe you warm a small space with two candles while the coffee brews. Maybe you tend a fireplace. Or a fire pit. Maybe you slice a persimmon and eat it from your favorite plate. Burn herbs. Steep them. Say a prayer or don’t. Who do you wake up beside, and what are your first words? Who do you gather with? Who do you miss?

This volume brings together writers from across the world, each offering a quiet glimpse into their days, their rituals, their remedies, their ways of being. For an extra layer of intimacy, we asked contributors to share the music they love and the grocery lists that shape their lives. Small details. Real ones.

This collection features writers from across the world who share a glimpse of their story. We are forever grateful for their contribution to the Plants & Poetry Journal.
