ritual

A ritual is a repeated action or ceremony that's often done in the same way every time. It can be something as simple as making coffee in the morning.

When people think of rituals, they might think of big events like weddings or funerals, but actually, we all have personal rituals that help us feel more comfortable and connected to our daily lives. For example, some people start their day by meditating or saying a prayer, while others always eat breakfast at the same time or in the same spot. Even small habits like brushing your teeth twice a day or making your bed as soon as you get up can be considered rituals because they're actions we do regularly and often without thinking about it.
