4. Rituals and Routines

Establishing a brewing routine can add structure to your day and create a sense of purpose. When I first started homebrewing, I set aside time every Sunday to brew. It was my time away from all the choas. Brewing gave me space to just be. 

Engaging in rituals, such as checking on your fermenting kombucha or bottling the finished product, can bring a calming rhythm to daily life. These repetitive actions can be meditative and grounding.
