How can my family be healthy and happy?

Routines & Rituals

Healthy, happy families tend to have routines and rituals they follow. For example, they have family traditions such as Thanksgiving, or a favorite meal on a family member's birthday. These routines and rituals are important to all family members because they help the member feel a part of a larger system, offer security, and build self-esteem.
