Mason Currey on creative rituals and routines, and what counts as rest

Episode 4

Welcome to Rest Easy with Ximena Vengoechea, a show about navigating ambition, work, and rest in our busy lives.

In our final episode of Rest Easy, we speak with writer and author Mason Currey. Mason is the author of several books, including Daily Rituals and Daily Rituals: Women at Work, and writes a popular newsletter, Subtle Maneuvers about creativity and ritual. In this episode, we talk about Mason’s early interest in researching great creatives’ routines and what keeps him coming back to the topic years later. We also explore the question of what “counts” as rest, and the parallels between creative rituals and rest rituals. To learn more about Mason, check out his website.
