PILGRIMAGE ESSENTIALS
A Sacred Journey has a library of blog posts and podcast episodes to offer guidance and practical steps as you seek to practice pilgrimage at home and abroad.

Below are some of my most frequently recommended books and films on pilgrimage both as practice and metaphor, as well as my favorite collections of blessings and poems to highlight the path along the way.
