## Resource

Are you sure you're not superstitious? Because you knock on wood and blow out birthday candles, and we're calling that out. This week we confess our own weird little superstitious rituals — knocking on wood, beads for readings, numbers that have to add up to 11 — and get into why humans do this stuff in the first place, whether any of it actually works, and where even WE draw the line.
