I have not implemented the "rituals" magic as the author offers us to perform for 21 days. I do not think it useful to take over a pebble, in the evening before going to bed, to say "thank you." These "rituals" are a way of helping to remember the gratitude every day. Everyone is free to practice them daily, but in my opinion it should not be obvious.
Having read "The Secret" by the same author, a book beautiful in its presentation as well as for the cover used for writing and making it a "precious" book, "The Magic" has a nice blanket of first and writing the title is highlighted. The font used for writing the book is simple and normal, same for the presentation. This makes it a book to look normal and not "precious" as that of the book "The Secret".
