Shinto in Everyday Japanese Life

Shinto is the native religious tradition of Japan. I think it’s easy to see visual signs of it throughout Japan, from the shrines (jinja) to the gates (torii). But what I was interested in finding out was what Shinto practices can be found in everyday Japanese life that aren’t so visually obvious. To help me answer my curiosity, I asked my local Shinto expert and naturalized Japanese, David Chart.
