During these times of heightened emotions, it’s important to take care of our mental health. Here are a few witchy self-care tips to help during times of stress and anxiety:
1. Commune with nature: Spending time in nature is not only essential for your craft, but it’s also a form of self-care. Let go of your worries and allow them to drift away with the wind. Take in the smells of the earth and the changing seasons, reminding yourself that as things change, so will your circumstances.
2. Take a bath or soak your feet: Connecting with your body through a bath or foot soak can help you let go of stress and negativity. Adding herbs, flowers, and salts to your bath water can add fragrance and their respective powers to your self-care routine.
3. Meditate: Meditating can help clear your mind and bring peace. You don’t have to sit quietly and empty your mind; simply being still can be a form of meditation.
4. Do a tarot reading: Pulling tarot cards can help you gain insight into your situation and view your problems from a new perspective. You can choose a card to emulate and draw on its power to help you.
5. Practice kitchen magic: You don’t have to be an experienced cook to prepare a healthy and magical meal. Simply placing intentions and adding herbs and spices that carry the energy of love, harmony, and peace can bring those traits into your meal.
Remember that self-care is essential for balance, and it’s okay to put yourself and your mental health first. You cannot give to others or yourself if you are not feeling good, so be mindful of how you care for yourself.
