#low energy witchcraft
Hey psst…
Use the cake mix that comes in a box. Use jarred pasta sauce. Use preseasoned meat. The correspondences are still there. Save your energy my dear.
I saw a post somewhere not too long ago that said “Don’t apologize for doing/buying things that make life easier for you.”
You do not need to earn your place in the world through struggle. If there are things you can do or get that help you and they are readily available GET THEM!!!! That way you can use your time and energy for things that are good for you which includes things that just make you happy!
This goes for more than just witchcraft.
Let’s be honest here. Most of us bedridden peeps don’t have an awesome bed setup like this, and our nature exposure can be limited. However, here’s some tips and tricks to staying connected to nature while stuck in bed, with contributions from myself (@heatherwitch),@thewitchofthenorse,@spooniewitches,@persephoneandthepomegranates&@theepagangrace!
- Open a window, or crack the curtains
- Hang rainbow prisms in your window
- Keep a houseplant nearby
- If regular houseplants require too much energy: Try cacti, succulents, lucky bamboo, or spiderplants!
- Hang nature/forest/plant artwork around
- Get air freshener or room spray that reminds you of the outdoors
- Watch a nature documentary or shows with people exploring nature – check out nature (photography) videos on Netflix for calming videos
- Listen to forest soundscapes [X]
- Set a nature scene as your screensaver
- Keep a jar of soil around
- Talk with any nature deities you work with
- Follow nature blogs
- Get sheets, blankets, or pillowcases with leafy designs, flower designs, etc.
- Get a star map app on your phone to be more connected to the night sky
- Have a vase of flowers (real or fake)
- Keep crystals around that remind you of nature (Moss agate, petrified wood, onyx, selenite, agate geodes, etc.)
- Use sigils designed to connect you to nature
- Use air conditioning or a fan to make it less stuffy in your room
- Read and write poetry about nature
- Press plants/flowers or hang dried herbs by your bed
- Spend some time looking outside of your window
- Burn a nature scented candle or incense (Irish moss, myrrh, frankincense, opium, and lavender)
- Use astral travel or dream magic to get to outdoor areas
- Watch livestream videos of outdoor areas
- Make a sachet of grass, oak bark (or whatever tree you like), quartz, and salt. Hang it near your bed.
With help from others:
- Get someone to collect rainwater for you, and use it to wash your face
- Ask a friend to take some pictures of cool places they go in nature and send them to you
- Have someone collect rocks/plants/feathers etc. from each day and bring them back for you
- Have someone pick wildflowers for you
- Drink some herbal tea
- Have someone you trust harvest wild edibles/berries for you – or at least bring fresh fruits and veggies!
- Skype or video chat with someone while they’re outside
- Take the scenic route/detour to some natural areas the next time you need a car ride
