@young/new Witches: Don't Get Caught Up In The What Type Of Witch Bs That People Are Obsessed With. Witches

@young/new witches: don't get caught up in the what type of witch bs that people are obsessed with. Witches don't get sorted into little schools or houses and that's it. All this "green witch, sea witch, etc" is extremely limiting and lacks any imagination. Witches from lots of cultures do all kinds of magic. Nobody just does plant magic or whatever bc that doesn't make any sense.

Really the only labels that describe your craft are religious/ cultural names (Hellenic, folk magic, hoodoo ) bc witchcraft incorporates so much of everything that trying to label it by elements and such just doesn't cut it.

Please recognize that this is not definitive. Not everyone can follow this, whether you have time between jobs or school or you don't have the spoons for it. THIS DOES NOT MAKE YOU ANY LESS OF A WITCH. While I recommend some type of scheduled practice, tailored to your style, I know it's not right for everyone.

Meditation ideas for those who can’t sit still ✌️

Not everyone (me) can sit still and a lot of people (also me) find it hard to center themselves before a ritual or spell by just sitting and thinking. Here are some ideas I use when I find conventional reflection is not an option:

Count numbers up to either a target or until you feel content (I have been known to write on my leg I would suggest use paper)

Rip some paper or an index card as much as possible (use old paper that’s already been written on)

Run it out 🏃🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️

If the weather is bad I will go outside and just shake or dance for as long as my bare feet can handle it, I come in feeling new and absolutely ready to go

Lay on the ground like a starfish and try to stretch your body as wide as it goes

Cook or bake something 🥘

Please add more ideas I love having choices when I want to practice but can’t pull myself to focus! I hope this post helped someone 💕
