It’s hard to be a spoonie witch in learning. I haven’t practiced anything in a while…

It’s hard to be a spoonie witch at all, not to mention you’re still learning the ropes!

I try to incorporate little witchy things into my everyday life, so I feel less rusty when I have the spoons to practice. Here’s a bit of what my schedule looks like, I’m on a normie schedule right now due to work but it’s kind of in order of when you wake up/start your day:

Morning:

  • Make hot tea, or plop a teabag in a glass of water for iced tea later. If I have the spoons I’ll do this with cold water.
  • Whisper some intentions for the day into the tea, offer the first sip to a deity if that’s your thing.
  • Draw a tarot card of the day/week. I like doing one’s for the week if I’m super sick and can’t handle a daily card. Don’t feel pressured to figure out why you pulled that card right away, you have all day!
  • I love lighting a candle or incense in the morning, but I don’t usually have time.
  • I love scrolling through tumblr and getting witchy ideas while I wake up too!

Driving to work:

  • Drinking the rest of/the second cup of tea. Tea is life.
  • I speak gratitude to things while driving. “I’m grateful I woke up today.” “I’m grateful I can drive to X instead of walking” “I’m grateful for the trees” “I’m grateful for tea”. Whatever you want, but I think there’s power in finding something to be grateful for.
  • Play music that makes you feel powerful.
  • I also like putting some drops of essential oil into the diffuser in my car, different types for different moods/intentions.

At work/afternoon:

  • I’m lucky enough to have a job teaching in the forest so I try to find little moments to enjoy my surroundings and the life around me! I’m too busy for anything else.

Evening:

  • I try to sage cleanse when I get home/off work to release the energy of the day and allow myself to have a life outside of work.
  • I like to incorporate kitchen witchery into making my dinner and prepping my lunch.
  • I cut out a window of time where I’m settling down (technology free) before bed, and use that as a time to do witchy things. Lighting candles/incense, leaving offerings to deities, drawing sigils, do a tarot spread, reading witchcraft books, releasing energy, etc.

Bedtime:

  • Enchanted sleepytime tea!
  • Crystals for easy/pain free sleep under the pillow.

ANDDDD start the process over again. This is obviously very specific to my needs/energy levels and my summer schedule, how I operate the rest of the year is different! But hopefully this gives you some ideas!

I also have a surplus of spoonie witch specific posts, you can find the masterpost here. It’s a bit out of date but you can search “spoonie witch” on my blog for the rest. Hope this helps!

Mouse, you are the empress of spoonie witchcraft 😍

spoonie witch self-care tips

la-petitefille:

– meditate on the thought that there is no “falling behind,” only moving forward at a pace all your own

– breathe in the fresh air from your window, study a flower’s petals (even if you don’t feel up to going outside and it is simply a photograph of one); look at the sky – all things that may seem small, but are really so big

– allow yourself to live by a positive mantra each day: “i may not be as active as those that i see, but the magick inside me gives all that i need”

– think about how much magick is constantly all around us, even when you feel like you’re not currently practicing it

– remind yourself that even the smallest accomplishment is a feat, and that you should feel proud of each one
