In recent years, both Witchcraft and mental health topics have sparked an interest in many thanks to social media. For many practitioners, self-care and healing also comes in the form of Witchcraft. In this blog, we'll be exploring the connection between the two.
Empowerment through rituals
One of the main beliefs in Witchcraft is personal power and agency. Many feel like they are reclaiming a sense of control over their lives or situations in which they feel powerless and distressed, through rituals, spells and intention setting.
Connecting with Nature
A lot of Witchcraft is connected to nature - from smaller parts like Sage and Palo Santo to nature-related deities. Many practitioners hone their craft by gardening, spending time outdoors and communicating with nature. Surrounding yourself with nature can help in reducing stress, anxiety and other mental health issues which makes it essential to a self-care routine.
Improving Intuition
Witchcraft helps in encouraging people to hone and trust their intuition. Did you know that by honing your intuition, you can navigate your emotions better which in turn helps you make decisions that align with your higher self with a clearer mind? You can tap into your intuition better by meditating and journaling so that you can gain clarity on your thoughts and feelings.
Cultivating a Community
Many times, Witchcraft is practiced in a community (join our telegram community here: https://t.me/thelovewitchsg). Being in a community can bring a sense of belonging and support.
