Helpful witchy tips for your daily life:
- for sleeping troubles... place an amethyst crystal and rose quartz under your pillow. drink chamomile or marigold tea 1-2 hours before bedtime. have a calming wind-down routine for nighttime, such as dimming the lights, doing your skincare and light stretching to soft music.
- if you have trouble focusing... put on some jazz music, classical music or lo-fi, brew a cup of green tea (calming) or black tea (energizing) and get to work. bonus points, frequency/meditation music works amazingly for longer periods of time.
- if lacking motivation or drive... wear a carnelian stone or tiger’s eye stone as jewelry, it helps with boosting your root and sacral chakras, thus improving drive, focus, ambition and confidence as well. works like magic for me, carnelian is my favorite stone for a reason.
- if lacking inspiration or creativity... wear a green chrysocolla bracelet and surround yourself with more green energy (nature, green color, working with the earth) to recharge your creativity.

Hold the door open for inspiration and motivation. Don’t fret and mull on what ifs and negatives. Instead leave the door open wide and sit on the porch, express gratitude for the things you have created in the past and invite a fresh breeze of creativity in by already stepping into the mindset. Open a sketchbook and doodle and scrawl your mind’s contents unto the page with no purpose or expectation in mind, write a list into your journal of the day’s random notes, start writing a single sentence for your writing project that sounds juicy & thrilling to your imagination. All too often we stifle our creativity because of anxiety, social pressure, judgement or self-consciousness - and of course that is not a fertile ground for our imaginations to thrive in. So just make sure the door is always open so your creative energy feels welcome and can flow freely.

You inspire others to grow by carving a path and lighting the way. You inspire others by following your inspiration. You motivate others to take action by taking action yourself.
By embodying our true selves, we shine our little light upon the world and make it easier for others to feel that there is a space for their path as well.
You lead by showing others how to lead themselves. Everything is connected in a magical, mystical way, trust in this interconnection. Trust in how everything connects.
How To: Abundance Meditation
Doing an abundance/affirmation meditation is simple and it’s something everyone deserves to know so you can attract more abundance into your life.
Start by finding a quiet place when you’re all alone, get comfortable, close your eyes and take a few deep breaths. First recite several gratitude affirmations as this sets the intention and mindset to one of prosperity + abundance, and then continue to positive affirmations based on your needs. Do this for a few minutes or as long as you like, and then follow it up by visualizing what you’d like to manifest, just see it unfold in your mind’s eye and how it makes you feel to have it.

Approaching every situation with the mindset of “how can I come out of this as a winner, how can I turn this situation to my advantage?” is a game-changer. It switches the whole focus from one of negativity & denying your own power (feeling overwhelmed, uncertainty, anxiety, what ifs) to one of positivity & ownership of your own power (this is how to make the best of the situation, this is how I gain x and y). It’s all about mindset.
I deserve to be rich in every way, I deserve to be surrounded by abundance of love and health, of wealth and happiness. I deserve to be happy and delighting in the bounty of this earth. I deserve to bask in abundance and so it is.

Prepare yourself a bubble bath with salt and essential oils, light some candles beside a glass of wine or cup of tea. Try out a jade roller massage on your face after applying almond oil and running the jade under icy cold water, pure pleasure. Invest in plain shea butter and delight in the buttery-soft skin it leaves like no other product can. Light some incense before sleep with dim light in the room and do some yoga stretches to ambient music in the background. Even better, there’s nothing like jazz music, a cup of hot tea and reading a deliciously good book after a long reading break.
What I mean to say is, spoil and pamper yourselves in all the ways you can! Make yourselves feel good. Make today all about you or schedule a You day to feel like the King or Queen that you are. There are also so many ways you can treat yourself without needing anything at all, it just starts with making the conscious choice to perform love acts in every small way you can. Little by little it heals the soul until you’re so full of it you’ll forget how it was to live in any other way.
You are so beyond prepared, capable and ready to become the very best of what you are meant to be, what you wish to achieve! You are so beyond equipped and qualified for all of that!!! My dear, you are IT, you can do it. And do not forget about your divine intuition telling you all you need to know about how to act next.
In whatever moment needed, step out of yourself, your current role, your current thoughts and small minded limitations, step out of your own mental boundaries. Know that it’s all a game, all an illusion, none of it matters in the infinity of time and space. On a smaller scale, we’re all human and mortal with flaws and fears and desires, but on the bigger scale we’re infinite. So open your eyes to your true infinite worth and step into your power. Embody your truest, most radiant, most powerful self.
How to Get (and Keep) Your Life Together 101
Here’s a quick masterlist of all the tips, hacks and advice that stuck with me from reading so many articles, videos and research. Feel free to ask me any questions, or add tips of your own. 💜
- Hydration: Make sure every day you stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water, green tea, black tea. You see this everywhere but it’s true. Just drinking water wil do wonders for your skin and your overall body health.
- Nutrition: Maintain a healthy diet by letting go of toxic “restrictive” diet culture and realizing that food is sacred fuel for your sacred body, so offer your body the best! Eat lots of vegetables, fruits, nuts and seeds; lots of wholefoods. Incorporate smoothies into your mornings for extra dose of vitamins. Practice mindful, conscious eating, be there in the moment when you are eating, taste the food, enjoy the experience of it. Meditate over your relationship with food and try to work through any unhealthy beliefs.
- Exercise: Pick one or multiple forms of exercise that suits your schedule, lifestyle and personality; whether it’s jogging twice a week, going to the gym daily or even just a fresh walk every evening. Pick what is suitable for YOU and keep it part of your life. DYI your own gym routine or hire a trainer; train at home or in the gym; whatever works best for you.
- Growth Mindset: Maintain a positive mindset that is always open and curious to learning new things, trying new skills and ever willing to improve itself. Redirect your attention from drama, gossip and toxic comparison beliefs to healthy ones; unfollow accounts online or delete all your social media if that’s what you need. Recreate yourself if that’s what you want. Focus on YOUR growth! Make a habit of reading new books, watching TedTalks, documentaries, etc. Look at educating yourself as a way to invest in yourself, a way to honor yourself. Maintain curiosity in your heart for the ways of the universe. Stay humble and graceful in the face of adversity, but never give up on your dreams, failed attempts are only lessons for improvement and the only true failure is giving up. As long as you keep going you’re still winning. Bonus tip: comparison is self harm, and a denial of your own power; so remember that nobody can be you and that’s a good thing. You can only be you, so make it count and honor yourself!
- Relationships: Don’t cling to relationships and don’t be afraid to lose people. Be your authentic self at all times, and do not be afraid to intimidate people or be too much! Those that matter don’t mind, and those that mind don’t matter. Know that the friends/partners that are meant for you, will stay or will find their way back to you. Be mindful of the dynamic in a relationship, and be self-loving enough to walk away from what is toxic, unhealthy, restrictive, disrespectful, etc. Forgive those that wronged you, but tolerate no mistreatment; you can forgive them from afar, but make sure they’re no longer a part of your life.
- Focus & Goals: Keep a journal and as frequently as you can, write down bullet lists of to do lists, goals, dreams, daily reflections, aspects of yourself to improve upon, positive affirmations, wishlist etc. - in other words, brainstorm all the things whirling around in your head regarding your own life. Remember all those things you’ve wanted to do? Bucketlists, reminders, curiosities, etc? Keeping a journal, staying focused on your goals, checking progress and practicing positive affirmations will transform your life.
- Fashion: Elevate your wardrobe to a whole other level by sitting down and figuring out what your style actually is. Play around in your journal by creating a collage of your favorite colors, textures, patterns, styles, outfit combos and accessories. Mix and match, figure out what your aesthetic is. Refine, polish, remove what doesn’t click. (You can find a bunch of videos on YT for organizing clothes and being effortlessly fashionable/put together.) When you reorganize your wardrobe according to the above, you can easily mix and match anything because your wardrobe makes sense and it’s already planned out. Bonus tip: do your laundry the same day every week (ie. Saturday) and do a wardrobe prep on Sundays for the upcoming week; so that at any moment you can be ready in five minutes looking perfectly polished, and avoid the whole ordeal of being stressed/rushed and not knowing what to wear.
- Skincare and haircare: Golden advice - invest in natural products/oils/ingredients instead of investing in brands. Why? Because otherwise you’re paying for a concept instead of actual health benefits for your body. Try natural soaps, oils (shea butter, coconut oil, argan, avocado, jojoba, rosehip, etc), and water extracts (rosewater, hazelwater) for toner. Coconut oil and argan oil is particularly famed for hairgrowth and shine. Castor oil as well helps hairgrowth, including for brows or lashes. Rosehip and shea heal discolorations, scars and marks. Do your research and try out what fits you, your skin will thank you later. I’ve been using natural products & oils for 9+ years and people always compliment how clear, smooth & glowy my skin is. Bonus tip: if you don’t use sunscreen already, try to incorporate it into your routine; just make sure it has gentle, non-harmful ingredients (for both yourself and the environment.
- Etiquette, manners, poise, posture: Watch videos, read books or listen to audiobooks about confidence, proper etiquette, leadership skills, how to make people listen when you speak, etc. There are things which are so intuitive, obvious and logical, and yet simply becoming aware of them and having the science of it explained will transform your perspective (and the way you carry yourself).
- Finances: Perform a monthly financial review to make sure you know where you are, what your budget is. Make a plan for backup funds, or savings for travels, or new tattoos, or a house, or whatever you want. It doesn’t have to be complicated, you can keep things simple by listing your expenses in five categories (Necessities, groceries, luxury, savings, free/remaining funds). Keep track of your expenses or habits, there are even apps that show statistics or analysis for easy use. The point here is to stay on top of your own finances: know how much are the monthly necessities (rent/mortgage/etc), know what has been payed and keeping receipts, knowing when things need to be paid, etc.
- Integrity: This means knowing yourself, having standards, knowing what your boundaries are, what you are willing and not willing to do. When you know yourself and know your worth, you won’t ever tolerate or accept anything less. Know what your principles, values, beliefs are and hold them firmly because it is what you stand for. At the same time, it is important to keep an open mind to growth and improvement, but not so much that any persuasive argument will change your mind. Hold your own, but be gracious to other perspectives. And through it all remember - only you know what’s right for you, what’s best for you. Literally nobody else but you can know what’s in your best interest!
- Efficiency & Improvement: This ties in with growth mindset but in a more practical way; make sure that you’re always leaving open space for improvement in your life, don’t ever just settle down/get stuck/let yourself sink into complacency. Know that you can always change anything! Make a habit of frequently reviewing aspects of your life (ex. via journaling) to see whether there’s anything you can make more easy, more efficient. Instead of spending hours grocery shopping, check out shops online where your favorite products can be home delivered in a snap. Instead of driving to a vet for your pet, have a call in. Setting up recurring payments for finances also counts. Literally any process or activity whereby you can automatize a service, delivery, payment, etc. will help you in the long run, so you can focus more on enjoying life, instead of wasting time with Trivial Adult Things.
