Some things you can add to your tea, as a witch

🍓 Berries - There’s nothing like a hot cup of camomile tea with a few fresh blueberries. Blueberries = Protection // Raspberries = Protection & Love // Strawberries = Love & Luck // Blackberries = Protection, Healing & Money

🍯 Honey - Adds that extra bit of sweetness and honey is great for love and binding. Green tea with a little honey would be the perfect start for a self-love spell or ritual.

🥛 Milk - I like to use almond milk. Almonds are great for fertility, money and luck spells. It also taste really good! I find taste best in black tea.

🍋 Lemon - Tastes great in green tea. Lemon is great for purifying and cleansing in spells and rituals. Would be an awesome tea to enjoy next time you do a cleansing meditation for your chakras.

🎄 Cinnamon - This one makes me think of winter and Yule but it taste so good. Especially when you pair it with a little bit of honey. Cinnamon is most commonly used in witchcraft related to healing, love, money and happiness.

🌿 Peppermint - It’s an acquired taste, for sure, but it’s very yummy in most teas and can help relieve nausea, gas and stomach cramps.

🥄 Ginger - Another that’s an acquired taste. It’ll definitely add a zing to your tea but it can help with flu symptoms and nausea. Used in witchcraft to help “speed things up” or “add passion” to spells.

Hello witches, since Ostara is upon us cleaning and cleansing our lives and starting anew is in order. I decided to share a small list of how to minimize waste (and save money) that you can implement in your life to keep yourself organized and keep your pantry/fridge clean:

Plan your meals prior to grocery shopping to avoid impulse buys and overbuying.
Store your herbs wrapped in paper towels to keep them dry and fresh longer.
Plan to bring leftovers for lunch.
Make swaps in recipes by using what you already have in your pantry and fridge.
Take inventory of your pantry, refrigerator, and freezer before you go grocery shopping.
If you have a deep freezer or a large pantry, keep a running list of things you store in them, so you can be sure to use them and not over buy.
Store pantry goods in airtight containers to keep them fresh for as long as possible.
Compost any scraps when you cook.
Avoid clutter in your pantry, refrigerator, and freezer so you can see-and use-what you have.
Freeze any fruits or vegetables that seem on the verge of spoiling to preserve them. You can use these items for smoothies or soups later.

Stay positive, stay happy, and out with the old and in with the new 💚
