One of my favorite rituals is to prepare a bath to help uplift my energy. I have to say this winter took a toll on me as far as inspiration and motivation was concerned. The cold and dreary weather kept me in a rut and needed to see the beauty in things once again and of course draw inspiration from it.
I chose a variety of ingredients for this bath, focusing on protection, passion and movement.
Protection is important because at times we may have a lack of inspiration due to the criticisms of others and the negative self talk that usually follows. So it’s important to protect your energy from those types of people or things that causes self doubt. Passion never dies, it may sit idle or dormant, but when you’re passionate about something, it never fades. There are times when you need to reignite the passion of your dreams and realize why you were so passionate about it in the first place. Movement is also important as it gets things moving and flowing through the universe. A stagnant aura is where nothing gets moving and seems as though things are not manifesting.
