The Most Overlooked Self-Care Routines You Might Be Missing Out On
There are many ways to practice self-care, and many types to choose from. Self-care is about more than pampering your body, eating healthy foods, or exercising.

Self-care can help us battle depression, obesity, and so much more.

Root & Ritual: A Guide to Green Witchcraft. Content Warning.
The Whispering Path of Green Witchcraft Green witchcraft, often referred to as garden witchery, herbal magic, or nature-based craft, functions less as a codified system and more as a lived relationship with the natural world. Practice begins with attentiveness rather than instruction. Bare feet meeting soil, wind stirring branches, and water moving across stone offer lessons that cannot be learned through books alone. Knowledge develops through patience, observation, and repeated engagement with land and season. Magic emerges through familiarity and trust rather than spectacle.
