Connecting with your spirit guides

Hello, before I go on and about the information here, I just want you to know that I am sharing knowledge coming from a book called “The Witches Way”, published by Leanna Greenaway and Shawn Robbins :) It’s particular penchant is mainly Wiccan, but the books purpose it serves is a guide to modern-day witchcraft. I’m here to divulge information for our fellow beginner witches, who are still educating through their practice and journey, just like the majority of the witches that mentors and teaches. Although, this posts purpose is probably not aimed to how to start getting into your spiritual journey, but it could be something you’d want to learn later on. I hope you understand. But of course, I’ll post the essentials about how to start and where to start. Keep on learning little witchlings!! <33

Your guide will never want to frighten you, so it is unlikely that they will suddenly appear before your eyes in the cold light of day. To reach a successful connection, you must be prepared to experience a deeper level of consciousness. It can take a lot of practice to perfect, and only when you are at an advanced state in the meditative process can you begin to see visions.

These will usually occur when you are in the middling stage between sleep and wakefulness or in the moments before you wake up. You might also want to keep a motepad and pen next to your bed, as it is common to be told relevant information in dream sleep.

From Leanna Greenaway/Shawn Robbins, „Over the years and with a lot of practice, I have mastered the art of connection. For me, it’s like looking at a screen, a bit like a video recording. The background is black and the images appear with gold edges. The pictures move like they would in a video and last anywhere between one and three minutes. Prior to the visions, I sometimes hear a ringing sound, a bit like tinnitus but not as annoying. This is when I know my soul is turning into a higher frequency and I have finally connected.”

Read on for simple tips and steps to help you achieve a connection with your spirit guide

Items to have nearby

Crystals are very good to dot around the house, as they balance the energies in a room and can also help you to ground yourself. The seven crystals below are good if you want to promote successful meditation. I recommend that you house these stones somewhere in the bedroom. There is no need to spend a fortune on them when purchasing; small, polished versions, or tumble stones, can work just as well as large, more-expensive pieces. The choice is yours.

Angelite , used for summoning guides and angels

Amethyst , a calming stone sed to enhance psychic ability and meditation

Clear quartz , amplifies healing energy; known as the master healing stone

Rose quartz , good for relieving stress and tension; restores the aura by replacing negative energy with positive energy, boosts a live vibration

Black tourmaline , a ground stone that connects the Earth with the human spirit; aligns with chakras

Aventurine , energises the Heart Chakra for wellbeing and emotions

Carnelian , improves concentration during meditation

Mindful meditation

People begin with a series of meditation techniques when first trying to connect to their spirit guides. Before embarking on any spirit communication, it is imperative that you meditate for at least thirty minutes.

Lots of people find it hard to meditate for thirty minutes, but once you get the hang of if, it’s very easy. Those of you who have researched meditation will know there are hundreds of ways to get into a meditative state. There is also a wealth of information online that can help you find the right method for you.

If you choose to perform your meditation during the waking hours, select a crystal and hold it in your hand. If you want to use all of them in your meditation, sit and space the stones in a circle around the base of the chair you’re using or on the floor, should you choose to go without a chair.

If you hope to meditate during your sleeping hours, situate the stone(s) either under the bed or next to wherever you are sleeping. Make sure the house is quiet and sit or lie in the lotus position (sitting with legs crossed and hands on knees) as depicted in some books just make sure that you are cozy, snug, and completely relaxed. People find lying in the fetal position, under the covers, in their bed the best position. You might prefer to lie on your back or sit upright; it’s completely up to you!

First, concentrate on every part of your body, starting with your feet. Relax the feet, focusing on each toe being completely floppy, then work up the body to the ankle, calf muscles, and so fourth. Your aim is to be totally still, allowing yourself to become calm and tranquil. When you get to the area below the waist, hold a pelvic floor exercise for ten seconds, then clench your buttocks for a few seconds and relax. When you get to the top part of your body, raise your shoulders up toward your neck for five seconds before releasing them. You will feel a tingling sensation as they fall back to their usual position. Take your time. By the time you reach your facial muscles, you should be feeling extremely relaxed. Second, breathe steadily, either through your nose or mouth — whichever is most comfortable. Take a deep, slow breath inward and then exhale slowly. Repeat this for a few minutes or until you start to feel weightless. Clear your mind. Behind your closed eyes, focus in the darkness you see. See if you can pick out any shapes or lights.

Ask questions

At this stage, you should be in a meditative state, so now is the time to ask your guides for information. In your mind, ask your guide a series of questions, focusing on each question for a few minutes.

„I would like my guide to visit me. Are you there? Can you show yourself to me?

You might see patterns and shapes behind your eyes or feel a strange sensation of belonging. The experience is different for everyone. If you don’t feel anything, don’t be disheartened. Remember, some guides will not show themselves to you while uou are awake and might wait until a time when you are asleep. They know you better than you know yourself and may think that you are not ready to receive them in a conscious state.

„Please show me your gender. Are you male, female, or nonbinary?”

At this point, you must tune in physically and trust your inner thoughts and instincts. Imagine you are standing in front of a being. Tap into the energies and trust your very first answer. 

„can you tell me your name, please?”

It might take several meditations before you receive this answer, but, once again, trust those instincts—you have them for a reason. Allow your imagination to expand. Your guides name may not come quickly or even come to you at all when meditating. You might be given the name a few days later, so look out for signs. If, during the following days, you hear the same name repeatedly, perhaps on TV or the radio, it could be your guide nudging you gently. Alternatively, you might wake up one morning with a clear name in your head.

Once you have your guides name, you are on your way to connecting with them fully. If you are serious about making a connection with your guide, you must meditate every night before going to sleep. People often fall asleep during meditation; this is quite alright. When you arrive at a meditative state, your vibration rises and your energy starts to change and evolve. It does take lots of practice, so never give up. After a while you will be able to slip into this relaxed state quickly and summon your guide as needed.

Thank you for reading this. For all the beginner witches out there, I hope you grow more and more accustomed to your spiritual journey, and find your own path 🤍 please remember that you can find your own path to witchcraft — there’s no set formula, just a bunch of practices that you can choose to use. Witchcraft can be used for anything — from protection to success in certain aspects of life. If you want to know more, you may check out my quotev or tiktok account. I have posted information relating to these topics there, but I’m posting irregularly. Especially my tiktok account, I don’t really post there anymore 💔 but the works are still there.

10 Must-Know Meditation Tips and Techniques for Beginners

Tarot and Books: TOP 10 Books on Tarot for Beginners that Will Help You Become a Professional FAST

It’s not a secret that nowadays, many start their Tarot journey by watching YouTube videos, Instagram IGTVs and Reels and simply reading posts on the internet or social media.

Are the books dead then?

They are absolutely not.

While all mentioned above provides with an enormous amount of information, this knowledge should not replace a proper education that includes courses and literature.

As someone who spent approximately 100 hours on educational COURSES ONLY, studying from various professional across the globe, I can still say that when I read a good book on Tarot, some aspects are mind blowing and eye opening.

At this time, there are so many different books available to purchase, both hard copy and electronical. Some give away their books and guides for free, while others come up with beautiful Tarot decks in addition to their published work.

What I’m really trying to say here is that for a beginner it will be difficult to figure out which book is worth investing in and which one is a waste of money.

For example, does a beginner need “The Complete Book of Tarot Reversals” by Mary Greer? What about “365 Tarot Spreads: Revealing the Magic in Each Day” by Sasha Graham? Does a beginner really need all these spreads when they are just starting out getting familiar with the energy of the cards?

Let’s figure it all out.

Does A Beginner Tarot Reader Need to Read Educational Books?

Of course, educational Tarot literature is necessary for beginners, especially those who are barely familiar with Major Arcana Tarot cards meanings. You need to understand key symbols, variations of interpretations and combinations.

On the other hand, here is something you need to be mindful of: nowadays SO MANY Tarot readers and authors start writing books based on their own PERSONAL views, interpretations and “author’s created techniques and methods” that sometimes they start to deviate from traditional card meanings and interpretations.

Is it good or bad?

Neither, really. When you advance in Tarot, you will start feeling each card in your own way and may also see some aspects slightly differently and that’s quite normal. BUT for a beginner it’s just not good at all.

When you are just being introduced to the world of Tarot, I always suggest that you stick to the classics. You just can’t go wrong with a traditional Tarot deck and a few good books to support your education.

RELATED POSTS: TAROT FOR BEGINNERS: HOW TO BECOME A GOOD TAROT READER: My 3 Tips for Beginner Tarot Readers

Author’s opinion can certainly broaden horizons, improve and stroke your imagination, and really explain how the traditional meaning of the card can be expanded.

On the other hand, some beginners that don’t want to invest in proper education, may take this “point of view” as the holy truth and the only way to interpret the card.

As a result, their readings will be of poor quality and it will take time for them to understand why.

It’s important to mention that some of the books that come as a package with a Tarot deck are a true masterpiece and also a must-have when you are working with their deck. And truly, in my humble opinion, you should only buy a deck that comes with such book and not the teeny tiny black and white book that gets lost in your drawer.

Lastly, I’ll say that the best and most perfect Tarot book is the one that ignites your imagination, inspires you to learn and practice, and really helps you to believe in your abilities and trust your intuition.

What Types of Tarot Books Will You Find on The Market?

Before I give you the list of my Top Tarot books, let me explain to you what you can learn from them.

Tarot literature should be divided in the following categories:

· “Base” Books: these are your “must read” books that will help you to understand the cards well and really feel each card. They will contain practical examples and advice, as well as useful spreads with guidelines. These are the Tarot books I will be focusing on below in this Blog post.

· “Additional” Books: these Tarot books provide with additional materials to improve and deeper understand Tarot from all the different angles, mystical and occult studies.

Some examples would include numerology, Kabbala, astrology, reversed Tarot cards, Tarot and Ritual Magic, as well as some author’s unique techniques for using Tarot. An example could be creating a psychological portrait of a person using Tarot cards.

These are definitely NOT must haves for Tarot beginners but you can selectively purchase them later on based on your interests and also gaps in your knowledge.

I included reversed Tarot cards in this section because MANY Tarot readers, myself included, do not read cards reversed. It is absolutely not a must and you can give quality readings just the same without reading reversals. In fact, I’ve noticed that they tend to scare the beginners off from learning Tarot because people find them confusing.

· Literature That Comes With a Deck: this is something I have already briefly touched on in this Blog post. These books are written by a person that created a Tarot deck and wishes to make sure that a person using it, understands where they are coming from and should the meaning deviate from the original, it would be explained in a great detail why and what it means for you.

RELATED POSTS: TAROT FOR BEGINNERS: STARTING WITH BASICS. HOW TO CHOOSE A TAROT DECK that is right for YOU.

A good example of this is using Tarot: Journey into Egypt Tarot deck that is absolutely gorgeous and one of my favorites. This deck is definitely NOT suitable for beginners. Not only there are variations of card meanings based on the history of Ancient Egypt, the creator of the deck chose to switch Fire and Air elements in Wands & Swords suites and this dramatically changes how you would read the elements energy in a spread.

What Are Some of The Best Tarot Books for Beginners?

I want to just put it out there: these are some of MY PERSONAL TOP books for beginners and some Tarot readers may disagree with me and have their own list.

I trust that you have read some of my other blogs or have been following me on Instagram for a while to really establish a connection and understand what type of a Tarot Reader I am.

“The Key to the Tarot” which was later expanded and republished as “The Pictorial Key to the Tarot” by Arthur Edward Waite

These books are mentioned first because most people start their Tarot journey using a traditional Rider-Waite Tarot deck.

The book "The Key to the Tarot" describes symbolical and divination meanings for Rider-Waite Tarot deck and they are offered by the creator of the deck himself.

This really is the SOURCE for your Rider-Waite Tarot studies and a Tarot beginner should never skip this book because no one can give you better information than the creator.

Whether you are going to use Tarot for divination, meditation or magical and ritual work, this is your NUMBER 1 BOOK.

"The Holy Kabbalah" by Arthur Edward Waite

Now, IF you are planning on sticking with Rider-Waite deck for some time and work as a professional Tarot reader with clients, you should really consider "The Holy Kabbalah" book.

You probably heard people ditching this deck because it is highly "kabbalistic,” but this is some very powerful and ancient stuff and you really need to consider this before you switch this deck for some rainbows and unicorns.

This book by Arthur Waite is a very rich in information and well documented source. 

"The Ultimate Guide to the Rider Waite Tarot" Book by Evelin Burger and Johannesburg Fiebig

This book is my absolute favourite companion to this day. I have mentioned it before in my other blog post because I am so in love with it, I feel like it is worth preaching about it again and again.

I was actually quite hesitant to purchase it.

It was my FIRST Tarot book and I bought it together with my first deck! So, here it is my absolute beginner book suggestion from a perspective of a beginner!

I have no regrets about purchasing it. I referred to it a thousand times while I was studying cards and here is why.

It was always my goal to become a professional. And I believe that as a professional you need to know your cards inside out.

And you can’t really do this without understanding properly WHAT IS ON THOSE CARDS!

What does the tree mean? What about a blue colour? Is this an astrological symbol?

You NEED to know these things! Because this blue colour or astrological symbol of Venus repeat thought the deck and unite the cards that contain them.

You will be able to truly know your deck when you know those symbols. And it’s the same thing with any deck. If you go with Thoth Tarot, you will need to spend some time learning about Alchemy because this was Crowley’s thing. And if you want to use Rider-Waite deck, you will need to learn his techniques and methods.

In this case, this book is your best friend.

The book gives a short description for each important element of the Tarot card. It also gives a short basic meaning of the card AND its meaning as a card of the day which is amazing because most beginners start to practice Tarot by pulling their daily card and journaling it.

Lastly, which I think is great, is that it gives Tarot card’s meaning in love and relationship. And let’s be real, relationship questions comprise 70% of all Tarot reading, if not more.

"Secrets of the Waite-Smith Tarot: The True Story of the World's Most Popular Tarot" by Marcus Katz

This book is considered to be one of the best on the market for Rider-Waite Tarot.

From this book we can learn more about the lives of Pamela Smith (the artist of the deck) and Arthur Waite.

Just when I started reading this book, I could already feel so immersed in the world of Waite's Tarot. The author of this book did an incredible research job to put all this information together.

This book has it all, from descriptions of each Arcana and examples of spreads and understanding how to use them, to the lives of two great people that gave us the most used Tarot deck of all time.

You will really feel being a part of the wonderful world of Tarot after reading this book.

“21 Ways to Read a Tarot Card” by  Mary K Greer

Mary K Greer has come with a truly unique and wonderful method that gives you 21 ways to interpret each Tarot card.

Just as the Fool travels through “The Journey of the Hero”, the author offers anyone to join the journey and experience the transformational power of Tarot.

You will learn the mysteries and wisdom of Major Arcana and live through the cards to deeply connect with them and understand their true meanings.

Mary K. Greer shares her personal and unique knowledge and approach to Tarot that in turn will help you to get the answers to the most important questions using Tarot cards.

What is most encouraging is how she  really draws out from your heart all those hidden negative patterns and emotions and guides you on how to turn them into positivity and growth.

The author also helps you to create your own new reality and encourages you that no matter where you are right now in your life, you can always start your journey again from scratch and accomplish your goals.

To sum up, the book will teach you the following:

· How to create and maintain a Tarot journal properly (throughout the years of my work with Tarot beginners, I have noticed that many start Tarot journals but don’t seem to go through with them for a long time).

· It will teach you the author’s own method of learning each card and obtaining additional information when necessary that still is applicable for your traditional cards use.

· The book will provide you with rather novel ways and methods of Tarot spreads interpretations.

· It will really broaden and deepen your understanding of each card which in turn will help you to interpret combinations better.

I personally think that this book is a real gift to those trying to become good Tarot readers from the start, but also to those who want to improve the quality of their own life and relationships with others.

The book of Mary K Greer 21 “Ways to Read a Tarot Card” is not only about studying the cards, like most others, it’s also about how to transform your life with Tarot.

And, honestly, lately I have seen a lot of beginner Tarot Instagram profiles of people trying to use Tarot to get through trauma, loss and challenges. But people tend to give up quickly because all they do is read cards daily for themselves and if this is all you do, trust me, you will get bored quickly.

This book will help you on this journey and will teach you how to use Tarot for transformation, growth and happiness.

Tarot for the Healing Heart: Using Inner Wisdom to Heal Body and Mind by Christine Jette

The book focuses on the utilization of your inner wisdom to heal your mind and body.

It is a very powerful book written by a nurse with 30+ years of work experience, bachelor in Psychology and a professional energy healer and a Tarot reader.

Wow don’t you think she’d have a lot to tell??

Because she definitely does.

Her focus is using Tarot cards for healing and, in particular self-healing.

So often I see people trying to use Tarot to overcome trauma, to heal their body and soul and they just struggle to figure out how to do this.  

While I mentioned Mary K. Greer teaching somewhat similar things in her book, this one really expands the subject of healing.

The symbology of Tarot carries the healing messages that can activate and kick start self-healing processes in your body, ultimately guiding you to becoming whole again. And feeling whole is what paves a path to healing.

And in this book, healing process is divided into 4 levels by the 4 Suites of Minor Arcana in Tarot: physical (Pentacles), emotional (Cups), psychological (Swords) and spiritual (Wands).

By using symbology and Tarot spreads provided, you will be able to get information on which level is blocked and what you need to do to lift this block and allow energy to flow freely again.  

“Tarot Tips” by Ruth Ann Amberstone, Wald Amberstone

This books is very unique in a way that it’s is more of a Q&A writing style.

The Authors Ruth Ann Amberstone and Wald Amberstone at this time have over 70 years of Tarot experience and are founders of The Tarot School.

The Tarot Tips books is composed of techniques and methods of work with Tarot cards. It contains information and very clear answers to 78 real questions that were asked by the Tarot readers from the various Tarot schools and backgrounds.

It will be equally beneficial to a beginner and an advanced Tarot practitioner.

If you are a beginner, the book will give you some incredible insights, ideas and recommendations on how to use Tarot.

This wraps up my list for some MUST have Tarot books that every Tarot beginner should read.

Thoth Tarot Books

Of course, it’s necessary to mention Thoth Tarot, particularly for those who are starting with it their Tarot journey. While I myself don’t recommend this, I have met those who used Thoth Tarot deck from the very beginning. There are way too many books on Thoth Tarot, so I want to tell you which ones I do AND do not recommend.

Recommend:

“The Book of Thoth” by Aleister Crowley

It is always best to start with the book written by a person who created the deck. Even though not all deck creators are the best writers and the books can be tedious and, at times, difficult to follow, you should still give them a chance. You should also check out other books by Crowley because he really was an incredible person. 

"Understanding Aleister Crowley's Thoth Tarot" by Lon Milo DuQuette

This is also a very good work and is absolutely worth a purchase. The book gives cards descriptions and elements that Crowley added or changed based on his vision and work he’s been doing during his life.

Books I do NOT recommend:

“Tarot: Mirror of the Soul: Handbook for the Aleister Crowley Tarot” Book by Gerd Ziegler

“Keywords for the Crowley Tarot” Book by Brigitte Theler and Hajo Banzhaf

These books I would recommend to avoid amongst others “best sellers” for Thoth Tarot, due to the many inaccuracies and wrong interpretations. I don’t blame some of the authors. Thoth Tarot is not easy to understand and not everything was explained by Crowley himself, but you can clearly see that some people haven’t even tried.

"Tarot and Astrology: Enhance Your Readings With the Wisdom of the Zodiac" Book by Corrine Kenner

I want to also suggest you a few books that I would include into my "Additional literature" section because if you want to really dedicate your time to study Tarot on a professional level, sooner or later you will get into other aspects that are integral parts of divination.

Astrology has a very big influence on Tarot and I think Corrine Kenner has done an amazing job to put everything together for the reader.

The book starts with Astrology basics with regards to Tarot but also talks about the twelve signs of zodiac and the planets.

I personally offer 12 Houses of Astrology Tarot reading every year in December and it's always a huge success because it is an extremely informative and fun reading, so a book like this helped me to connect even deeper with Astrology.

Some actually use Astrological aspects of Tarot to predict and plan dates, so if that's something you are interested in, this book will also be very helpful for you.

Bonus Book 📚✨

"Understanding The Tarot Court" Book by Mary K. Greer and Tom Little

Lastly, I want to include this book because we all know that Courts cards tend to be the most difficult to understand and interpret in a Tarot reading.

While some think that Court cards solely describe a specific person, the authors of this book give a suggestion on how to use these 16 cards as a tool to describe different variations and sides of personalities of the querent and people in their life.

Whichever method you choose to follow, this book has a massive amount of information and will definitely make your Tarot journey so much easier.

[zinaelemental]

Hello Pagan tumblr,

My name is Zina. I’ve been a practicing Elemental Pagan for the last 6 months and here is a little tid bit about my beliefs and practices. I’m writing as I go and when I can’t write anymore I stop and come back so please bear with me.

What is an Elemental Pagan?

An Elemental Paganism is what I call my personal beliefs that the elements are in control of this Earth and all things that dwell on it. They can be angry, happy, gentle, rough, sad, etc.

With each element comes a link to our inner and external environment. When I say environment I don’t just mean the physical realm that surrounds us, I mean the spirit and emotional realm as well.

Essentially, an Elemental Pagan believes that the elements (Earth, Air, Water, Fire, and Spirit) are the higher power and control what happens to humanity.

Can you pray as an Elemental Pagan?

Absolutely! In elemental paganism, it is vital to talk to the elements and seek guidance. They will more than likely listen to your request or help you understand why it’s important to the growth of either the world, humanity, or an individual themselves. Unfortunately, like all prayer, it’s hard to really know if you’ve been heard. But if you’re praying and you feel a change in temperature or you get goosebumps or you suddenly feel a gust of wind, that means they’re listening. Sometimes these signs are so subtle that you might not notice them, it takes practice to feel the slightest changes in atmosphere. Grounding meditations can really help for that! (I’ll touch on this in the next segment).

Communication is key to shaping your relationship with the elements. Tell them when you’re mad, tell them what makes you angry and they’ll tell you why they are, too. If you think something isn’t beneficial to you, yell at them about it, get your anger out. The elements know that emotional expression is necessary for human sanity and improvement and they won’t hold that against you.

The elements are always listening, but that doesn’t mean they’re going to fulfill your request if the struggle/problem is meant to happen for individual or global growth.

How do I practice?

Anyone knows that practice is important for any structured belief, it helps us get closer to our higher powers and guides. It’s important to mention that practice can be anything you want it to be.

Thinking in the shower/bath and seeking guiding? That’s practice.

Going outside and meditating? Practice.

As long as the purpose of your thought process is to seek guidance or listen to your guides, that’s practice in my book. You don’t have to have an entire ritual set out for every day, that isn’t necessary.

For the sake of this argument, I will share some of my rituals I do to help get myself closer to the elements.

Grounding and meditation tips

Feel free to skip this part if you don’t plan on doing rituals!

I’ll make a future post about how exactly I do this as an Elemental Pagan, but for now I’m just going to mention that this is a stationary ritual; you must remain in the same position and spot during meditation and grounding to experience it to the fullest. You find a spot and a position that’s very comfortable for you; sitting, lying down, standing, a yoga position if you want.

For meditation, you let your mind kind of wander and let your spirit talk to itself and the elements.

For grounding, it’s important you think of a place, like a forest or a lake, and attach yourself to the Earth. Typically this is done by imagining yourself growing roots into Earth’s soil where this imaginary place is (or if you’re lucky enough then you can meditate at a very earthy place and imagine it happening right where you are!). I won’t go into too much detail, so here are a few helpful links.

Guided grounding: https://youtu.be/b5LkXFPngX8

Can I work with Deities?

Yes! I follow three deities and use them as guides. I don’t believe the deities have any immense power, like the elements do, but they can definitely help you understand what might be happening and help you grow and gain knowledge. Personally, I have Odin (Norse pantheon), Medusa (Greek pantheon), and Gaia (Greek pantheon) as my spirit guides.

Odin teaches me wisdom and understanding. If there is a disagreement he tells me how to see both sides and reminds me my perspective is different, not the right or wrong one.

Medusa teaches me the sacredness of nature and physical and internal beauty of those around me. She tells me to stop looking at people as if they aren’t human; don’t hold them accountable for everything they say and do. Forgive those who have wronged you, see beauty in everything and everyone, and remember your worth.

Gaia teaches me the importance of life and human birth. As people we are taught that death is inevitable, yes very much so, but Gaia shows me that life is more than our physical form and takes place deeper than that. Our life is different than everyone else’s. She teaches me empathy, pain, healing, and inner growth. Life also doesn’t mean strictly human life, it means all forms. So animals are not less or more important than humans. All life is equal.

Yes but understand they aren’t higher powers, they are guides. They can’t change the outcome or situation but they can help you learn from it or help you decide what to do and where to go.

What are Spirit Guides?

Spirit guides are spirits, deities, depictions, etc. who help bring guidance to you. The elements can refuse to help you with your problem if it is meant to improve you, but sometimes they aren’t exactly clear as to how that might be. As mentioned previously, I have three deity guides. All of whom have an animal depiction instead of the more commonly known human form. For example, Odin is a wolf or raven depending on what’s being shown (raven for understanding, wolf for emotional expression/nihilism [death is inevitable and nothing we do matters so live your life how you want]). These guides are here to, well, guide you. Each guide has its own purpose or calling, they typically won’t go outside of that unless they see fit. Odin won’t help me with seeing the inner beauty in someone unless it helps me understand their point in the argument, etc.

Guides can be anything you want so long as they help you and teach you the importance of a situation. They aren’t higher powers, they can’t change the situation or outcome. They’re only there to advise you, they’re your council.

Find a good area for yoga practice in your home. You can use a spare room or any quiet space.

Practicing in a good spot in your home creates pleasant memories that increase your desire for routine. This is also the best place to store your props and mat so that you can get started quickly.

2) Buy Apparel and Mat for Yoga

Yoga postures require a great deal of movements and body twists. So, if you wear baggy or tight clothing, then you may feel uncomfortable and this may limit your movements. Natural fabrics such as cotton and hemp are ideal for yoga because they allow natural air flow to the body. Spandex and Lycra are also good options because they are equally comfortable. So, try out different fabrics to see which ones allow you to make better movements. Also, don't forget the yoga mat. This mat will cushion your body when you are lying, kneeling, and performing sitting postures during meditation.

3) Focus on Mind and Body

Yoga practice is about creating harmony between body and mind, but most importantly about achieving a relaxed state of body and mind. This is a vital lesson in yoga practice which helps you mind focus and hold your poses. Of course, you can only attain absolute peace by linking breath to movement in your practice.

4) Keep a journal

Remember to journalize your thoughts, experience, insights, and the comments from your instructor as you practice yoga. Take note of your observations of class practice, styles, postures, new terms and all you have learnt. Also, note down questions on meditation and practice so that you can ask your instructor when you are in class. Keeping a journal increases self-awareness, generates ideas, and helps you grow from your mistakes.

5) Have Realistic Expectations

You should have realistic expectations in your yoga practice. In other words, you should aim for authenticity instead of perfection. Having a realistic approach allows you to know your capabilities and weaknesses. Of course, you can never learn yoga in one day, so give yourself time to learn and grow in yoga. Learning and practice will make things easier and increase your confidence as you tackle new challenges and master new techniques.

https://buymailordermarijuana.com/cannabis-for-relaxation-how-to-get-the-best-results/

Over the years, cannabis has emerged as a powerful wellness aid even as users were initially apprehensive about it. The legal status has fuelled acceptance and trust even further. Medical studies have validated its efficacy for treating a range of health conditions such as chronic pain, depression, anxiety, digestive issues, and more. At the same time, it continues to be revered for alleviating anxiety and inducing relaxation and calmness. But the approach differs when you use it to achieve relaxation rather than a medicinal benefit. You may be a little less conscious about facts such as dosage and timing because a health issue isn’t involved. Ideally, you should practice the same diligence as with medicinal cannabis because it can enhance the safety and efficacy of the experience. Let us explain how you can do it.

Understand your Needs and Expectations

Before anything else, you must understand your needs and expectations. Are you struggling with anxiety or pain, or you simply want to unwind? Do you want the psychoactive high or a gentle feeling of calmness? At what time of the day do you want to use cannabis for relaxation? How long would you expect the effects to last? Answer these questions before you start. It will help you take a more realistic approach to the experience. Also, consider whether you are a first-timer or a seasoned user because the way cannabis affects your body depends on the factor. People who just start can get results quickly and with smaller quantities. Conversely, you will have to opt for more as you use it regularly and tolerance levels increase.

Know the Product Options

Apart from having realistic expectations to start with, you must also know the product options. Typically, users like to vape, or smoke weed for a quick hit. Since you inhale the smoke, it reaches your lungs directly and finds its way into the bloodstream quickly. It means you can feel the high within minutes. Sublingual tinctures are also acclaimed for quick action because you ingest them under the tongue, from where it gets absorbed quickly. Cannabis edibles are a good option if you want to experience sustainable effects that keep you relaxed throughout the day or night. They reach your digestive system, and the cannabinoids are absorbed slowly. Pick the right product option to match your expectations, and you are good to go.

Pick the Right Strain for Relaxation

The most important piece of advice is to pick the right strain that has the potential to relax. You will probably know that all weed strains aren’t the same in terms of composition and effects. For example, slurricaine strain is a 60/40 indica-dominant hybrid, which makes it ideal for your purpose. While it is relaxing, it will not completely knock you. Moreover, its THC content makes it perfect for a restful night because the effect stays for long.

THC is the psychoactive cannabinoid that hits you and offers a feeling of immense relaxation. If you want to feel that hit, pay attention to the strain composition, and opt for one high in THC. Conversely, a CBD-dominant strain is apt for users looking for strains with healing potential.

Dosing is Crucial

When it comes to using cannabis for relaxation, correct dosing is crucial. You cannot go overboard with the dose only because you want to feel calm rather than derive a medicinal benefit. You have to follow the same dosage rules as if using it for pain, insomnia, or any other medical condition. Start low and slow and reach an optimal level where you experience the expected results. It is best to stick to smaller doses if you want to attain maximum relaxation, specifically if you are a beginner. A couple of drags, a few drops of a tincture, or a single slice of pot brownie may be enough to make you feel relaxed without getting you high. Understanding your tolerance levels is also crucial because every person has a different one. It can help you control the experience for better outcomes.

Choose the Timing Carefully

Another factor to bear in mind while using cannabis for relaxation is the timing of the session. You should stick to the evening because you need a calm feeling at the end of the day. Moreover, you will not have to worry about an urgent work task or client call spoiling the session. After all, you will not expect to attend to them while being high. Choosing evening sessions is beneficial as you can achieve the feeling of calmness and have a restful night ahead. If you are on a break, there isn’t a need to be selective about the timing. You can indulge anytime you want to feel the relaxing vibes that come with a cannabis experience.

Elevate the Experience with a Relaxation Technique

Combining cannabis with relaxation techniques is an excellent idea if it is the purpose of use. Consider meditating right after the session because both complement each other perfectly. Cannabis relaxes your mind and lets you achieve the state of focus and concentration needed to meditate. At the same time, meditation enhances the relaxing effect of cannabis. If you simply want to have a good time, listening to music, watching a movie, or having conversations with your friends are great ideas. You can take a long, hot bath when you have a session. These activities will take your experience a notch higher. Combining workouts with weed is another good idea if exercise is a form of relaxation for you. It peps up your energy levels, keeps you going with high motivation, and relieves muscle soreness. Cannabis can do magic when it comes to inducing relaxation for the body and mind. But everything boils down to tailoring your experience for better outcomes. Although it sounds complicated, you need not do much to get the best results. Just follow these tips, and you can have a great time without worrying about overdoing it. Listen to your body, and you will never go wrong with the experience!

I wish to ask each one of you listening to me today a question – a question which must be close to the hearts of us all concerning truth. If a man known to you as a murderer broke into your home and asked the whereabouts of your mother, would you tell him where she was? Would you tell him the truth? Would you? I venture not – I hope not. In the most mystical of the Gospels – in the Gospel of St. John we read, "Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." Therein lies a challenge to us all, "The truth shall make you free." If you told the truth concerning your mother, would you set her free? Again, in John we read, "Sanctify them by the truth." If you gave your mother up to a murderer, would you "sanctify her?" What, then, is the truth of which the Bible so constantly speaks? The truth of the Bible is always coupled with love. The truth of the Bible is that spiritual realization of conscious life in God towards which the human soul evolves through all eternity.
