There
is something magical and enlivening that takes place when we act out
our desires through a ritual.
They change our awareness toward the world around us so that our inner
desires can more easily be realized.
If
you're on an adventure of self-discovery, dip into the rituals below
to help guide you along the way.
But first make sure you...
Set
the mood You
should be in a spirit of calm and peace as you perform your ritual.
make sure you have enough time to perform the ritual. you shouldn't
feel rushed.
find a quiet place where you won't be interrupted.
perform the ritual by yourself or with others who are also
performing the ritual. there shouldn't be anyone present who is
not a part of the ritual.
Breath To
begin your ritual in a focused state of mind find a comfortable place
to sit. Rest your hands on your knees in a relaxed position and breathe.
Just breathe for five minutes allowing your mind to empty all thoughts
and focus only on the energy of your breath and its life force.
No
worries
If you don't have the objects listed in the ritual, just substitute
them with the closest thing you can find. Ideally objects should be
made of a natural material, for example, use cotton or silk ribbon
rather than nylon. Remember, the most important thing is your intention.
Don't

Create your own.
Rituals require only two things; a purpose and an action.
