Self Mothering
Magic is often about using our imagination, tapping in to the power of our minds to harness and shift energy.
This technique is all about calling in the ultimate nurturing care for ourselves.
Self mothering is the ultimate self care practice, and once you learn to make a habit out of it, you can call in on this healing voice to support you emotionally and spiritually whenever you need it.
Whether you need comforting, a pep talk, someone to step in when the negative voice is getting too loud or even if you need some motivation to do some exercise.
All you have to do is close your eyes and imagine a little version of yourself, aged about 7 or 8.
Close your eyes and see this little you and tell yourself in a kind and soothing voice that you are there to take care and look after you.
You can either ask your little you what you need or would like, or offer some nurturing words of advice, be very gentle and calm just as you would if you were talking to an 8 year old.
I have been finding it particularly useful lately as I have been trying to exercise again. I sit on the sofa and procrastinate, I call in on the voice and she says: “You should just try to do a little exercise, I know you don’t feel like it now but I promise you’ll feel better after”
It always seems to do the trick!
Remember, this is a voice of unconditional love and it will only ever speak kindly to you.
If you want to add some extra magic to this practice you may wish to connect a scent to this nurturing voice and whenever you wish to call the voice in you can connect to a scent to call in this beautiful and supportive nurturing energy.
I would recommend our Legendary Love Potion dedicated specifically to summoning and celebrating self love, scented with rose to warm and open your heart and frankincense to bring calm soothing energy and connect you to your higher conciseness.
