Because we won’t ask you to add new routines—just to sprinkle a little magic into what you're already doing.

And because we know you're always looking for ways to simplify your life, we've got a special surprise waiting for you at the end. Trust us, it's worth the read.

1. Sprinkle Cinnamon in Your Coffee 

1. Vision Boarding

We all know that no matter how crazy your morning gets, you're going to find time for that essential cup of coffee or tea. 

While you're brewing your coffee or steeping your tea, simply add a pinch of cinnamon. Not only does it taste great, but in the magical world, cinnamon is known for attracting good fortune, firing up creativity, and inviting success into your day.

2. Align Your Actions with the Moon Phases 

You're already checking your phone for the weather forecast, right? Why not take a quick peek at the moon phase while you're at it? Each moon phase brings its own special energy, and tapping into it is easier than you might think:

  • New Moon: Think of this as the universe's "New Year." It's perfect for setting intentions or starting that project you've been putting off.
  • Waxing Moon: As the moon grows, so can your projects. Maybe it's time to send that email or make that call you've been nervous about?
  • Full Moon: The moon is showing off, and so should you. This is a great time to celebrate progress or push for project completion. Treat yourself to a nice dinner; you've earned it.
  • Waning Moon: Time for some spring cleaning, even if it's fall. Let go of what's not serving you, whether it's clutter in your closet or that habit you've been meaning to kick.

3. Use Pinterest as Your Vision Board 

Vision boards have entered the digital age, and it's as simple as your regular browsing routine.

Here's how it works: create Pinterest boards that align with your goals. Think "Abundance," "Love," or "New Career"—whatever resonates with your current aspirations. Next, fill these boards with images that speak to you

The magic happens when you regularly revisit these boards. Take a few moments each week to scroll through your pins, allowing the visuals to reinforce your intentions.

4. Use Herbs for Specific Intents

Practice 2: Walking in Nature

Herbs aren't just for spicing up your meals—they're secret magical allies hiding in plain sight. Here's a quick guide to some common herbs you can add to your food or tea:

  • Rosemary: protection
  • Basil: prosperity.
  • Chamomile: anxiety relief
  • Peppermint: energy and vitality 
  • Sage: purifying 
  • Thyme: courage 

Remember, the magic is in your intention. As you use these herbs, take a moment to focus on their properties. 

5. Create a Prosperity Bowl in Your Home

It's simple, decorative, and who knows? It might just give your finances a little magical boost.

Place a bowl in the back left corner of your home—that's the wealth spot according to Feng Shui. Fill it with items associated with prosperity:

  • Crystals like citrine, green aventurine, or pyrite
  • A few coins
  • Some cinnamon sticks
  • A bay leaf (you can write a financial goal on it)

6. Wear and Burn the Right Scents

Different scents can influence your mood and energy, and even help you attract what you want.

Here are a few examples to get you started:

  • Lavender: relaxation
  • Citrus: energy 
  • Patchouli: abundance 
  • Rose: romance.
  • Sandalwood: clarity

7. Add Crystals to Your Purse or Pocket

Pick your crystal in the morning based on what you need that day. A quick moment of intention as you pocket your stone, and you're good to go. Here are some popular choices:

  • Rose Quartz: love and self-care
  • Citrine: motivation and creativity
  • Amethyst: calmness and intuition
  • Pyrite: abundance 
  • Tiger's Eye: confidence 

8. Use Cleaning as a Ritual

Who says chores can't be magical? Here's a few examples of how to infuse your cleaning routine with intention:

  • Tackle the bathroom to wash away money blocks
  • Clean up the kitchen for good health
  • Tidy the home office to clear mental clutter
  • Refresh the living home for better family dynamics

Once you're done, burn some sage, palo santo, or incense. Just remember to open a window so the negative energies can flow away. 

9. Cleansing Shower

Why stop at scrubbing your body when you can wash away bad vibes too? Sprinkle some salt at the base of your shower. As you step in, let the salt and water mix beneath your feet. Imagine it's not just dirt washing away, but all the day's stress and negativity too.

For an extra boost, keep some empowering crystals in your bathroom. Just make sure they're water-safe, not all crystals play well with moisture.

10. Make Witchcraft Easy

Let's be honest—we all dream of being that ethereal witch in flowing robes, gathering herbs from misty forests and spending entire full moons chanting ancient spells. But between work, family, and trying to keep your plants alive, who has the time?
