NEW YEAR RELEASE RITUAL FOR HOLISTIC WELLBEING.
The year’s end is a season that can be felt in different ways. Some enjoy the excitement, and others feel it as pressured or even loaded. No matter how we relate to the calendar flicking over, we are all more able to find seek opportunity, and possibility, when we are not being held back by outdated attitudes, or stories (also heavily known as the culmination of muddy 2024).
Here is a little HOLISTIC WELLBEING ritual to release the old before the 2025 really begins.
Create some smoke to shift the vastu (energy) of your space - and incense, wood, or smudge. Put some of clarifying essential oil - like FRANKINCENSE or HOLY BASIL (we love BOHOBO AROMATHERAPIES MINDFULNESS ROLLER ) on your palms and the soles of your feet (here is the bit where I promised you would have all the ingredients with you. If you don’t have essential oils or BOHOBO AROMATHERAPIES you can use a little price of ORANGE PEEL, ROSEMARY, or even toothpaste!)
Rub your hands together to create heat and inhale. Allow the oils to move into your body.
Pop some socks or slippers on (it is vata season after all!)
Light the candle base to melt the wax and ‘glue’ it to a saucer.
Write on the paper that which you are ready to let go of in a positive present way - for example I find myself easily honouring a fifteen-minute daily mediation practice (implying this is not something you were able to be consistent with until now), I find myself easily establishing a healthy night time routine (implying the current night time routing is no longer serving you) I and myself easily eating food for my health and vitality (implying current food choices are not honouring you) , I find myself easily surrendering outdated beliefs around…, I find myself easily releasing attachment to…etc.
Light the candle.
Meditate in the flame.
A gentle gaze, then close your eyes. Notice what comes up.
When the candle is half burned light the paper and surrender.
HAPPY NEW YEAR. May it guide us gently to exactly where we are meant to be.
So much love x
