Ritual

What does ritual mean to you? Is it something you turn to annually, seasonally, daily? Does it include some form of movement, meditation, action; or sacred objects like oracle cards, candles, incense, crystals?

2021 | Chakras, Yoga, Meditation

It has been a LONG time since I've mentioned the chakras, philosophy, or meditation in any of my blogs or even in my classes.
