What you will need:
- 1 cup or bowl of natural water (rain water, pond water, lake water, puddle water, etc.)
Steps:
- Collect your water.
- Let the water charge overnight, beneath the moon.
- Once it’s fully changed, dip all of your fingers into the water.
- Inhale and exhale deeply…
- …envision the water traveling up through your fingertips and into your veins, all throughout your body from head to toes.
- Let this soothe you and calm you as you say:
“As this water is my blood
and my blood, this water
Soothe me.
Bring me peace.
I am tranquil, and I am still
as the water from which
my blood is borne.”Press your wet fingertips to your cheeks and breathe out/feel the negative energy of your anxiety leaving your body.
