A Spell to Encourage Self-Esteem
Lacking that happy knack of making friends easily? If you are asked to a
party, do you stand around like the proverbial wallflower while everyone
else is engaged in happy conversations and the sound of everybody’s
laughter fills the room? Or maybe your career is stuck in a rut that’s
deeper than a jumbo jet’s tire mark on a muddy runway? If you think,
‘That’s me!’ about any of these suggestions, then maybe the answer lies
in a lack of self-esteem. The following may, no will, help.
You will need:
A bath!
Lavender essential oil
Jasmine essential oil
An essential oil burner
Seven green oak leaves (or basil, if oak is out of season)
One purple candle
One yellow candle
Purple thread
An envelope
Light the candles, run a warm (not hot) bath, and drizzle some of the
lavender oil into the water. Float the leaves in the bath and climb in.
Breathe in through your nose and hold your breath for a count of seven.
Breathe out through your mouth for a count of seven, and then seven
more. When you breathe in, visualize your lungs filling up with warm,
golden light. As you breathe out, see your frustrations in your breath
and watch your anger, pain and any other barriers between you and the
rest of the world leave you.
Now, totally relaxed and at ease with yourself, visualize a spot of golden
light above you. Watch it get bigger and bigger before it floats down and
your body is enveloped in its warm glow. At this point, say the words
that follow or ones suggested by them:
I have a contribution to make.
I have words to say.
Let others hear the words I speak.
And take self-doubt away.
And let it be done, that it harm no one.
