Self Care Sachet!
Hello! This is a quick little guide on making yourself a self care sachet. This can be used by anyone, but is centered around aiding those with long term mental health issues such as depression or anxiety.
They
are basically a little promise you are making to yourself. Whether that
be to remember to feel less anxiety over doing daily activities such as
washing or brushing your teeth or just a reminder to not be so hard on
yourself and to drink more hot chocolate, it’s up to you what you pick.
The idea is to pick a purpose that cares for you in a positive way. I’ve
been making these recently and they have really helped me. As the
process is quite beginner friendly I thought I’d share! You will need:
Herbs of your choice (Optional)
Small crystal (Optional)
Tissue paper (ordinary paper if you lack tissue paper)
scissors
A lighter/matches
Tape OR string
pen
ordinary paper/leaf
1. Write your intent down.
Some examples of intent: “I try my best to eat regular meals” “I am able
to stay calm outside of my room” “I allow myself to enjoy a hot
chocolate”.
Create a sigil out of your statement and write it down on another piece of paper or a leaf.
Read your statement out loud and will all of your energy into visualising it coming to fruition.
Burn the piece of paper/ the leaf and collect the ashes.
2. Gather your materials.
Cut a small square to make your sachet with from your tissue paper.
Add
each of your chosen herbs to the middle. (I chose lavender for
peace/anxiety, sage for wisdom and cleansing and dried dandelions picked
in beltane for positivity and energy)
Add your crystal.
Close the sachet by either taping it or tying it together with a piece of string.
3. Hold the sachet in your hands.
Again,
visualise all of your positive thoughts and good energy flowing through
your arms down into the sachet. Kiss it, if that’s your thing.
You
are done! Carry the sachet with you in your pocket, put it under your
pillow, do whatever you want with it. Hope you have a nice day c:
