Wiccan Rituals To Improve Your Life

By Jana Serrano


Humans are creatures of habit. For one's lifestyle to improve, the key is to form good habits and rituals. Wiccan rituals to Improve Your Life need not be religious in nature. Rituals are simple habits that are meditative in nature that in a way resets your messy state of mind.

Rituals are meditative in nature in that they iterate a thought or an act that is meaningful to us. They help us focus and then clear our minds. It is not a paradox. They also help us reconnect to the world and to others. It is all about personal ethics and values.

Self-improvement is always an important goal, although not so easy to implement. Old, bad habits get in the way. You have to make a conscious effort to begin a program that will survive the onslaught of old ways. You can't do it if you are not relaxed and ready to absorb change.

Starting new rituals means assessing where you are at this point in your life. What are your coping mechanisms? Do they need alteration? Self-observation can be very revealing. You can also ask friends and family. Do they hate your smoking or overweight? Do you shop too much? You must desire healthy and more frugal habits as a matter of course.

Building good habits and removing old ones is a good form of personal therapy. Everyone can do it, and so they should. Make a list of the positive and negative aspects of your life and as you get rid of them, you can check them off. Set up notes as reminders to yourself in your tablet or cell phone and stick to your plan.

Starting with a habit will improve the chances of you continuing it. After all, you made the habit yourself. The key is to tweak it and be conscious that it is your ritual. Every time you do it, you must alter your state of mind consciously.

If you have an unhealthy ritual, do not stop it, replace it. Stopping it abruptly will only cause you to rebound. Replace it with something you appreciate more. If you like coffee better than nicotine, treat yourself to gourmet coffee every time you do not smoke. If you smoke at 3pm, make important appointments at 3 pm. This way, you will alter your habits carefully.

Rituals should be enjoyable whereas all habits are not. They are just routine behavior we have learned to express. Make your new rituals inviting, like a cup of hot tea, and healthful, like a visit to the gym. Little things mean a lot. It doesn't have to be elaborate.

Consistency creates a new habit. They say about 21 days max. Learn to wait patiently for a new ritual to happen. Then it will spring into your life like fresh, rushing water, splashing you with revitalizing drops.

When all is said and done, weight the new rituals and compare them to the old. How do they make you feel? You should feel satisfaction at the degree of self-improvement you shown to yourself and others. Pat yourself on the back.
