Creating a magical practice doesn't have to be complicated or carefully curated. What if we strived for authenticity in our practice rather than perfection? Engaging in simple daily rituals is arguably more impactful and more enjoyable than embarking on the occasional complicated craft. Remove the limiting expectations and allow yourself to settle into an authentic (possibly messy) practice of your own making. Ponder how this might look in your own life while we enjoy nature's perfection on this incredible fall day!
