- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5This book was very informative. It has lots of useful information inside it. One downside is that a lot of the spells/self care acts require materials that are expensive or difficult to obtain in everyday life.

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Personally as a witch that makes her own spells I didn't really get anything from this book, it's just things like add this herb to your bath or tea to help you relax. It may suit a newbie witch that's just starting and is interested in self care/relaxation techniques but that's about it.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This Book Is Absolutely Lovely. It Is Full Of Meditation, Rituals, Recipes, And Crafts. The Book Is All Love And Light. Being A Patient Of Anxiety And Depression From Last Three Years This Book Has Helped Me A Lot Personally. It Has Recipes For Lip Scrubs, Bath Bombs And Herbal Teas. This Book Is Great For Both Witches And Non-Witches.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A really amazing book that can help every human on this earth witch or not. Thank you!!!
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This is a charming little book that frames self-care in terms of witchery. The subtitle: Magical Ways to Pamper, Soothe, and Care for Your Body and Spirit. It delivers as advertised. I am just starting my spiritual exploration and have been struggling for quite a long while to engage in self-care. I thought this book might be an engaging way to push over two tile cascades (dominoes FTW!).It's divided into 5 chapters: self-care and magic, mental and emotional self-care, physical self-care, spiritual self-care, and household self-care, bookended by the introduction, bibliography, and index. It's got kind, compassionate advice and suggestions for developing habits to build self-esteem, reduce stress, and bring meaning into daily life. And lots of recipes! For personal care products, food, teas, aromatherapy blends, incense, craft projects. And spells/rituals, which are basically recipes with a spiritual dimension, to go along with an assortment of mindfulness practices. My only frustration with the book is that all of these recipes and rituals call for an assortment of materials, and it would have been nice to have included those in the index. Instead, I added sticky notes to the inside cover creating ad hoc indices for stones, oils, herbs, and incense ingredients. Based on these, the most useful items are bergamot, clear quartz, frankincense, jasmine, lavender, rose quartz, sandalwood, ylang ylang, and rose. Plus, lots of different colors of candles. This is a very hands-on book that offers lots of things to try out. I've already started doing some of them and look forward to trying out more. The food recipes are probably the least interesting to me as I already have an extensive cookbook collection and am very comfortable with feeding the body--I really need help with feeding the soul. Hopefully, this little guide will continue to nudge me toward more intentional daily practices. It might help you too, or at least give you ideas to think about.
