Self care is not selfish.
In fact, self care is necessary. And it looks different for every single one of us. Self care takes many forms. And none of them are selfish. If you are nurturing your mind, body, and spirit, then you are engaging in self care.
What we mean when we say "radical self care"
We are talking about nurturing not only our own minds, bodies, and spirits, but those of the world around us. That is how powerful making your own self care tools are. You become the change you want to see in the world around you.
Unlike most self care rituals, ours are quick and easy to implement
Our self care rituals are designed to easily fit into your busy day. And because you design them, you will be using things you already have on hand. This also makes for more powerful and effective self care!

Frequently Asked Questions
Where am I supposed to find the time to read a 27-page PDF, let alone implement it?
Think of the booklet as a resource guide. It is mostly tables of correspondences so that you can easily find a tool that you have on hand and use that to further the work you are doing.
Why should I prioritize self care?
Because you would be surprised how much more powerful your work can be when it is backed up with genuine intention and just a sprinkle of magic.
How quickly will I see results?
That depends on YOU. The more of yourself you pour into a little ritual, no matter how small, the more powerful the work will be.
I don't have tarot cards or an extensive spice rack, what can I do?
Ultimately, your intention is what matters. Your work should not be hindered by having to source 30 different herbs or crystals, tarot decks for different purposes, or the limitations of your schedule.
But Jen, I don't wanna!
Activism is exhausting and has a really high burnout rate. The more you fill your cup, the more likely you will be to see the work through and stay in it until we actualize the world you envision!
Ultimately, self care is political, and resting is an act of resistance.
