Ritual As Remedy : Embodied Practices for Soul Care

In this evocative and inspiring guide to ritual as healing balm for the psyche and soul, Mara Branscombe shares potent self-care and soul-care rituals that awaken freedom, joy, depth of spirit, and wild, untamed self-love. Harnessing the power of imagery and poetry, she shows how ritual can serve as a way to ground yourself, invite in the new, let go of what needs to be shed, and tap into your own inner powers. She explains how ritual invokes a unique magic that allows you to step outside of time and experience something beyond the mundane, connecting you to your inner mystic, the unseen realms, the sacred turning points in your life, and the truth of your soul's calling.

The author offers rituals, ceremonies, and practices to connect with the pagan wheel of the year and the five elements, revealing how to harness the power of each element to invoke transformation. Exploring the transformational wisdom of the moon's cycle, Branscombe explains how to attune to the moon's rhythms and offers rituals for drawing energy from both full moon and new moon. She shares ancient and modern rituals and specific spiritual formulas to embody a loving existence, adapt to change, dance with your shadow self, work with grief, grow your intuition, dismantle limiting beliefs, heal toxic patterns, and connect with your body to find peace, inner strength, unconditional love, and happiness. She offers detailed instructions for each ritual and ceremony as well as for the many transformative and healing practices in the book, such as guided meditations and visualizations, breathwork, altar creation, and discovery of your personal empowerment mantras.

Presenting an invitation to awaken your inner powers, and reclaim your soul's purpose, this guide to ritual as spiritual self-care offers practices to help you activate heart-centred living, generate lasting transformation, and manifest your dreams.
