    Day 7: Don’t Say Fuck (Again) #DoMagick

    Today’s morning yoga (I did a video, Rodney Yee’s Yoga for Energy & Stress Relief) brought about a profound realization about the schedule. As many of you know my schedule kind of spun out of control this summer and I’ve been overwhelmed by it. But I’m slowly regaining control with the help of Colleen Story’s Overwhelmed Writer Rescue. Today’s realization…

    Day 4: Water = Counseling #DoMagick

    After an upset in my schedule yesterday (and some needed time away from the computer), I am finishing up my work from yesterday, today. So far I’ve managed to do my water meditation and yoga, which seemed to open wide my intuition and empathy, and made me receptive to the rest of today’s work. I’ve also managed to answer a…

    Well, my friend, Will, wasn’t half wrong. Corpse Pose sent me straight to Zzzzzzzzzzzzz land last night. My first day of this #DoMagick challenge was dedicated to earth. I made it to corpse pose while I listened to a chakra balancing video. Needless to say, the subsequent meditation on Belial’s sigil didn’t happen. Ha! What I’ve always found interesting about…

    Flow Sequences #DoMagick

    So I’m starting to develop my flow sequences. I am using The Yoga Deck by Olivia Miller to help me design the flow sequences. The deck includes 50 cards. 12 include breathing exercises/meditations, and the rest are various poses. To help me design my “Daemonic Elements” flow series’,  I separated the cards into logical (to me) Earth, Air, Fire, Water…
