Simple protection practice

A calm boundary before a difficult day.

What you’ll need

Nothing.

How it goes

  1. 1

    Ground yourself with three slow breaths.

  2. 2

    Picture a soft light or a circle of green around you, at arm's length.

  3. 3

    Decide what it lets in: warmth, kindness, useful criticism.

  4. 4

    Decide what it keeps at a distance today.

  5. 5

    Let the image fade, but keep the decision.

Protection work in Wicca is usually about focus and boundaries, not fear. If something is genuinely frightening you, talk to a person you trust.

Come back whenever it suits you.
