Fun, easy read with good self-care tips, often but not always related to magic. Some fun ideas I'll definitely try out.
I will have to buy a copy to keep. It's a great little book and I can't wait to try the recipes that are in it. Some of the crafts are new to me and some I already know. It's a personal helper to help you learn and get more practice.
This book felt more real and tangible than a lot of self-care books. If I see one more “take a week long spa vacation to somewhere tropical” recommendation I might scream and this book stays away from that. Instead it feels accessible and realistic.
I enjoyed this book. It has some good ideas for self-care regardless of your spiritual preferences. It was calming just to read, so it definitely served its purpose.

Crystals, essential oils, and witch-themed mindfulness...
For someone who has been practicing mindfulness and witchcraft for a while this book contained little I didn't already know in terms of information, however there were some tidbits in there that were new. It is also important to note that while some of things may seem obvious, sometimes it requires us to read the obvious to take note!
On the other hand it is a whistle stop tour for every kind of self-care you can imagine and this will be great for beginners. Whilst the paragraphs introducing you to the various practices are quite short the book then includes a wealth of recipes, affirmations, spells and crafts. It is therefore also a useful book to keep around for reference.
Murphy-Hiscock also includes a bibliography and there are plenty of references to other books for further reading if you find yourself interested in a certain area.
It was also a joy to read, written plainly and in a way that is easily understood. The cover is also very appealing and would look great on a shelf.

I really liked this. It was broken down into 5 chapters with easily digestible information. I think I'll be looking for a used copy of this to keep on my shelf as I need inspiration or want to look again at a suggested self-care practice!
Interesting! Lots of useful and easily applicable tips in everyday life. Some hints are more obvious, but the mysticism makes it seem more innovative. I enjoyed the most the meditation techniques.
Pretty basic book. Not a lot, if not even nothing, new in there, apart from the magickal parts of the book. I really did not like how weirdly this book jumped back and forth. Mainly forth. A lot of vital things mentioned earlier in the book weren’t even discussed until many chapters later - at that point I already forgot what I was supposed to use it for!
The DIY sections are sweet, but sometimes lacks visuals so badly. They describe how to weave something (along those lines) and honestly, I’d have to reread that part a few times to get what I’m supposed to do. Some pictures would’ve helped haha.
Other than that there have been passages that serve as really great reminders and the book also had some sweet ideas on how to introduce some magick into your self-care.
