Bedridden Witch – Winter Edition

As someone who both practices witchcraft and is chronically ill, I find it important to be able to practice my craft even when I’m physically restricted, such as being bedridden. I hope this list inspires you to practice the craft in a way that fits your lifestyle ❤

• Create strands of pine cones to hang from your ceiling.
  
• Collect a jar of snow so you can always have snow water nearby.
  
• Drink things like seasonal tea, hot cocoa and apple cider.
  
• Burn pine/spruce/wintery scented candles.
  
• Get/make a small wreath and keep it indoors!
• Use ice cubes to connect to the cold.
  
• Keep clear quartz and snowflake obsidian around.
  
• Make paper snowflakes! Or find an app/website where you can do a digital one.
  
• Use your heat to draw sigils on frosted windows.
  
• Put a bird feeder outside your window so you get winter visitors!
  
• Use sigils that connect you to snow.
  
• Get empty glass ornaments and fill them with herbs/pine needles/things that remind you of winter and hang them around.
  
• Wear shimmery blue or white nail polish.
  
• Check out the winter decor section of thrift stores when you make it out of bed! (Or have someone send you pictures).
• Check out seasonal themed/winter aesthetic blogs.
• White fairy lights!
  
• Keep your curtains open during a full moon.
  
• Wind chimes remind me of everything. Including! Winter. 
  
• Get some cute little snow globes. 
  
• Decorate with winter colors! White, blue, silver, grey, dark green, etc.
  
• Use essential oils like mint and cinnamon.
  
• Listen to music that reminds you of winter/snow falling. Try instrumentals.
  
• Open the window for a minute to feel the cold air (do this early in the morning if you live somewhere warm).
  
• Watch videos of snow, ice forming, fire crackling, etc.
  
• Connect with any deities that are associated with winter. (I connect with Artemis because she is part of the pantheon that I worship)
  
• Watch shows/movies that remind you of the wintertime from when you were a kid.
  
• Keep a bonsai tree/jade plant. Something that naturally keeps it’s leaves even in winter.
