Conjure calm and summon serenity with Calming Magic, a soothing introduction to the healing energy of mystical practices, aromatherapy blends, crystal rituals, and more.

Use the power of intention, ritual, and spellwork to craft a more peaceful, connected life with Calming Magic. Harnessing ancient wisdom and profound magic, this enchanted guide pairs mindfulness with mysticism to help readers support the body, mind, and heart in times of stress.

Organised into three sections: Peace, Clarity, and Creativity, Calming Magic offers a pathway to tranquillity, from quieting anxious thoughts and focusing the mind to cultivating the imagination. Each section incorporates magical practices that fortify the body (with teas, yoga practices, and home remedies), the mind (with meditations, spells, and feng shui), and the heart (with crystals, tarot readings, and rituals).

With primers on the foundations of mystical practices and creative DIYs to customise rituals and spells, this beautiful volume brings magic and harmony into today's hectic world.
