This week on Wellness Wednesday I’m addressing the numerous diet and exercise plans out there.  If you’re like me you have spent years trying to get into shape with some success but no lasting effects. The problem for me, and I’m guessing for many of you out there is finding a diet and exercise plan that you want to follow for the long haul. So with that in mind I came up with this as the plan that I am following for the next couple months to find the balance of diet and exercise without reaching that burnout.Continue Reading

Prayer

One of the many changes coming to Christopaganism.com is that now we have a Prayer & Praise section. On this page you can submit any prayers you have for yourself or for someone in your life. The prayers do have to be approved by the site administrators so do allow some time for it to be approved, however if it hasn’t been posted in 24 hoursContinue Reading

We come to the last of the four primary elemental energies, Earth. Earth is an element of receptivity. Like Water we go into it and it accepts what is brought within it. As all elements change us and our ideas in their own way, Earth makes the most noticeable change for me. Earth is about solidifying, connecting, grounding, strength, birth, and death. Earth is where we come from and where we return to. Earth is the element to which we ground ourselves and in doing so connects us to everything else. Continue Reading

Last time we talked about the elemental energy of Fire and how it is a projective energy. In this post I want to discuss the first of the two receptive elemental energies that I come to during ritual. Water, as I already mentioned is a receptive energy, we go into the water as water will accept almost anything going into it.Continue Reading

I’m excited to announce the first post of the Wellness Wednesday series. I want to start this series by saying what Wellness Wednesdays are going to be, why I wanted to make this series, as well as give some legal disclaimers before going into this series. Wellness Wednesday is about taking care of yourself in all aspects. This isn’t to be confused with a diet or exercise plan, but really living your life to its fullest. It is about finding that balance of both your physical and spiritual life. This can include anything from chakra balancing to oils and herbs to cooking to exercise just to name a few. I wanted to start this series because when I approached my yearly physical training test for the Air Force in early April of this year. I realized how out of shape I have been. Even though I passed with a great score, that still didn’t hide the fact that I wasn’t taking care of my vessel of life. I’m 29 years old and I want to be sure that I remain here for many years to come. It isn’t enough to be here for those years though, I really want to have that quality in my physical life. As a witch I like to say, “if you don’t like the reality…change it”. This is me doing just that. If you have any topics that you would like to have covered in Wellness Wednesday leave a comment or email me a question through the Contact Me Page and I will try to get to it as soon as possible. Disclaimer: As a disclaimer, I want to say that I am not a health professional. I cannot stress enough that if you are looking to change your diet, start an exercise routine, or use/consume anything, consultContinue Reading
