Welcome back to White Rose of Avalon my Darlings. Today’s post is my list of simple self-love rituals to embrace the energy of Aphrodite Venus this Aphrodite April! Each simple ritual is listed in one of the five tips below. Without further ado, let’s get onto the simple self-love ritual tips!
Tip 1: Take Some Time to Meditate on What You Love About Yourself
~This one is at the core of embracing self-love and self-acceptance. Although I know that to some people the whole idea of meditating on what you love about yourself may sound hokey, or even narcissistic, I assure you that it is neither. In fact, if this is done after deep Shadow work confronting issues of self-worth and feeling not good enough (which so many of us struggle with) it is a potent way to begin to alchemize the Shadow and become more centered in our ability to accept ourselves and how we are transforming!
Tip 2: Self-Love Ritual Baths to Feel into Your Sensuality
~The second tip is about feeling into your body and what truly brings you sensual pleasure. Having a ritual bath centered around self-love really helps to tap into our bodies! This can be as innocent or as sexual as you please, because the purpose of this Bath Ritual is to get in tune with your body and your desires, including your dreams for the future!
Tip 3: Simple Beauty Rituals to Embrace Inner Harmony: Facial Masques, Lotions, Skin and Hair Tonics
~The third tip is to embrace simple beauty rituals, they can be whatever makes you feel inner harmony. For example, facial masques, lotions applied with tender care, and skin and hair tonics used to nurture ourselves are some of my favorite beauty rituals! Any application of a beauty product can be turned into a mini-ritual for this purpose.
Tip 4: Sensual Slow Flow and Yin Yoga to Get in Tune with Your Body
~The fourth tip is to do sensual forms of Yoga. I love slow flow, yin yoga, and kundalini yoga for this ritual of getting truly in tune with my own body! You can also do other forms of Yoga with tuning into your sensuality in mind if you prefer, but it is my personal preference to do the styles I have suggested. No matter what, the most important thing is to feel good in your own skin!
Tip 5: Bellydance to Get in Tune with Your Sensuality
~The final tip is to do Bellydance to get in tune with your sensuality! I truly love Womb Wisdom Bellydance for this, but I have found that any form of Fusion Bellydance is also excellent for this task. As with my Yoga tip above, the most important thing is to feel good in your own skin!
