    this video is a big comfort to me. i’m glad you pointed out how overlooked disability pride month is, and the huge complex mixed stigma around disability from the general public. i’m a chronically ill disabled witch too, we have so much more power than we know.
    i know this is unwarranted but i’ll say it to every disabled witch i meet in the hopes they try it to. i have multiple chronic illnesses and had major depressive disorder, plus anxiety disorders. my saving grace that got me out of years of being bedridden and housebound, out of severe chronic pain, was homeopathy, especially on an ancestral level. that would be a wonderful thing for any disabled witch to incorporate into their practice and research, as it can actually rewire your trauma patterns and genetics while also getting you excited about witchcraft! i hope someone sees this and tries it. of course it’s not a cure all but it peels back layers of trauma, curses, illnesses, patterns.
    you’re doing amazingly regardless. i know how disabling anxiety alone can be, and then adding fatigue and chronic pain is just horrible and suffocating. the fact that you can express all of this and make these videos is a huge success. you should feel proud of yourself and the ways you’ve pushed yourself so far. i hope that hekate and any other forces you work with can help you regain some bravery and autonomy! i know what it’s like to lose independence and power due to illness, but i really can see you healing and pushing through this, slowly and with grace and self love.

    This brought me to tears. In all the time I've spent watching witchy RUclipsrs, I've never found a witch I could truly relate to. I'm so grateful to have found you. I am disabled, a new part of my life, and it has affected my practice.
    A year ago, I went from hiking in the forest to hospitalization a month later and then medical rehab to teach me how to walk again. I'm bound to a walker in my home and a wheelchair outside because I'm such a huge fall risk that I could seriously hurt myself. I get exhausted easily and sometimes spend days at a time barely able to get out of bed. This is due to functional neurological disorder, and I also have bipolar disorder, PTSD, and ADHD--all of which contribute to intense anxiety and doomsday downward spirals. This means that nature, my happy place, is not easily accessible anymore. Most parks don't have wheelchair-friendly paths (wheelchair accessible does not always equal wheelchair friendly, which was a very frustrating discovery) so I cannot go into the woods. It's left me feeling disconnected from the source of my spiritual energy and has seriously impacted my magical practice.
    I barely leave the house and can't do many things I enjoyed even a year ago. It's limited my magical practice in a way I never imagined and is continually frustrating. I'm trying to give myself grace, and it's slowly getting better. I'm so, so happy to have found a witchy RUclipsr who is disabled and I can relate to more than the other creators I watch. Subbed!!

      Hello new friend welcome to the butterfly family. You Have been through so much and it's no wonder it's left you feeling lost and disconnected. I hope you find ways to connect to the Forest. I love to watch people walking in the forest here on RUclips it's not the same but it helps. Xx

    I cant wait to see you channel progress. as long as the ideas and videos that come after really resonate with you then there is really only the tiniest that could go improper, but as long as you stay true to you then hey ^_^
    disability witch tip though, the herbs in the food is, I think, under rated. I used to just take thread and wrap it around itself and then cut the ends and then tie off the middle bit and purposed them for energy amplification, or even going as far to use them for drawing down the moon, or even calling in the charge of the ethereal beings then now that I think about it. "vrishika batteries".

    Even as someone who isn't a Witch so much of what you said in this video resonated with me, m'love! I live with GAD and depression as well as my HSD and I truly understand what you said about losing confidence and getting anxious about things you used to do easily. Disability does rob us of so much, but it is important to see the opportunities it gives us too. Thank you for reminding me to give myself grace and be patient that everything happens in its time. Love you! xx (PS I'm another person who's never heard of soul contracts - yes please to adding it to your topic list for future videos xx)

      It can be so hard when you are in pain or struggling that’s why my personal witchcraft journey is very much based in self care I have got an accessible witchcraft playlist. If you have any video requests just ask xx ruclips.net/p/PLKKJcpRYO99DsqOFBCWTLSEGa1u5MgWPK

    Thank you, I needed this now. Currently recovering from burnout from work. My GAD, JHS and fatigue are manageable with medication and self-care, just having an issue with the self care part. I never considered my hidden disabilities can affect my craft. Now things are starting to make sense. I would like to know more about our souls choose which life to lead and soul contracts (not heard of this before) . Take care x
