Rituál

This ritual is a clear example of what we can label as “everyday magic” (in its western form) based on new-age concepts of spirituality. Here we see the elements of magic itself (candles), self-psychotherapy (as the imagining of the healing process and autosuggestion), and simple relaxation practices. The thing that makes this ritual spiritual is calling the “Goddess.” As the author says, it can be any name that is personally associated with the spiritual realm: Mother Nature, an angel, etc. So, the only things you need are your imagination, ability to calm down your mind, and concentration. Without all the “magical” elements, it looks like a simple psychological “releasing of all the bad stuff” technique.
