I believe exercise to be a great grounding technique.
Training the flesh. Willing it to your desire. A magical process. I believe physical training of any kind is such a solid way of acknowledging and building intent, discipline and work. I see willing yourself and discipline as being like meditation. Defying our natural inclination to atrophy. Will yourself to the gym, then to force the effort into your true will … each time you do this, you are building insane amounts of energy . Does anyone else utilize this process in there practice? I charge items, tools,sigils, and give offerings to entities while doing fitness . I treat the whole process as a ritual with GREAT results. It’s like a triafecta for me . I build energy , I give energy , and I ground . Definitely an act utilizing mind, body , and spirit. Everything from the gym attire to the water I drink is emplimented in my daily ritual. Does anyone else use this sacred act in there process? If so can you elaborate on your practice , and how your experience with it is ? Thank you all for reading.
I think it’s an incredible idea. I also recommend using alchemical processes while eating for insane benefit. Similar to this.
AW HELL YES you are speaking my language here. I find exercising is an important component of my spiritual and mental health. While exercising, sometimes my mind goes somewhere else, like, I don’t know if you’re familiar with the show Battlestar Galactica but its similar (though not quite as pronounced) as the Cylon Projection ability - where they can literally overlay their entire environment with the surroundings they choose. More often than not I’m in a forest walking around. When I’m hyperfocused, I often see my higher self performing rituals in the woods or the gods I work with there.
Exercising can be used as an offering to the gods as well, praising the bodies we were born with. I think this is a great post, and I wish more people would talk about this!
Battle star Galactica was the truth brother. Thank you for the kind words duskwalker . I believe your picking up what I’m putting down. Thank you for the reply. I was sure this post was a dud lol. I was positive other magicians would be able to see the value here. Look at my boy Nolan added as well about injecting dark alchemy in the food while preparing it.
Hey it happens, I’ve made a few posts where I’m like… I THOUGHT SOMEONE WOULD FIND THIS USEFUL!
But yeah, I am absolutely picking up what you’re putting down. We can honor the gods by honoring ourselves. And we can honor ourselves by taking care of ourselves. I hear you loud and clear. Keep kickin’ ass!
I’ll be rootin for ya my dude!
