🌿 Smudging Accessories
We’ll begin with one of my personal favorites: smudging. There’s something deeply therapeutic about cleansing your space with the earthy scent of sage or the sweet, grounding aroma of palo santo. It’s more than just burning herbs, it’s a spiritual reset.
Why do we smudge? Smudging clears away the negative vibes that can weigh you down. It creates space for fresh energy to flow in, making room for clarity and intention. Think of it as a cleanse for your soul and your surroundings.
How to Smuge: Light your smudge stick and let the smoke rise gently. Waft it around your space (or yourself!) while visualizing negativity melting away. Focus especially on areas that feel heavy or stagnant, like corners or workspaces.
Lotus Tip 🪷 Pair this ritual with a mantra like: “I let go of what no longer serves me, and I welcome love and abundance into my life.”

💎 Crystals and Gemstones
Oh, crystals! These beautiful, sparkly tools aren’t just eye candy, they’re your secret weapon for staying grounded, focused, and aligned. Each crystal carries its own unique energy to amplify your intentions and support your goals.
Why crystals? Crystals are like little cheerleaders for your soul. They vibrate at specific frequencies to help you align with the energy you want to invite into your life. Plus, let’s be honest, they look stunning on your desk or altar!
My top picks for your journey:
🩷 Rose Quartz: For opening your heart to love, self-compassion, and healing.
💛 Citrine: A radiant stone for manifesting abundance, success, and joy.
💜 Amethyst: Great for stress relief, clarity, and spiritual connection.
How to use them: Hold a crystal during meditation, tuck one in your pocket, or place a few around your home to create an energetic grid. Wherever they are, let them serve as a visual reminder of your intentions.
Lotus Tip 🪷 Keep your crystals close to the area of your life you’re looking to improve. For example, if you’re manifesting more sales, keep pyrite or citrine in your purse. And if you’re looking for love, wear necklaces with rose quartz charms close to your chest.

🕯️ Infused Candles
There’s just something magical about lighting a candle, isn’t there? It’s like an invitation for peace, focus, and intention to enter your space. Our infused candles are extra special because they’re made with purpose, often blended with herbs, essential oils, or even crystals to elevate their energy.
Why candles? Candles represent transformation, light, and warmth. Lighting one isn’t just an act; it’s a statement of your intentions. Whether it’s for love, abundance, or grounding, there’s a candle for every goal.
How to use them: Light your infused candle during a quiet moment, whether it’s while journaling, meditating, or simply relaxing. As the flame flickers, visualize your goals coming to life.
Lotus Tip 🪷 I’ve carefully selected candles at Healing Lotus that align with different energies, so you can choose the one that resonates most with you.

📖 Journaling
Oh my goodness, journaling is such a transformative activity. It’s where you can unpack your thoughts, dream up your future, and track your progress. Journaling isn’t just about putting pen to paper, it’s about connecting with your deepest self.
Why journal? Writing things down makes your goals feel real. It’s also a safe space to process emotions, gain clarity, and celebrate your wins (big or small). It’s like writing up a contract with the universe (or the other way around!).
How to start: If journaling feels overwhelming, keep it simple. Begin with prompts like:
“What am I most grateful for today?”
“What do I want to let go of this year?”
“What would my best self do in this moment?”
Lotus Tip 🪷 Pair your journaling practice with your favorite tea or a candle to create a cozy, intentional ritual that feels right for you.

🌈 Chakra Healing Guide
Chakras may sound mystical, but they’re simply energy centers within your body. When your chakras are balanced, you feel grounded, connected, and aligned with your purpose. A chakra healing guide can help you identify areas that need attention and give you practical tools to restore harmony.
Why Chakra Healing? Blocked or overactive chakras can leave you feeling off-balance, whether it’s emotionally, mentally, or physically. By focusing on chakra healing, you can restore that flow of energy and feel more “you.”
How to use it: Use a chakra guide to explore meditation techniques, affirmations, or yoga poses that correspond to each chakra. You’ll be amazed at how simple practices can make a big difference.
Lotus Tip 🪷 Our 7-Chakra Steps E-Book is designed to be approachable and effective, whether you’re a total beginner or well on your way!
