In this week’s episode, Kala and I crack open the foundation of magical self-care: energetic hygiene. We’re talking about the five core practices every witch should know—Grounding, Cleansing, Shielding, Clearing Your Space, and Replenishing—and we don’t just name-drop them. We break each one down, share how we actually use them in real life, and talk through our favorite ways to keep our energy clean, clear, and protected.

This isn’t about aesthetic rituals or spiritual perfection; it’s about making these practices sustainable, intuitive, and aligned with your real, messy life. Whether you’re brand new to the path or you’re trying to strengthen your energetic roots, this episode is a practical deep dive to help you protect your magic.

So grab your tea, light your candle (or don't), and join us for part one of Lesson Two on the Tempering Path.

✨ Next week: Join us for Energy Care Unfiltered – Priestess Q&A and Honest Reflections. We’ll be answering your questions and getting raw with our own answers to the reflection prompts from this lesson. The good, the gritty, the “oh damn, that one hit me” moments. Real talk, real practice.

This path isn’t about perfection; it’s about presence. Let’s begin.

More on Kala:

Kala is a co-priestess in The Temple of the Unseen Flame, alongside my beloved co-conspirator and co-priestess Pagan. I’m just a plain-Jane kind of girl from the Southern US, raised on cornbread, front porch stories, and in the rhythm of Southern Baptist Sundays. My path to Paganism has been long, winding, often surprising, and full of unexpected turns. I didn’t find it all at once. The more I leaned into my dreams, my intuition, and my experiences with spirit, the more the world began to shimmer with meaning. The gods, the dead, the land – all of it was speaking. 

These days, I’m a priestess of death and rebirth, of sovereignty and sacred mischief. I walk with spirits. I work with Gods who burn away illusions and shine light into shadow. My magic is devotional and practical, grounded and ecstatic. I believe in sacred rest, in the wisdom of the body, and in building spiritual homes for people like us, the seekers, the weirdos, the ones who never stopped asking questions. Now, I walk a path of devotion, sovereignty, and mystery with The Unseen Flame.

When I am not doing my priestess work, I can be found crocheting, reading, or playing games with my friends on Discord.
