Did you catch the full moon last night? Well technically it happened this morning, but it's not too late to practice some self-care around the full moon.

 

May 23, 2024 marks The Flower Moon -- a full moon that symbolizes blooming and renewal. As its luminous glow bathes the earth, it's the perfect opportunity for us to reflect on our own growth and well-being. At Relyt, we believe in the power of nature and the importance of nurturing ourselves, both physically and emotionally. Here are some self-care rituals to help you harness the energy of the Flower Moon and integrate wellness into your daily routine.

 

1. Moonlit Herbal Tea Ritual 🌿☕

Under the enchanting light of the Flower Moon, treat yourself to an uplifting cup of the one for mood. Our floral herbalist-formulated blend is designed to soothe and uplift your mind and body, while also helping you unwind from the day’s stresses. As you sip your tea, take a moment to reflect on the areas of your life that need nurturing and set intentions for personal growth.

How to Enhance the Ritual:

Find a quiet space where you can enjoy your tea undisturbed.

Light a candle or some incense to create a peaceful ambiance.

Focus on your breathing, inhaling deeply and exhaling slowly.

Think about the goals you want to achieve and visualize them coming to fruition.

 

2. Flower Moon Bath Soak 🛁🌸

Transform your bath into a luxurious spa-like experience with a few simple additions. Add Epsom salts, magnesium flakes, a few drops of your favorite essential oil, and fresh flower petals to your bathwater. This not only makes for a visually stunning soak but also helps to relax your muscles and uplift your spirits.

Recommended Essential Oils:

Lavender: For relaxation and stress relief.

Rose: To enhance feelings of love and compassion.

Chamomile: To soothe and calm your mind.

 

3. Journaling Under the Moonlight 📓✨

Journaling is a powerful tool for self-discovery and emotional healing. Use the energy of the Flower Moon to delve deeper into your thoughts and feelings. Write about your dreams, aspirations, and any challenges you’re facing. Reflect on your journey so far and the personal growth you’ve achieved. 

Journaling Prompts:

What are you most grateful for in this moment?

What areas of your life are blooming, and which ones need more attention?

What intentions do you want to set for the upcoming month?

 

4. Moonlit Meditation and Breathwork 🌕🧘‍♀️

Find a serene spot outside or by a window where you can see the full moon. Practice a guided meditation or simple breathwork exercises to align your energies with the moon’s calming presence. This practice can help you feel more grounded, centered, and in tune with the natural world.

Simple Breathwork Exercise:

Sit comfortably and close your eyes.

Inhale deeply through your nose for a count of four.

Hold your breath for a count of four.

Exhale slowly through your mouth for a count of four.

Repeat this cycle for several minutes, focusing on the sensation of your breath.
