When Vata whirls, stir something grounding

The wind is wild, the veil is thin, and your thoughts might be swirling like leaves in a storm. Vata season is here—and while it brings creativity and movement, it can also leave us feeling scattered, dry, or restless.

So let’s brew something grounding. Something rich. Something witchy.

This week’s Potion of the Week is a cozy, heart-opening blend:

✨ Velvet Root Cocoa

• 1 cup oat or almond milk

• 1 tsp raw cacao powder

• ½ tsp ashwagandha (for grounding)

• ¼ tsp cinnamon

• 1 tsp tahini or almond butter

• Drizzle of maple syrup or date syrup

• Optional: splash of rose water or pinch of rose petals

Warm gently, stir slowly (clockwise for grounding), and sip while wrapped in something soft. Whisper your intention into the steam. Let the richness anchor you.

Pair it with:

🧹 Witch’s Broom Twist (seated twist with arms forward)

🕯️ Candlelit journaling: What am I releasing? What am I calling in?

🌬️ Alternate nostril breathing to calm the winds within

You don’t need to chase clarity. You can summon it—with cocoa, breath, and a little moonlight.

With velvet and magic,

Andra
