Oh my… I was quite the fish 
when I was younger & you just can’t get me out of the water 
once I’m in there. I have medical things & I remember just being like… there has to be something that relieves this pain for me. I started going swimming 
at least for an hour each day in the summer. It was amazing & I felt so good for at least 24 hours later. So I made it a habit each day of the summer that I could & my daughter would come with me. She’s a Pisces 
sun & also a little mermaid 
I will go out on the boat 
& just hop off the back when we get to where we are going & float around 
I’m so sorry for your loss 
I can see how that would be comforting though, it would feel the same way to me. I have done similar things when it rains 
& gone to my back porch or walked to my backyard. I would go to the beach during storms to watch the water. I can say that water is very healing & has the same type of effects for me. I find it very calming too.
As far as the practices… you’ll find the things that spark your flame 
Still being a bit new, I would say if you haven’t gone completely through the courses, those are a great place to start 
Remember, you don’t need to have or even buy everything that you will see or hear about being used by others. A lot of times, you already have something in your home or area that you can use & designate for your practice. If you have to substitute something that’s perfectly fine. I do it all the time. Like ALL the time (IE: Candles 
… birthday candles, tealights, votives, tapers, pillars, jar can all be used & used as substitutes including battery operated candles, an image/video of a candle. A white candle can be used in place of any color candle if you don’t have a specific color available too)
If you come across something that interests you, whatever it may be, learn about it, research it, and/or try it out. See if it’s something that works for you & how you feel & believe. We have the Weekly Challenges & those are great ways to try things & see if they work for you 
Search the forum there is something on just about every topic & within the replies are probably some good information for you too. 
We have so many witches 
from all over the world 
Each one has their own practice I feel pretty confident saying no 2 are the same 
So if you have any questions or want to share anything feel free to ask away or share! I’m continually learning things. I’m so curious about things when they interest me. Don’t try to rush it or take on too much or you may hit a wall or burn out. (been there done that too) Whatever your pace is, that’s what is right for you. None of us know everything & it’s constant learning & evolving process. I’m in an overhaul type of way right now! Going through my room & things… releasing what I don’t use or need, organizing what is something I use or is beneficial. Reorganizing things here. But adding things back in literally… 1 thing at a time. So no worries on finding your footing & what is something that will click. It will come as it is meant for you
