Practically Pagan - An Alternative Guide to Magical Living by Maria DeBlassie

3.5

This is a self-help book, not a religious book. DeBlassie shares a lot of her story intermixed with tips about living a mindful and mundanely magical life. Her tips were decent, but not very unique, and the book was very repetitive. I liked the way it was organized; most of the sections had things you should unlearn and things you should relearn. She had good prompts for ways to make yourself feel more magical and to go against the grain. I felt like she really emphasized introversion to the point it felt like she was implying introverts are oppressed. My neurodivergent extroversion is not celebrated. I think it was overall a decent book for learning self-care and slow living, but it could have been edited down a lot.
