Self - Confidence and Self - Love

Was having some trouble pep talking myself. There are times when I feel super confident and comfortable in my body and then there are times that I find everything to compare...I don't like being there and usually I can tell myself to stop being silly...

I was having more difficulty that carried over into the morning so I decided to use the universe for assistance. This would be the first time since I started my witchy journey that I have asked for something for me. I created a shower satchel and hung it up in shower with me and a spell jar for self love and self confidence to hang in my space.

Satchel

Chamomile - soothing, self acceptance, self confidence

Lavender flower - inner peace, self confidence

Lemongrass - promote openness, cleansing, sexuality

Small yellow circle felt pad - yellow for joy, positive energy

Rose quartz - calming, love, self confidence

Spell Jar

Red rose buds - love, beauty

Lemongrass oil and flowers - promote openness, cleansing, sexuality

Lavender oil and herb - inner peace, self confidence

Full Moon water

Purple/Reddish wax

I used the satchel in the shower and imagined those feelings of confidence and sensuality wash over me...it also smelled great 😃

The spell jar is hanging inside of my witchy work space to remind me that I am confident and that the most important love is self love 💕

Ingredients  

2 cups chicken stock, unsalted, preferably homemade

1 ½ cups coconut milk, (see note 1)

½ teaspoon table salt

1 lb chicken thigh, boneless skinless, cut 1-inch pieces (see note 2)

1 stalk lemongrass, bottom half only, smashed and cut in 2-inch pieces

12 thin slices galangal, (see note 3)

5 makrut lime leaves, twisted to bruise and torn into big chunks

1-3 Thai chilies, to taste, smashed until broken or cut into large pieces

2 tablespoon fish sauce

1 teaspoon finely chopped palm sugar,  or granulated sugar

5.5 oz oyster mushrooms, torn into bite-size pieces

2 ½ tablespoon lime juice

Chopped green onion and/or cilantro, for garnish

Jasmine rice, for serving, optional

Notes

For a lighter soup, you can add reduce the coconut milk by about ½ cup and increase the chicken stock by the same amount.

If using chicken breast, cut into ½-inch thick slices and marinate in 1 tablespoon of fish sauce while you're prepping. Skip step #1 as chicken breast does not need to be simmered and is best cooked only briefly, and omit the salt. Reduce the chicken stock to 1 ½ cups and add it at step #2. Add the chicken breast to the soup at the end along with the mushrooms in step #3 and cook for a couple of minutes just until the chicken is done. Be sure to taste and adjust the salt at the end!

The lemongrass, galangal and makrut lime leaves are meant for infusion only and not meant to be eaten. Please inform your guests or remove them before serving.

Instructions 

Bring chicken stock to a boil, then add the salt and chicken thigh. Simmer gently for 15 minutes or until chicken is fork tender.

Add the coconut milk, lemongrass, galangal, makrut lime leaves, chilies, mushrooms, about half of the fish sauce, and sugar. Simmer for 5 minutes to infuse.

Taste and add more fish sauce as needed. Turn off the heat and add about 2 tablespoon of the lime juice, then taste and add more as needed. Top with green onions and/or cilantro.

Serve with jasmine rice as part of a larger Thai meal, or enjoy on its own. See this video about how to eat a Thai meal for how Thai people serve soup! (Note: the herbs are for infusion only and are not meant to be eaten. Either remove them before serving or inform your guests.)

I have a suggestion:

Put a whole entire stalk of lemongrass in your mouth, nothing bad could possibly happen if you put whole entire stalk of lemongrass in your mouth
