Alcohol + Zero Waste, Witchcraft, and Neurodivergence

If you prefer to view this content in Notion, follow the link here My partner and I went to a wine tasting yesterday and it’s got me thinking about how alcohol fits into all the Coven principles. From an herbal medicine perspective, it’s very utilitarian.

All of these tips can be loosely translated to all online...
