The Primal Art of Being Well — the WYLDE Way

How to Ritualize Your Self-Care: 10 Steps to 
being wild + well. KISS it: Keep It Simple, and Sacred.

Self-care doesn’t need to be 12 complicated steps and a drawer full of serums. It just needs to be yours — consistent, intentional, and deeply rooted in reverence.
Because being wild and well is primal. And when you feel good, you be good — and do good. It’s not selfish. It’s soul work.

10. Start with Awareness. Notice how you feel — physically, emotionally, energetically. Awareness is the doorway to transformation.

9. Cleanse the Day Away. Not just the skin, but the residue of stress, screens, and stories. Warm water. A tallow balm. A full exhale.

8. Ground in Nature. Touch a tree. Smell the pine. Stand barefoot. Invite the outside back in.

7. Hydrate Inside + Out. Drink water like it’s a blessing. Feed your skin with moisture-rich, elemental care.

6. Move Something. Shake. Sway. Stretch. Somatic movement is how the wild body says “I’m here.”

5. Set the Scene. Candles. Music. Scent. Sensory cues tell the body, “You are safe. You are sacred.”

4. Calm Your Nervous System. Warm oils. Cold spoons. Long exhales. Self-care is how we regulate and return.

3. Speak Beauty to Yourself. Choose tenderness. Out loud. In the mirror. You become what you repeat.

2. Protect What You’ve Tended. SPF is modern armor. So are boundaries. What you care for, you must also guard.  SPF is modern armor. So are boundaries. What you care for, you must also guard. A swipe of Soleya wherever the sunshines. Protection is a love language.

1. Come Home to Yourself. Maybe it’s a balm. A breath. A walk. A ritual. It doesn’t need to be everything — just a little something true for you.

This is Your Wild Return. Self-care is not selfish. It’s how we honour the gift of being here — in this skin, on this land, in this moment. Feel good. Be good. Do good.

Because being wild and well is primal.
