Hey guys, I have Science exams in May and June, I was wondering if any of you amazing guys have an effective spell that'll help me keep motivated and study really well so all the important revision stay in my head, that'll help me get an A* (pronounced A star) grade that's 90%-100%. Thank you and rudeness is not needed as I was merely asking and I'm a total newbie so you guys don't need to waste your time acting like psychos.
I find that the best thing for me to do when trying to stay motivated is affirmations. They aren't exactly a spell, but they do have intent and you definitely put energy into them.
An example of an affirmation is "I am motivated to study and do well on my Science exams." Write this, say it, feel it, meditate on it. All of these things will help you keep directed and motivated towards your goal. But keep in mind, you have to do the work. None of this will work without you putting in the effort.
Also, if they are available for you, look up stones and herbs that can increase concentration and motivation. Also, stressing yourself out is counter-productive, so make sure you take time to yourself. You will retain information much better if you are relaxed, well rested, and focused.
If you work with gems or stones, Blue Calcite is a wonderful stone to help with school and studying as well calming nerves, helps with astral travel and deity/spirit guide communication and physical communication and can help with anxiety.
Physically, It can help heal the throat, lungs, joints, high blood pressure, thyroid, and artheritis. Please note that this is for spiritual support healing only and should not be treated as a perscripiton or medication.
Alternatively, you can always make a gem elixir. However, since this is Calcite we're dealing with, it's very important that you do not suberge the Calcite directly in water as it can dissolve and turn toxic. Not all gems do this, but some gems and stones can turn your water toxic if directly submerged. Most gems ending in "-ite", such as Malachite, Pyrite, or Fluorite will slightly dissolve in water and intoxicate your elixir.
Instead, take an empty, dry water bottle, put the Calcite in it, close the lid tight, and submerge it in water in the sunlight for about twelve hours so it's able to charge. After that, take out the Calcite, set it aside, then pour the water into the water bottle. Now you have your Calcite elixer!
You can take some peppermint oil and put it on your wrist while you study. When you go to take your test, make sure you put some peppermint oil on again beforehand. The smell of it will help jog your memory of the notes. Enjoy!
It is like listening to music when you are studying or doing another activity, but it isn't recognized among different psychologists and other areas of sciences (social or not) unlike the method I listed. For one, you can't listen to music while you take a test in most areas. For two, you probably might start jumping and dancing to the song instead (it can also be a distraction). I say this as an example though because a lot of people tend to think that music helps them remember things so it gives an idea of what to relate to.
Our brains like to focus on certain parts more so than others especially those that we do or use most often and cannot prevent. We cannot help to breath and to smell (even if you hold your breath; you cannot hold it forever). It is almost like a trigger. Hopefully this response isn't too confusing.
Sorry for jumping on your post, but is there any spell to help bypass short term memory and store things in long term or heal the link between the two? I have been doing a lot of self studying and I can remember things for a couple of days but it keeps fading. I have tried using music and scent association but without luck.
I went suffered from abuse when I was younger and more recently for several years and in my attempts to banish the memories and the pain I ended up weakening my brain's ability to store things in long term memory properly.
I am trying to improve my life and learn new languages so I can finally go to University and would like something in addition to the hours I am dedicating to studying as it's quite frustrating looking back over things and genuinely not remembering what they mean even though it looks familiar.
Years ago I had a Witches' Datebook that suggested when you study to use your "third eye" to view your study sheets to help you remember them. I did this in high school and college and found it really helped a lot.
