Respell Your Reality feels more like a book you dip into than one you rush through. It’s cozy, witchy, and grounding, with a strong focus on rhythm, intuition, and working with cycles like the moon rather than fighting against them. I loved the New Moon sections in particular, which encourage rest, dreaming big, and creating space without productivity pressure.

The book also does a great job unpacking how femme-presenting people are taught to perform for validation and gently reframes creativity and embodiment as something sacred instead of consumable. Overall, this is a warm, affirming read that reminds you you’re not broken, just out of sync. A great pick if you’re into intuitive living, modern witchcraft, and slowing down.

Respell Your Reality felt less like reading a book and more like being gently but firmly called back into my own power. Lisa Lister has a way of weaving magic into the everyday that makes you realize just how much of your life is shaped by the stories you tell yourself, and how beautifully those stories can be rewritten. I loved how this book centers on reframing your inner dialogue and becoming your own biggest cheerleader. Instead of tearing yourself down, you’re invited to consciously choose thoughts, beliefs, and rituals that actually support the person you’re becoming. It’s not about pretending everything is perfect, it’s about recognizing your agency in how you meet what life brings. What made this especially powerful for me was the way Lister ties in the moon, seasonal rhythms, and simple rituals into what is essentially a year-long (and lifelong) spell of self-betterment. Each phase feels intentional, reflective, and rooted in the natural cycles we so often forget to honor. It made personal growth feel sacred instead of exhausting. This book is empowering, deeply reflective, and quietly transformative. It reminds you that you are not broken, you are in process. And with the right intention, awareness, and a little magic, you can absolutely respell your reality.
