Altars aren’t just for witches, saints, or Pinterest-perfect wellness influencers. They’re for anyone who wants a space to say: this is mine, this is sacred, and this is where I recharge.
And guess what? You don’t need a whole room or fancy crystals from Etsy to do it. You can build a bad bitch altar right where you already go to cry, sing, shave your legs, and exhale the bullsh*t: your bathroom.
What’s a Bad Bitch Altar, Anyway?
An altar is just a space you set aside with intention. It can be spiritual, symbolic, or simply aesthetic. For us? A bad bitch altar is a corner that reminds you who the hell you are. It’s your daily reset spot, the place you go to remember that you’re more than the chaos outside the door.
Step 1: Pick Your Spot
You don’t need a mansion. A bathroom shelf, corner of your vanity, or even the edge of the tub will do. What matters is that it’s yours.
Step 2: Gather Your Tools
Here’s what to add:
-
Scent → Shower steamers or a candle that matches your mood. (Bitch Relax for calm, Bad Bitch Energy for hype, Exhale the Bullsht* for letting it all go.)
-
Symbols → A crystal, tarot card, photo, or even a lipstick that makes you feel powerful.
-
Light → A candle, twinkle lights, or anything that says, “this is different, this is special.”
-
Words → Write a mantra, a cuss-filled pep talk, or your weekly “permission slip” and stick it there.
Step 3: Make It a Ritual
The altar isn’t about looking pretty it’s about using it. Here’s how:
-
Drop a steamer, breathe in deep, and say your mantra out loud.
-
Light a candle before a shower and let that tiny flame mark your transition from chaos to calm.
-
Swap out the items weekly so it never feels stale.
Step 4: Own the Energy
A bad bitch altar is a declaration: This time is mine. It’s where you give yourself permission to pause, where you drop the guilt, where you remember that self-care isn’t selfish it’s survival.
And if anyone asks why you have a mini shrine in your bathroom? Just tell them: “Because I f*cking deserve it.”
Why It Works
It’s easy to get lost in the grind to let your bathroom become a pit stop instead of a sanctuary. But when you build even a tiny altar, you’re saying, this space matters, I matter.
It’s not about religion, or rules, or what Instagram says. It’s about reclaiming one small corner of your life as sacred.
