The app holds your poison until you're ready to burn it. ■ Burn A sacred burning ritual — お焚き上げ — that takes your words and turns them to ash. Nothing left behind. ■ Fortune Draw Once a day, draw a fortune to check your energy. Bad draw? Write it out and burn that too. Don't let it pile up. Don't let it get under your skin. Start releasing today — and make room for what you actually want.
