Hello There! I’m Emily, your friendly neighbourhood witchy gal. I haunt East London.
I’m passionate about arts and culture, education, mindfulness and self-care.
I write blog posts to help you:
- Bring creativity into your self-care routine.
- Support your spiritual or witchcraft journey with a bit of magickal mindfulness.
- Live a bit more ethically and slowly.
The Blog
Emily Underworld started as a London Student Lifestyle Blog, back in 2014.
I’m no longer a student but there are still plenty of university advice blog posts for you to browse.
I finished my MA in 2020. Hopefully, I’ll complete a PhD one day. I study Classics and Archaeology, which includes a lot of Greek Mythology… hence the blog name!
My writing focuses on Creativity, Self-Care, Witchcraft and Easy Ethical Living. You Will Also Find:
- Personal essays about mental health and chronic illness. I now mainly write these on Medium.
- Book reviews and reading lists.
- Travel content focused on Europe and London.
- Blogging + Social Media Resources.
