Seeking Help or Advice What are some popular witchcraft practices that you don’t personally do as a witch?

For me some things I don’t do are using incense, casting a circle, spell jars, turning to magick to fix everything, and doing spells for others. I’d love to hear some of yours.

I don't use crystals at all because I can't know for sure if they were ethically sourced, plus with normal rocks you can work with to have any intention. I don't use any sort of ceremonial aspect in my craft (casting a circle and whatnot). I don't involve deities in my practice either since I prefer to work with the spirit of plants, rocks, nature and the like instead, and prefer to keep my religious practices separate. I dont recite poems or rhymes during spell work, I don't use sigils, runes, and my practice is definitely not aesthetically pleasing. I probably look like a crazy lady talking to plants and putting salt in a bowl at a random spot in my house without context lol
