I only dabbled in some high ceremonial magick such as LBRP, middle pillar and kaballistic cross rituals but quickly learnt any thing can be a ritual and it's being in a magickal mood or magickal mindset which creates real magick. Similar to shamans in the amazon in how they connect with nature and make rituals up on the spot, just going with what feels right in the moment and embracing that connection with the divine. Then you start seeing how life is a ritual in itself, and everything you do can be in a constant flow from one ritual to the next.

The strongest affirmation is the one which is unspoken and sung gently in the heart.

Check this out on wikipedia search term "anahata" (heart chakra):

Anahata is associated with the ability to make decisions outside the realm of karma. In Manipura and below, man is bound by the laws of karma and fate. In Anahata one makes decisions ("follows one's heart") based on one's higher self, not the unfulfilled emotions and desires of lower nature. As such, it is known as the heart chakra.[9] It is also associated with love and compassion, charity to others and psychic healing. Meditation on this chakra is said to bring about the following siddhis (abilities): he becomes a lord of speech, he is dear to women, his presence controls the senses of others, and he can leave and enter the body at will.
