New Age stores (also referred to as “metaphysical”) provide an open environment in which individuals can explore their spirituality. Many spiritual stores provide services like tarot card readings and herbal products that aid customers on their path.

These shops typically stock an assortment of crystals and herbs that can aid your spiritual journey, in addition to religious, esoteric and spiritual books.

Crystals

Crystals, known for both their beauty and potential healing powers, have become an aesthetically pleasing yet therapeutic addition to modern health stores. Wearable jewelry featuring crystals is becoming more and more popular as many believe these stones help manifest intentions, bring balance into their homes and promote spiritual development.

Start by identifying what area(s) of life need help, such as clarity or positivity, then choose crystals that resonate with you and conduct some research on what frequencies each stone emits (for instance amethyst may help reduce anxiety while black tourmaline may absorb negative energies).

New age stores typically sell herbs for spells, smudge sticks and quirky knick-knacks to please fans of shows such as Schitt’s Creek. One such shop in South Florida called Corellia offers crystals, herbs and kits for DIY smudging rituals to its customers as well as workshops such as full moon cleansing circles, crystal healing and tarot readings – an example is Corellia in Corellia Plaza Shopping Center located there in South Florida.

Incense

Incense is an essential item found in new age stores, used both to set an atmosphere and offer health benefits. Certain fragrances such as rose, frankincense and myrrh can help elevate mood by increasing serotonin levels in your brain.

Incense is not just used for its fragrance; it also helps eliminate unpleasant odors and repel insects – and was historically used to ward off evil spirits! However, burning incense may lead to respiratory issues or lung cancer due to the release of chemicals such as particulate matter and volatile organic compounds, including those known to be carcinogenic in animal studies and which produce DNA adducts.

Hellen Yuan, aromatherapist and usui reiki practitioner, advises those living with asthma to use incense carefully. She suggests reading labels carefully and opting for natural incense sticks without synthetic fragrances.

Tarot Cards

Cards are filled with symbolism that transcends spiritual or cultural borders, offering timeless truths to help guide divination, meditation, personal growth and ritual practices. They’re widely used for divination purposes as well as divination ceremonies or rituals.

Finding a deck of cards to suit your personality and lifestyle shouldn’t be difficult. Some cards can help evoke specific situations while others explore universal archetypes or spiritual practices.

Tarot may be controversial within certain religions, but it’s an effective tool that can help tap your intuition and inner wisdom. No matter if it be love, career or money-related questions, the cards offer guidance. Just be sure to ask open-ended questions instead of looking for yes/no answers – then observe their images to interpret from your personal experiences and perspectives.

Books

New Age (also called metaphysical) stores offer a wide array of products designed to assist individuals in their spiritual healing, such as crystals, tarot cards and candles. Furthermore, these stores sell books about spiritual, esoteric and religious topics.

One wholesaler who distributes New Age titles reports that these books have become extremely popular. Decks of cards featuring quotes and artwork have proven particularly popular with customers; as well as books on Reiki certification.

New Age shops typically carry smudge sticks – bundles of herbs used in religious ceremonies to purify space – along with yoga and meditation DVDs as well as tools like acupuncture needles and crystals for use during acupressure treatments. Some retailers even refer to themselves as lifestyle stores.

Jewelry

Jewelry has long been one of the oldest forms of human art. It can serve multiple functions; artistic/decorative pieces may serve to adorn an outfit while functioning as a sign of membership (Christian crosses, Jewish Stars of David or Western wedding rings are common examples), as well as possess personal meaning in terms of gemstones valued for their supposed metaphysical properties.

New Age (sometimes known as “metaphysical”) stores provide customers with crystals, incense, books and tarot cards to aid with spiritual healing. Furthermore, many New Age stores host workshops or events like Reiki classes, aura photography or Tarot interpretation sessions to further their offerings.
