The Village Mystic

So much to see and feel. Shaman Jeff brings knowledge and skills to help calm and heal.

I found this cute little shop about a week ago and went in with a friend. There were all sorts of crystals, candles, incense, jewelry, greeting cards, journals, home decor, smudge sticks, and handfuls of other things, both Pagan and ritual specific and not.



The two that own the shop are probably the sweetest people I've ever met, and they took me seriously despite my age. We talked to Dawn for most of the time we were there and even got free incense for liking them on facebook. Jeff, who isn't a man of many words, was just as sweet, and it's very apparent that he really knows what he's doing. Laura, the massage therapist, was also there, and her bubbly charisma was very contagious, plus she offered us each free five minute massages.



Everyone was eager to make sure we found exactly what we were looking for, and I was amazed by the sheer amount of knowledge everyone had. They were also very supportive to my friend, who suffers from various illnesses, and offered a plethora of methods for helping her to cope with and heal them, for which I am very grateful.



I'll definitely be making this place one of my regular stops, especially since their calendar is always so full of things to do, like; gem mining in their backyard, healing circles, past life regressions, psychic readings, tarot circles, ancient crystal skull (AzKa and ZaKa) meditations, a variety of free classes, and the once a month community art walk!



For living in Bradenton for as long as I have, especially since before the store was open, I'm amazed that I didn't find it sooner.
