This business has been around for 40+ years. And that's amazing. Real amazing. They sell all sorts…read more aromatherapy items and on their website state "Natures Symphony has been an Aromatherapy pioneer in the US for more than 38 years."
It's a small shop, packed with items, on a small street, about a block away from Mizner Park. They have a substantial mail-order business according to its owner, close to 40%, shipping items around the world.
Frankly, I have purchased only one item in this shop for the 18 years I have lived in the area, and that is SAGE. (The owner won't be laying his rent off of my business),
I practice (in some manner of speaking) smudging. I wave the sage in the air, walking around the house, not missing a spot. And while doing this, I say something like
"God, I ask for your help to cleanse this house of any negative energy, making space for good, positive energy to occupy our home."
My husband thinks I'm crazy, and he humors me, as he has done for 50 years, while I'm engaging in this ritual. I don't do this regularly, usually when I feel there's some negative energy around. Having recently turned the corner from being in a dark place for too long a time, I thought the time was right. And it was a few days before Yom Kippur, and I figured it could not hurt!
His biggest objection is 1) "the stuff stinks", and 2) as the sage burns, some ashes fall off of it, and those ashes are like black soot (I guess it is soot), and no dirt is allowed in our home. And BORI, our pure bred adopted sato from Puerto Rico, also thinks it stinks (he sneezes a lot), and when I try to wave the sage near him, he runs away. My husband saw this and said "see, you always said he was smart!"
I explain that the odor will dissipate (it always does) after it works its "magic", and promise to collect all the soot, which honestly, I never do. As an aside, I find that all the items are VERY expensive, but I have nothing to compare the pricing to. I'm just happy to be able to buy my sage, in a delightful little shop of wonders about 5 minutes from my home. The owners are wonderful, explaining every item in the shop. They also offer educational classes, which appear to be well attended.
Check them out. I'm sure you'll be amazed and not leave without buying something. And don't forget to check it on Yelp to get your discount.
Street parking is a challenge, but available.
