This shop is under-marketed but quite amazing for buckwheat pillows and cushions…read more It's RIGHT across from Pape station (literally), and you will see a sign for a Hair Salon instead, but the Meditation Shoppe (Snow Lion) is right up the stairs to the right. CALL BEFORE YOU GO. The guy is not always there (mom and pop shoppe deal), and he is very VERY nice, pleasant and wonderful to deal with. I came away feeling like I had better karma already. He even apologized for how expensive the items were, which tells me he isn't overcharging -- he's just trying to make a modest profit. Frankly, I'd rather give my money to these guys than the overhyped, overpriced shops of Bloor Street that SAY they have buckwheat, organic, eco-friendly pillows, but in the end, they're charging you $50 for something worth $25. Love. They also have things for meditation altars, books, even teas. It's a very tiny little shop, but very warm and welcoming. Makes me want to start meditating. They also do yoga classes!

Even from the outside, the exterior is beautifully decorated and has warm and inviting vibe mixed with public art. Their impressive selection of rocks, gems and crystals are organized by color. While they also have special areas for tarot and oracle decks, spells, and plant magick, these items are also mixed into the individual sections based on color and theme. Someone has put a LOT of care into the curation and aesthetic of the store. I purchased a beautiful sodalite bracelet, a few different books, and a really special oracle deck I've never seen before. I think so fondly of this store when it pops into my mind, and if I were local, I'd attend their classes, visit for readings, and shop here regularly for high-quality gifts and spiritual needs. I am very impressed with The Rock Store!

I was overjoyed when I learned that Earth and Sky Connection was close by when I moved back to…read moreBarrie. I was walking by and thought to myself; "What, this store so close?" My son and I have frequented there often for birthday presents, special occasion and gift items. It was such a blessing for us both to furnish some of our apartment together where most of the special and unique spiritual items we purchased from Earth and Sky Connection. I got to know the ladies a little bit over the years who work there. It has been a delight and a rare treat to get to know each other and develop a professional relationship with them, my son feels the same; -It's a rare and special place for him to go, he usually uses the drums and the chimes, while I chime away talking and asking questions about certain items to purchase in the near future about the meaning and purposes of the pieces of jewelry. My favourite is the Lapis Lazuli' and the other crystals, have done wonders for my wellness with insomnia and panic attacks. After my first healing session with Shonna and Brianna, I let go of so much that I was holding on to, hurt, pain, regret, and some ridicule, shame and other more private areas of my past life. Shonna worked with many instruments that I heard of, but never had the experience of receiving; until then. I do love crystals and incense, tarot cards and so much more. The ladies are great, they even help me curb my spending when I say I need to at that point, other times, I can purchase to the delight of my soul and esteem. I know I waited a long time to make such decent purchases on my own, without having to worry about. It has been a beautiful experience for my son this past year to develop his spiritual essence and also help me pick out beautiful items for our home to make it a home for us, just him and me. He received deep energy work from Shonna and Brianna as well, this year on his birthday I asked him what he wanted he said to go to the spiritual store as we call it in our home. The staff has helped me, through some trying times. Being new to Barrie, thought we found ourselves very comfortable in our home. Knowing I met some very smart, spiritually centered and gifted healers. Since then, I knew for sure and without a doubt "that spiritual health is extremely important, just as is physical and any form of internal wellness or dealing with any surmountable contact." I enjoy going in, for so many reasons as the team of ladies, never lean into "hard sales" That type of sales mentality turns me off as a smart shopper! They really know what there doing in terms of personal and professional business. They are discreate as what is said in private in any area of this establishment is always treated (as any good healer would as sacred.) -Thankfully this is a blessing. After many trips to to Earth and Sky Connection I learned that it really is the energy that the staff lends that makes this such a special store, where I have finally seen and felt (on many levels) "The Receiving of Spiritual Direction & Connection." Even if someone does not know much about spirituality, nor it's purposes or how it can help aid? --The staff are gifted in their approach to teach through their customers often when they ask certain questions. From the day to day we often get bogged down with stress and conflicting emotions or confusion. With a vast knowledge of many different elements of healing work, even through their care in conversation, it becomes a full spiritual wholeness in wellness.-- As a healer myself I appreciate this, as my energy too needs healing at times. I would say easily that this is my favourite store to shop at, They recently added to include clothing items. Ones that suit me and my taste, so much so that I have not needed to make any purchases of buying anything online. ;) -Tamara Thompson and Logan :) I wrote this review after receiving from someone just today a nice green and purple flourite. I learned when I got home that it was dually needed; being that I am a Gemini and an air sign, for this crystal seems to help people with their communication, here I am writing a review and I have not really written professionally in many years. It has to feel right to do so, and I was ready after the flourite crystal sitting on my desk of course. As I walk to their shop always in gratitude. I will, we all will miss Shonna, as she starts a new journey with her unique and deep healings, that are so necessary, else where. -Tamara Thompson & Logan Thompson

I first met her when I was 16 yrs old. From the first minute I walked into the same room as her the space changed. Before I even said anything she already knew the one thought on my mind! Its always a very serene experience. Tamare makes you feel completely safe and comfortable. Im always amazed at how well she can bring a sense of calm and hopefulness. She is certainly one of those special bright beautiful beings out there that we are fortunate enough to spend some time with! Once you spend five minutes with Tamare you'll feel like you've known each other a lifetime I'm very grateful to have Tamare in my life!
