Find Your Center — Local services in Seattle

I first dropped by this place maybe a year ago. At the time I thought the owner was friendly and the store had a really good selection of high-quality pieces of crystals and stones. It also had an open yoga type space for yoga, reiki, and sound bath classes.

Returning after a year hiatus later I was increasingly impressed. They have signature pieces that are large (between 1-3 feet in height in some cases) and clearly intended to be the center design piece of a room including amethyst geode split into angel wings, and what is called a "golden healer" piece that is at least 2 1/2' x 2'.

They also have rich, deeply hued pieces of beautiful carnelian that start as low as four dollars, exceptional quality labradorite spheres and unusual pieces like golden lepidolite (which looks like a transparent egg of dragon wings) which would easily become the hallmark piece of someone's personal collection.

They have significant Celestite clusters of unusual size and depth of blue, Oracle and tarot cards, a ring selection that includes Blue Aquamarine pieces, bracelets of Onyx, or Tiger's eye, or Malachite, rose quartz, lazuli, sodalite, and for the lunar new year I found several different sizes of the Neko cat in pyrite.

The prices are surprisingly reasonable, especially given the high-quality. The pieces want to go home with you… Which doesn't always feel the case in every crystal store.

I'll try to go by and get some more photos of some of the more exceptional pieces that stay with your mind when you go home.

There's also an amazing grey cat with golden eyes named Roo who keeps office hours there on occasion. He's very selective about hanging out, but once he decides you're OK it's a very cool experience.

They also carry some ceremonial drinking cacao -- trying some for the first time in store while I was browsing was a fantastic decision (they have a hot water dispenser which made it possible to immediately try the cacao something that's very appealing while contemplating which crystals want to come home with you).

The owner Josie is super knowledgeable. And she seems more than a little Intuitive about the right crystal for customers but she respectfully waits and won't say anything unless you ask her.

She's also the yoga teacher and offers Reiki Master certifications each year. You can be certified for not one but two levels in a one day intensive for $444. As a level two Reiki master myself, I appreciate when the training is focused into a one day intensive.

The Reiki Chakra clearing session is what I would recommend above everything else. It took me a few weeks but I recently decided to request a session with crystals ($125/hr before gratuity). The option to do it without the crystals was is less expensive ($100/hr before gratuity), but frankly when you have a practitioner who is gifted in working with crystal energies, the Reiki work can be significantly more transformative. What I didn't expect was the incorporation with sound energies using crystal bowls that seemed to transport me instantly into a much deeper level of awareness during our session, which organically went over the 60 minutes (I tipped $30 for the extra time).

The store sells the crystal sound bowls and essential oil sprays as well.

They are only open Friday through Monday. Check the hours but usually from noon to 5PM. Street...

Having received Reiki treatments from Josie, I can attest to her powerful intuitive energetic connection. After speaking with me about her Reiki journey I immediately felt called to study under her. Her warmth, compassionate healing support, and passion for energy healing is interwoven in her practice and carried over into her teaching. Josie balances the class with an extensive knowledge of Reiki history and hands-on practice, holding space beautifully for learning by thoughtfully answering every question. Her gentle guidance and support created a unique and fundamental safety in vulnerability crucial to this transformative experience. Having gone through Reiki training once before I can confidently say that not every teacher is the same. Josie is very gifted at teaching how to simultaneously share healing energy while creating energetic boundaries for your practice. I highly recommend Josie’s Reiki training course.

Josie and her shop are amazing! She always has the best crystals and is so knowledgeable on the properties of each one and which direction to point you if you’re wanting something in particular. She always wants the best for you and has the most pure and genuine energy. She is very talented at reiki and I have really benefited from my sessions with her - and she also infuses reiki into the products she makes! I lover her candles (especially Sanctuary), and have a lot of her elixir sprays - they help me so much and smell wonderful. Her events are great too - I’ve been to a crystal class and a sound bath (I recommend both). You can’t go wrong with anything from this shop, and I always feel good...
