Looking for just the right book to inspire your practice, or that CD that puts you into bliss mode while cooking dinner, or maybe that organic essential oil that relaxes you after work? Maybe it's an original thank you card or a gift for someone (maybe yourself?) that deserves a little something special.
In the Shanti Shop, we carry items that feed your soul. Our consciously selected inventory of Tea, Books, Music, Props, and inspiring gifts and decor is constantly changing to offer you a wide variety of offerings to explore before or after class. All items are fair trade, many made by community co-ops in India or locally in the NorthWest, and all of them are chosen with attention and care, not only for who will buy them, but for who made them.
Stop in and say hi, sip some tea and check out the new music in the Shanti Rotation, or discover the books being read from in class. Maybe it's time to pick out a handmade item for your alter, a new prop for your practice, or some special incense to lift your Spirit. Absolutely everything in the Shanti Shop is hand-picked and stocked with you in mind, and we are happy to help you find whatever might complement and support your yoga, both on and off the mat.

Just in---FABULOUS hemp seed candles that double as massage and body oil. These are so yummy—light one before you get into the bath, and then when still slightly damp, massage the wonderfully warm hemp oil from the candle all over—you will smell terrific, and the warm oil feels so fantastic in the chillier weather. From this same line, Earthly Bodies, we are now carrying their regular body oils in 6 different scents, as well as their top-of-the-line hemp lip balm.
Also available, amazing 100% organic, petroleum and lead-free candles, scented with pure essential oils, and as lovely to look upon as they are to smell--the scent combinations are wonderful! We have them in glass jars, free-standing pillars, and votives--a style for everyone. These are the best smelling candles we have ever found, and with a company that employs rigourous environmental and health standards, they are also the healthiest candles on the market. We also now have a wide variety of candle plates to hold your pillar candles (which also look beautiful with blessing rings or peace stones around their edges), and most also have a tiny hole in the corner to double as incense holders.
We just received sun-lit glass stones engraved with great focusing words (like “Healing”, “Celebrate”, and “Namaste”), which are great to keep with you during the day or for your home altar
We also carry beautiful hand-made ring boxes (multi-colored glass, or painted wood) from Bali. They are unique and fun to give with a Blessing Ring or engraved peace stone inside. Also new from Bali are small clove boxes--the scent alone makes having one in your kitchen or on your nightstand worthwhile, but then add in a love note or a Blessing Heart and everyone is happy...
Love tealights? We just stocked delicate shell lotus-shaped tea light holders in a variety of colors. They are warm and richly hued, and are fantastic next to your bathtub or on your alter. Etched glass votive or tealight holders are also in stock again, in 4 different colors--they cast a warm glow wherever you place them.
Now that Fall is here and winter not far behind, we have brought back our heavier-weave scarves and hats.
