The Zen Shop 🔮Brums Longest Running Spiritual Shop
📍Located In Digbeth, B’ham
✨Offering Workshops, Treatments & Readings

The history surrounding Zen goes back more than 15 years when Sylvia Chandler was running a succesful flower arranging shop on Corporation Street in Birmingham's busy city centre. Sylvia had been using plants, herbs and various alternative and complementary therapies all through her life and had a vision to open up a shop that could help people discover how to take care of themselves, naturally. S

erenity was opened on Corporation Street, this was moved to Brindley Place with the name of Zen and the art of flower arranging, which was eventually changed to simply Zen. With another shop opening in Moseley the two stores have become more and more successful over the years, building up a reputation for educating and informing and never being afraid to steer clear of controversy - from urine therapy to magic mushrooms - the shops are well-known and loved by many people through all walks of life. Zen has also gained a reputation for providing first-rate readings and therapies and for hosting events, courses and workshops from the Tarot for Beginners course that has been run by Kate Chandler for many years to a talk from William Rodriguez, the last man out of the world trade centre.

💚 April Chakra Series: Heart Chakra 💚

As we continue our chakra journey this April, we open into the gentle, healing energy of the Heart Chakra, also known as Anahata ✨

This sacred energy centre is the bridge between the physical and spiritual chakras, guiding love, compassion, forgiveness, and deep emotional healing. It governs how you give and receive love — not only to others, but also to yourself.

💚 Location: Centre of the chest
💚 Element: Water
💚 Colour: Green (sometimes Pink)
💚 Keywords: Love • Compassion • Forgiveness • Emotional Balance

When your Heart Chakra is balanced, you feel open, peaceful, and deeply connected. You are able to love freely, set healthy boundaries, and move through life with empathy and grace. When blocked, you may feel guarded, disconnected, or struggle with forgiveness and self-love.

💚 Ways to support your Heart Chakra:
• Spend time in nature and breathe deeply
• Work with crystals like Rose Quartz, Green Aventurine, or Emerald
• Practice self-love rituals and gratitude
• Herb: Rose

Open your heart gently, give yourself the love you so freely offer to others… your heart is your greatest healer 💚

Stay tuned as we continue exploring each chakra this month 🌈
