From the soothing scents to the quality of the products, everything exceeded my expectations. Overall, my experience at Essentially Zen was nothing short of amazing.”
“Neat little shop in downtown Staunton. Stopped in for abit while in the area visiting several weeks ago. Variety of items for sale made in USA. Is not a huge store. Small little shop.”
“This is one of my very favorite stores! They have all kinds of goods that are just my vibe!!! Staff is super friendly and helpful. Really great variety of merchandise. Super cool store!!!”
“Delightful little store - and by far our absolute favorite in downtown Staunton. Everything in the store is adorable! Ended up purchasing a cute bracelet but was also eyeing the cowboy boots! Would definitely visit again!”
“A local shop filled with various rotating local artists. The "pop-up" consists of several showcased artisans that are there for a time with their crafts. The set up today ranged from doll house miniatures, candles, kitchen ware, pottery, bath salts, crystals, hand dyed clothing, jewelry, decorations, and knitted dolls. The atmosphere was inclusive and I think it's a great addition to the downtown scene, especially as what's offered can change to refresh purchasing opportunities.”
“This place is a haven for all, young and old. They have a wide selection of gift ideas and eclectic designs and decorations! Everyone is so friendly. Love this place. ???????????”

110 E Beverley St, Staunton“This uniquely beautiful shop reflects the creative spirit and intellectual curiosity of its owner. "Words Matter" is a thoughtfully curated collection of books (including children's books), printed poems and affirmations, amethyst crystals, and objects ( homemade paper, artistic cards, fairies!) that affirm kindness, seeking, civic involvement, and spirit. Importantly, there is an undertone of whimsy and joy. You are encouraged to browse, or shopkeepers can help you find the exact right thing if you ask for assistance.”
