At Spiritually Rooted®, our name has always meant one core thing: being rooted in spirit, whatever that looks like for your personal journey. Not one path, not one label, not one belief system, but a living, evolving relationship with spirit that continues to unfold over time.
As our community grows, so do the conversations we have in the shop. More and more, we’ve heard requests for Christian resources , books, saints, and devotional tools , alongside the metaphysical, pagan, and holistic items we’ve always carried. This expansion isn’t a shift away from who we are. It’s a deeper expression of who we’ve always been.
Everything Is And , Not Or
Spiritual growth isn’t about choosing this or that. It’s about honoring what resonates, when it resonates. Organized religion, personal spirituality, intuition, ritual, prayer, these things don’t have to cancel each other out.
A helpful way to think about this is through a simple puzzle analogy.
When you work on a big puzzle, you don’t get the full picture all at once. You work with the pieces you have, slowly watching meaning take shape. Life and spiritual growth work the same way. We’re given beliefs, values, and frameworks early on, often through family, culture, or religion, and we begin assembling our understanding of the world from there.
Sometimes, along the way, a piece shows up that doesn’t seem to fit.
The Orange Puzzle Piece
Imagine you’re building your puzzle and all your pieces are blue and white. Then one day, an orange piece appears. It doesn’t fit your current picture, so the instinct is to reject it.
At Spiritually Rooted®, we believe in a different approach: don’t throw the piece away. Just set it aside.
That orange piece might be a new idea, a different spiritual language, or a belief that challenges what you’ve always known. It doesn’t mean everything else was wrong. It simply means there may be more to the picture than you can see right now.
Over time, more pieces arrive. And eventually, you may find a piece that connects the blue, the white, and the orange , revealing a bigger, more complete image than you ever expected.
That’s the heart of spiritual growth. Life is about AND, not OR.
Why We’re Expanding Our Christian Offerings
Christianity has always had a place at Spiritually Rooted®. What’s changing now is that we’re listening more closely to what our community is asking for.
We are expanding our selection to include Christian books and devotional resources, saint candles, medals, and devotional tools including beloved figures such as Saint Anthony and Saint Jude, new saint statues beyond archangels, and crossover items shared across traditions including influences from bodega and botánica traditions, as well as Santería, where Christian saints have long been honored. This expansion honors the reality that many spiritual paths overlap , and that devotion, prayer, ritual, and intuition can coexist beautifully.
Rooted in Spirit, Whatever Your Path
Spiritually Rooted® is not about replacing one belief with another. It’s about creating a space where every journey is respected, where you don’t have to abandon what you know to explore what’s next. As we prepare for our move to 48 Webster Street, we’re growing into something even more expansive, with deeper inventory, clearer sections, and more crossover between mind, body, and spirit. Watch for expanded Christian inventory, deeper crossover between traditions, and a broader selection of tools that honor mind and spirit as one continuous journey. Whether your puzzle is blue, white, orange, or something entirely different, you are welcome here. Because at Spiritually Rooted®, there is room for every piece.
