The shop is dedicated to mindfulness and emotional and spiritual well-being, as well as promoting what local artisans have to offer.

Owner Louise Stirzaker has brought the business to life in an effort to create a spiritual haven for locals, unlocking a world of tarot and oracle readings.

The holistic practitioner has been involved in the practice for nearly 30 years, and she has used her time in recent years to unlock her creativity.

The results of these efforts can now be found at Ritual Bliss, which features a wide range of handmade gifts, beauty products, spiritual tools, and ethically sourced crystals.

In the coming weeks, the business will also be used as a space to host a variety of publicly available workshops.
