🔮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. Serenity 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.

🕯️🍂 Blessed Samhain & Happy Halloween! 🎃✨

As the veil between worlds is said to grow thin, we welcome the magic of Samhain - a sacred time of remembrance, reflection and transformation.

A moment to honour those who came before us, celebrate the cycles of nature, release what no longer serves us and embrace the wisdom that comes with the changing seasons.

May your candles burn brightly, your home be filled with warmth and protection, and your heart find comfort in the memories of those who walk beside us in spirit. 🌙

Whether you're honouring your ancestors, setting intentions, connecting with your intuition or simply enjoying the magic of the season, may your Samhain be filled with love, light and a little everyday magic.

✨ What does Samhain mean to you? We'd love to hear how you're celebrating or honouring this special time.

Sending blessings from all of us at Zen. 🖤

🌿 Blessed be.

🎃✨ 1 DAY TO SAMHAIN ✨🌙

The veil is almost open… Samhain is nearly here. 🖤

With just one day remaining, our final preparation turns to boundaries — protecting your peace, clearing disruptive influences and making it very clear what is, and is not, welcome within your space.

🔥 Hot Foot Spray 🔥
Created to support boundary work when a person, situation or influence has become troublesome, disruptive or difficult to shift.
✨ Moves troublesome people on
✨ Clears disruptive influences
✨ Supports boundary work
Spritz your Hot Foot Spray around doorways, thresholds, entrances or the edges of your space while focusing on your intention: that unwanted disruption moves away, your boundaries remain strong and peace is restored.

Hot Foot work has long been associated with encouraging unwanted influences to leave and keep moving. Used with clear intention, it can form part of a wider protection or boundary ritual when something has overstayed its welcome.

And on the eve of Samhain, that message feels especially fitting:
What belongs may enter.
What does not belong may pass us by.
What disturbs our peace has no place within our circle.

🕯️ 1 day to go…

What boundary are you strengthening before Samhain arrives?
✨ What are you ready to finally move out of your

28/10/2026

🎃✨ 3 DAYS TO SAMHAIN ✨🌙

The veil grows thinner… and the countdown continues. 🖤
Only three days remain until Samhain.
As we reach these final days of preparation, it is a powerful time to clear away what feels heavy, stagnant or out of place — making room for a cleaner, calmer energy before we step across the threshold into Samhain.

✨ Spell Breaker Spray ✨
Crafted with love and intention to support cleansing, uncrossing and energetic reset work.
✨ Clears heavy energy
⛓️‍💥 Breaks crossed conditions
🌊 Restores flow

Mist your Spell Breaker Spray around your space after cleansing, before ritual, around doorways and thresholds, or whenever the atmosphere feels stuck or weighed down.

You can also use it as part of a larger uncrossing or releasing ritual — taking a moment to consciously clear away what no longer belongs, break old patterns and restore movement where things have felt blocked.

Samhain is a time of endings as much as beginnings. Before we honour the dead, our ancestors and the turning of the Wheel, these final days give us an opportunity to clear the path ahead.

🕯️ 3 days to go…
What are you ready to clear before Samhain arrives?
✨ What needs to be broken, released or finally allowed to move again?
