I love shopping at Kindred Spirits! I always find the best incense and special gifts and crystals and candles. I have really enjoyed watching this shop and business grow and evolve over the years. Antonina and her team are amazing! I always feel so welcomed and good vibes when I stop by. Ive had some crazy accurate tarot readings by talented readers there too. Thank you for providing for my journey!

Kindred Spirits just might be the most innovative space in the Winston-Salem Downtown Arts District. A constantly changing array of spirit-infused artwork inspires and delights the viewer. Completely original and one-of-a-kind apparel, accessories, and wall art are for sale. Shamans, seers, and readers are available to guide you back to yourself. Antonina Whaples and her business partner have made KS ready for life after COVID and far beyond. It is a safe space for community healing, love, and justice.

Friendly environment and amazing staff, but overrated prices for very cheap jewelry. Bought a bracelet and a necklace then four days later, they break. I was highly upset because I loved them; theyre very pretty. Sadly, I did not get my receipt so I could ask for an exchange for them, so now 50 plus dollars down the drain.

My wife and I absolutely love this place. The assortment of herbals, and their solid local art are just amazing. I’ve commissioned several pieces for our personal collection and the results were outstanding. Do yourself a favor… stop in and give these fine people your patronage!

Ive been a regular at Kindred Spirits for years and have watched this place grow, evolve, and redesign itself time and time again, and every visit I feel like theres something new, something unique, something otherworldly that stands out above any other magical supply shop that I have been to. I absolutely love this place. The staff is wonderfully knowledgeable and engaging, experts in their craft, and will help you find exactly what you need. I highly recommend this neat little shop to anyone looking for supplies, herbs, art, or something special for that person who has everything.

I’ve shopped at Kindred Spirits for almost 2 decades! They always have the spiritual supplies I’m looking for and the best fresh herb inventory. Also beautiful jewelry and other goods from local artists. KS is so much more than a shop, it’s a community resource with a wealth of knowledge to share.

This place is the best! Really great artwork crafted with intention and care. Stones for days and other great resources for wellness. Their staff is fantastic and always helpful in helping gather the right provisions for my journey! They are community focused and always supporting the wellbeing of our city in various ways. Thank you all for being in Winston!

One of my favorite shops to visit! It’s so much more than a store. There’s a sense of community and connection as soon as you walk in the door. Antonina and RJ are not only personable but incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. You’ll leave with tools in hand and a game plan. (Grab some art while you’re there!)

First discovered this store nearly 15 years ago with family and rediscovered it a few years back when it changed owners. I’ve enjoyed selecting bath soaks, stones and jewelry with help from the owner and associates. Friends have been delighted with the gifts they have received from Kindred Spirits and it was easy to ship directly from the shop to recipients.

I love this business! They are so welcoming and always have what I need for my spiritual journey. Anytime I’ve bought something from Kindred, I can feel the difference as soon as I get the object/crystal home. When the pandemic hit, they would ship what I needed and it would arrive promptly; within 5 days at the most! Can’t say enough good things about Kindred Spirits!

Kindest, most helpful and generous staff in the area! Kindred Spirts has everything for your eclectic and spiritual needs.

This is hand down my number one go to store for any of my spiritual and healing needs. Antonina (the owner) had helped me grow spiritually and mentally throughout the last 8 years and has always been more than helpful with any of my questions. Her education of herbalism and her love for the community you she lives in supersede any service Ive recieved anywhere else from North Carolina so the way to Canada.

I’ve been a customer since 2012. Kindred is a home for anyone that walks in. The owners and staff are extremely kind, genuine, knowledgeable and helpful. It’s also a great place to have your art displayed, they’re very supportive of local artists and care about our community!

Antonia Whaples, the owner of Kindred Spirits is a sweet, kind caring person that cares about her clients. I trained her in reiki levels 1 and 2. Great spirit and student. Then she went on to open kindred. Spirits. I would highly recommend supporting her and kindred spirits. Highly recommended. I am so proud of her.

Review №39

Kindred spirits is just one of those places that feel like home. The first time I walked in I had just got out of a relationship and was pretty down but something just drew me in. So I just went in and talked to everyone there. I probably didn’t leave til about two hours later lol. I say that simply because it’s not just quality products there, but moreso quality character from the employees and that made such a huge impact on me. So if you’re curious about going just give it a try and talk to someone. You might make a friend or friends for life, or you might find what you didn’t even know what you were looking for!

I absolutely love these folks. Online orders are great, but the shop itself has such a beautiful energy. I picked up Antoninas Piczanka Tarot today and am so excited to explore with it. Antonina has helped me through some of the roughest waters over the past three years. Im grateful to have a local, spiritual resource that is as asscessible and versatile as Kindred Spirits!!

I am a repeat customer at kindred spirits dating back to my teenage years, but most notably to date my favorite experience was coming in pregnant to find herbs to cure my placenta. Kindred has truly always embodied the role of being a multitalented purveyor for your journey. From hex rattles to winston based ouija, I couldn’t imagine living in this city without y’all!

Review №51

Small inventory, but associates were nice and friendly when entering. Prices ARE NOT what they appear to be labeled! I bought 3 stones and the price tag on the area where theyre showcased said a fair price- a couple of bucks per stone, and I bought a few fluorite key chains that were shown on the price tag on the storage bowl to be at $.95 cents per chain. Bit of a shocker when I got to the register and the price tag was a whopping $50! This store needs to ensure its price tags are correct before you shock people with the final price tag. I wish I could say this was a singular event, but I have a few friends who went into the store and also shared a similar issue of the prices changing at the register. Friendly staff though.

Review №55

Antonina and RJ offer the most amazing services at Kindred Spirits. I have been able to continue to connect with them since I have moved to the DC area. I love that Antonina has been able to offer virtual shamanic and spiritual direction services during Covid because I am in the ministering profession. Her healing work has enabled me to continue my work within my own community of faith.Of course, the art work, herbs, and other offerings are always. a first stop for me when I am in WS. Trade Street is an amazement of treasures. One is truly missing out if they havent stopped in to see the store. I can only hope that WS continues to see the amazing gift they have.

I have been a customer and repeat customer of Kindred Spirits since it opened. I love that the co-owners are so knowledgeable, and friendly. The variety of items available is stellar. I have taken some of the classes offered pre-covid and have found the information taught was easy to learn and understand. I have purchased items post-covid and they still provide great service to the community with covid restrictions in place. They offer many metaphysical items, and beautiful art to name a few.

For a relatively small space, Kindred Spirits is packed with delights. Necklaces, charms, rings, wands, gemstones, minerals, religious icons, tarot, bracelets, ritual candles, banners, chakra guides, salt lamps, altar cloths and accoutrement, incense, earrings, chimes, sage, malas, florida water... theres lots to sort thru, and at fair prices IMO. Who wants chinzy charms for something as important as your altar or ritual space? For plastic dreamcatchers hit a big box store.Ive always felt welcome there and the culturally diverse staff have answered my strange questions numerous times. And no misappropriation here; only authentic cultural resourcing.The owner seems to always have something creative cooking, whether it be hand designed and painted upcycled clothes, shoes and wall art (painted acoustic guitars, plates, etc) or miniature charms and stone-studded sunglasses; as well as a book written on Stone Medicine and the unique Piczanka tarot.You can find items relating to Buddhism, Hinduism, Pagan, and other cultures. A space for education, healing, having your tarot read, recentering yourself, discovering new interests and picking up supplies for your current metaphysical needs. As their says: Provisions for your Journey.

I just had an amazing experience here! It was my first time, the staff were very friendly but didn’t hover over me, which I really appreciate because I don’t love to make conversation(haha). They answered all my questions and were attentive when I needed it. They introduced themselves and asked for my name when I was checking out and said it was nice to see a new face! The pricing was reasonable, selection was good, and the vibe was dope. I can’t recommend this place enough.

This shop is honestly a dream. The employees are incredibly kind and the products they sell are all unique and breathtaking. Everyone is also well-informed, so even a novice like me can ask questions about what stones contain which healing properties and everything else in the book. They have some rather expensive items that can actually be paid for in increments, so you dont have to worry about breaking your wallet too bad if you want that giant fancy amethyst rock cut-out. All in all a lovely place with an excellent atmosphere, and I highly recommend it to anyone whos looking for healing stones, ritual herbs, or incense.

Kindred is the epitome of the best that Winston-Salem has to offer. If you are visiting Winston and want art with meaning behind it, this is the best place to find it.

I visited this store last Friday. My experience was mixed. As soon as I walked into the store I started to feel shaky, tense and like I was being squeezed by a invisible anaconda. I felt that way the entire time I was in the store. Im not sure what that means but I was able to gather myself enough to look around and purchase a few items. Once I stepped out of the store I felt better, just really drained. You have a lovely store. I dont know what made me have that reaction and its weird. I do know it took me two days to feel rested. I hope to return as I love the selection of crystals, hopefully next time I dont feel that way

Antonina has been extremely helpful and patient in explaining everything to me and answering my questions. We did a cord burning to rid me of something I had been holding on to for far too long; and just 24 hours later, I already feel a difference! When I make it to downtown W-S, I always make time to stop in the shop and browse, they always have something new and exciting. Jewelry, incense, books, rocks; they always have something to fit my budget. The employees and owner always seem to have the time to talk, and have a great calming vibe.
