Anima Mundi has opened me up to herbalism in a whole new way. Every time I walk in, I feel like I'm learning something new, from teas to tinctures to their beauty and wellness offerings, the selection is thoughtful, expansive, and clearly curated with care. What really stands out is the team. The herbalists here are incredibly knowledgeable, intuitive, and genuinely helpful. They've guided me toward what i might actually need. I also had an incredibly therapeutic facial massage with Lora. She really works into the neck and shoulders, releasing so much tension. Truly a gifted therapist and highly recommend. Arya is truly a gifted intuitive reader and guide, another experience I'd highly recommend The space itself is special. There's a beautiful back patio and garden where you can order a drink and just be for a moment. It feels calm, grounding, and a little bit magical. read more

Anima Mundi Apothecary - Herbal Shops Near Me - Venice, California

Yes, they have plenty of herbs, teas, adaptogens, etc.. Prices seem to be similar to other stores or farmers markets. Came here to purchase mushroom blend tincture, I like it so far, might come back and check the garden and order a drink. Didn't get a chance to experience it when I went since they were closing in 5 mins. Parking is very limited though, hence why it's 4 stars instead of five, wish it wasn't because I can see myself frequent this place. read more

A one of a kind vibe with great service and knowledgable staff. They were willing to help and took their time educating me and not looking down their nose at a novice. They made my foray in to loose leaf tea a joy. read more

This place is incredible! Clean, clear, organized, diverse and calm. Highly recommend

Beautiful shop! I love a well curated apothecary. Such a nice selection of potions, teas, herbs, oils. I will have to return soon and investigate their inventory when I'm in a shopping mood. Today I only headed back to the garden cafe to grab a beverage with a friend. They have a nice selection of tonics and hot drinks. Lovely urban escape. It's really gorgeous. Definitely worth a visit and a hang. The staff were sweet and my cacao drink was rich and delicious. Such a sweet place. read more

I really enjoy coming here! They have soooo much stuff! Not just stuff they have on their website but all kinds of other self care items too, perfect to gift also. I love how well organized everything is, makes it so much easier to see all they have, although the place is a little small. They have events here which I haven't been to, I've only come here to do shopping but every time the girls have always been lovely, and always willing to help! read more

Omg 10/10 this is an apothecary dream! I came here and got a few gifts (skin care products and loose leaf teas) for my sister and also popped into the back courtyard (dreamy garden oasis hidden in the back with lots of space and greenery) and got a delectable matcha bevy. They have all sorts of goodies here from skin care to crystals to loose leaf teas to sage bundles and then an entire little outdoor cafe in the back with drinks and light bites as well. The staff were all super friendly and calming; I would absolutely pop in here for a weekend read and matcha or to stock up on teas/ gifts for friends. read more

This is a beautiful hidden oasis for anyone devoted to alternative ways to care for body and mind. If you're skeptical but curious, it's a great place to explore. I've followed Anima Mundi online for years and was thrilled when a shop opened nearby. It's truly a gem with an abundance of apothecary items to support a wide range of needs. On my first visit, I bought the "Happiness" herbal coffee and coconut creamer. As a daily espresso drinker, I wasn't sure how I'd feel switching it up -- but I was pleasantly surprised. The focus and calm energy lasts for hours, and I feel less chaotic during the day. I'm not giving up espresso, but I'll keep this in the rotation. I also tried the Blue Rose Latte, a concoction made with butterfly pea, blue lotus, rose, coconut cream, and plant milk of choice, and took home the "Pain Free" shot. The herbalists were informative and kind. I didn't feel the shot right away, but I slept deeply and had temporary relief from chronic pain the next day. There are a few more things I'd like to try, especially the Liver Vitality Greens -- so I'll definitely be back. read more

Anima Mundi Apothecary - Inside - Herbal Shops Near Me - Venice, California

So I stopped by for the FIRST time to this shop, I'm not from the city. I had no expectations. I was looking for a good quality hapé (Indigenous Medicine) and I found it, gratefully. However the staff there at the time I believe her name was Kat, which is the person who helped me, was friendly at first however very Censorious/Self-righteous... lol (following me around the room/watching my every move) I would even assume she judge me by my appearance. This place gave very much colonizer/white SUPREMACIST vibes. Also to add the cherry on top the Hapé Medicine was $80.... Double the price from what My People originally sell it for. (I'm An Indigenous Woman Myself) the price ranges from $40-50 MAX. For the 2oz bottle that I received; that wasn't even filled all the way. Another concern of mine. Like why wouldn't the bottles be filled up? I had to come back to the shop and double check if it was just my bottle or all of the bottles that they had on display.... It was all. I think, it's OUTRAGEOUS the pricing and staff of this place. Especially a business rooted in "helping heal" others while taking plant medicine and reselling it for double the price, that isn't even from your Origin... Do Better. read more

If you're looking for organic teas and overall holistic wellnes, you have to visit this hidden gem in Venice. Parking can be a challenge, but worth circling around a few times. Go to the garden in the back, order a delicious hand crafted cup of Java, hang out for a bit or explore the store in the front. Knowledgeable and friendly staff....ask away! read more

Anima Mundi Apothecary - Entrance - Herbal Shops Near Me - Venice, California

I waited a good 4 months before writing this review, for no reason other than pure selfishness. I was reluctant to share my favorite tea oasis, gently hidden on an otherwise busy street, and my favorite go to for work, sound bath workshops, snd the simple art of chillaxing. To call it "a vibe" would be an insult. It is "zen" in any format, any context, and at any time. The staff are incredibly knowledgeable, but just in the store front, but also in the back tea oasis. They solved my horrendous inflammation and sinus problems that tortured me since last November, and I now breathe and feel amazeballs. For those seeking a quiet workplace, they do have WiFi, but no power outlets, so bring an extra power cell to keep your laptop charged. Love love LOVE this place! read more

Anima Mundi Apothecary is a stunning haven that houses multiple buildings and a gorgeous courtyard. This was my first time visiting this little paradise, to attend Lotem Porat's Samhain Ceremony/Women's Circle. I had previously done a few soundbaths with Lotem in a group setting, and have been deeply moved by her approach to spiritual healing and her intuitiveness in our brief interactions. Still, I wasn't ready for the fully comprehensive experience she'd prepared for us, which was present the moment I stepped into the courtyard. To be able to balance breathwork, healing work, and taking great care of everyone in attendance with such leadership functions as preparing readings, leading sharing sessions, staying on schedule, controlling music, etc. is remarkable, and Lotem does so with ease. My experience with Lotem's Ceremony at Amina Mundi has stayed with me in a way that is well worth the price, and then some. I'm so profoundly grateful to have experienced it, and I cannot recommend it highly enough to anyone reading this. read more

Had the BEST cup of tea in Cali here this morning while I was wandering across the street waiting for my laundry to dry! They have a beautiful garden area to sit behind their doorway and lots of pretty loose leaf teas to buy in the front area. I used to work for a loose leaf teas spot in Colorado years ago so I've been looking for a good tea place to go to since I got here in March, and this is definitely the cleanest tastiest one I've found thus far. read more

Anima Mundi Apothecary - What it looks like from the sidewalk today - Herbal Shops Near Me - Venice, California

Best of the best!!! Euphoria is my fave of all! Trying the protein powder today too! Thank you so much!

The shop itself has quite a few products but I was alarmed by the orientalist vibe of the events - and was literally told by their soundbath lady that she 'knows my (african) culture" when I tried to share some authenticity about it - very disturbing. Groups like Zula Den are much more on point with actual cultural and community voice. read more

Herb life, innovative, personal, captivating, relaxing everything I need on a daily basis in one store and yes you will spend money.

I have a small apothecary in my home from them. The Blue Vanilla Chai is my favorite. I try to keep one in stock. The people are lovely. The space is a sweet place to visit. The only con is the hygine around bagging loose leaf tea. Even when using the scooper. Sleeves need to be pulled back and gloves need to be used after people have been touching a number of things and then go to scoop tea. I just buy packaged things because of this now. In any case, I send all my friends here. They have events too! read more

I had posted an incident I went through with a guest lecturer. I was wonder why no one at that shop called me I finally spoke with the manager. She was so friendly and understanding and told me what happened to me is something they don't tolerate BRITTNIE was so nice and assuring to me. SO PEOPLE GO FLOCK TO THE BEST HERBAL AND SPIRITUALLY PLACE in Venice read more

A great selection of herbs and tinctures as well as well informed herbalists. The store is very welcoming and the backyard enchanting. read more

I walked past this new shop here in Venice, so glad I went in, it was such an amazing experience. I didn't know what to expect, they have so many herbs, drinks and products to choose from that help improve your health. Rosh, walked me through everything and I ended up getting some great herbs she specifically tailored to me, and recommended the happiness elixir, which was delicious and I got to drink in the beautiful outdoor garden hidden in the back, where she said they host events. If you're in the area, check them out, no doubt, you'll love it and yourself more for it. I'll definitely be coming back! read more
