Mama Gaiam is truly a special place, a peaceful metaphysical sanctuary in the heart of Chelsea. I found a beautiful crystal I had been searching everywhere for. And when you visit, make sure you say hello to Max.

A very welcoming and spiritual place. I wanted to get some stone bracelets and I ended up learning much more about crystals, guided meditation and more.

He took the time to explain how his physics and mathematics background informs the sonic healing ceremonies he hosts. An uplifting conversation and a pleasant sensory experience.

The owner was very knowledgeable, helpful and kind. He also gave me amazing breath work, Qigong and meditation advice. The quality of the crystals is unlike anywhere I’ve been before and affordable.

The owner helped me find a beautiful crystal in my modest price range that was perfect for my daughter, and did a video showing her how to use it to meditate. So much better than an β€œI <3 NY” keychain.
