Our name Aénshent - pronounced Ancient - is a nod to our enduring ancestors who found ways to thrive on the Caribbean island of Antigua. Antigua translates to Ancient in Spanish. Equally, it is a nod to Ancient Egypt, for which Tamzin has a deep appreciation and connection to.
We are a black female owned business inspired by a passion for the sacred wisdom, and a desire to provide everybody access to authentic crystals, and the healing powers and magical nature of mushrooms. We are powered by, and embrace the various abundant healing properties found across nature. Aénshent is a direct reflection of founder Tamzin’s dedication and passion for bridging the gap between the best of the ancient world, & the needs of the modern, multifaceted, spiritual being.
Our mission is to inspire and assist with enhancing your quality of life; through facilitating your journey to inner peace and balance. It’s important to us that we empower you to thrive, celebrate, honour, and claim your divinity with adequate self care.
Staying true to our core personal lifestyle is important to us. We're a little "Go smudge yourself before you wreck yourself" and a whole lot of love & light. We infuse our heart and soul into what we do. Everything that we sell, we use. If we wouldn’t buy it, we won’t sell it. It’s that simple.
We intend to remain uncompromising in our mission to offer products that have been hand crafted by ourselves, or created in small batches to ensure and maintain product integrity.
Let us be your holistic haven for nurturing mind, body, and soul.
Blessings, love & light.
Tamzin - Aénshent Founder
“The name 'Aénshent' was gifted to me in a dream, and I felt intuitively guided to explore the meaning of Antigua, my father's home island. In my research, I discovered that Antigua translates to 'Ancient.' The connection felt magical and perfectly aligned, adding a touch of enchantment to this journey.”
