Kind of Woo

About

Hello, I’m Louise – the heart and hands behind Something Kind of Woo. My crystal shop in Royal Wootton Bassett is a space full of calm, curiosity and wonder. People often say it feels airy, soothing, and beautifully scented the moment they step inside – and that’s exactly how I want it to be.

At Something Kind of Woo, we harness Earth’s healing gifts to help balance modern life’s challenges. Through carefully selected crystals and gentle guidance, you’ll discover a softer path to physical and emotional wellbeing. It’s about embracing nature’s time-tested remedies and finding what feels good for you in today’s busy world.

I’ve always been drawn to the magic of woo – the sparkle of crystals, the stillness of meditation, the gentle power of Reiki, and the wisdom of balancing our energy centres. Over time, that curiosity grew into a passion for helping others find peace, clarity, and connection in their own lives.

But my journey here wasn’t a straight line. I spent 12 years working in the weight loss industry, before stepping away when my own health – both physically and mentally – began to struggle. In 2023, I was diagnosed with Binge Eating Disorder. That experience made me realise that I couldn’t keep supporting people with weight loss without helping them first understand the deeper reasons behind their relationship with food. That’s when I created Wellness Wiltshire, working with clients to unpick their personal food stories so they could step forward with compassion and knowledge, not guilt.

2022 was also a turning point. It was the year I admitted that my drinking had become out of control and I needed help. In the early days of sobriety, I turned to crystals to ease anxiety and sleepless nights. I discovered the calm of selenite, the comfort of amethyst – and everything started to shift. That’s when the magic of woo truly became part of my healing.

In October 2024, I shared my long-term dream with my partner: one day, I’d love to own a crystal shop that also serves coffee, tucked away in a coastal Cornish town. A few weeks later, I spoke to Gemma, who runs the beautiful Little Gem coffee shop here in Royal Wootton Bassett. I told her about my dream of blending crystals, coffee and community – and from that chat, my Coffee & Crystals events were born.

So now, alongside the shop, you’ll find me offering:
✨ Reiki healing – to release what feels heavy and invite calm.
✨ Chakra realignment & balancing – to restore harmony.
✨ Meditation & mindful practices – simple tools to reconnect.
✨ Coffee & crystals gatherings – a warm drink, a crystal or two, and a chance to share.

As the daughter of an engineer, raised in a very science-minded household, I know this path is a step outside the comfort zone. But that’s where the good stuff happens.

This is just the beginning. There’s so much more to come – and I’d love for you to be part of it.

Louise
