Holistic, Handmade, Healing

Symmetry Holistic Collective

BY KATIE MAHONEY | VICE PRESIDENT, MARKETING & COMMUNICATIONS

Three like-minded friends with a passion for holistic healing and medicine launched Symmetry Holistic Collective in 2021. This collaboration of Brandy Boswell, Erin Shrader, and Stacy Tolbert plays to the strength of each, with Brandy’s expertise in tea making as a certified herbalist, Erin as a holistic nurse & herbalist focused on herbal medicine and wellness, and Stacy’s craft of crystal infused candles.

“Our business plays to our strengths,” shares Brandy. “We have a circular leadership style.” This style has proven successful for their retail store located at 15. N Beaver Street, in the heart of the Market District of Downtown York.

“Our store is a sanctuary,” shares Brandy. “We believe in people first, community first, and retail second.” Customers, some driving up to three hours to attend this unique collective, shop all handmade products, 80% of which are handmade in York County. All products are additive and preservative free, and intended to use the whole herb to reap all the benefits.

“There is a growing need to understand ourselves again,” explains Brandy. “Learning to self-care at the root and tap into who we are as a human, and tap into nature – it’s finite, but it’s a union. Our bodies will tell us what they need, they always have. If there’s an ailment out there, there is a plant for it.”

To Try:

FAERIE TEA This blend yields a different color each time, from indigo blue, to greens, and (if you add a little lemon) pink, all while retaining a subtle white tea and floral flavor.

FAERIE RING Perfect for the seasonal approach of Fall and Winter, this blend mimics a minty hot chocolate with marshmallows.

Before you go, check out all the products online and “be curious,” encourages Brandy. “Ask yourself questions, ask your doctor questions, and explore the site and the store.”
