How to find the apothecary inside Namaste Bookshop
The apothecary does not have its own street door. You will find our sage, palo santo, resins and censers inside Namaste Bookshop, so keep an eye out for that name above the entrance.
Look for the Namaste Bookshop sign
On the south side of 14th Street, at the Fifth Avenue end, the Namaste Bookshop sign hangs over the entrance. Step inside and ask for the smudge and resin counter.
