I'm very pleased to announce Shanti Presence jewelry will be offered on a Pay What You Can basis!
I've always struggled with pricing. I wanted to charge a price that felt good in my heart, and I wanted to charge a price that felt good to you. I didn't want money to get in the way of my craft. I make my mala beads from the heart - and I'm not suggesting that other people do not create from their heart - but for me, in order to continue to be genuine and follow the path of my heart, something had to change.
I consider this part of my Karma Yoga practice. A rebellious yogi isn't afraid to go against the norm. She isn't afraid to do what her heart says to do. A spiritual rockstar heeds her intuition. And my intuition told me to let go of pricing. That voice has been there for a while, but I've finally started to listen to it. I'm breathing easier just typing this. The freedom is so nourishing.
So how will it work?
The prices in the shop are merely suggested prices. You can pay more, you can pay less. There will be a minimum price listed, which means an offer cannot be made below that price. I set a minimum price so I am able to cover the cost of materials, and be able to continue to offer the pieces on a pay what you can basis. Minimum prices will be listed in the description of the item. To make an offer, simply send a message to me on etsy and let me know the price you wish to pay.
Basically, just pay what feels good to you. I am happy if you're happy.
A percentage of the money received will be going to charity as well. I plan to donate to one charity a month.
If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask!
Namaste :)
