Gergana Kirilova

Founder
Gergana hails from Bulgaria and draws inspiration from her homeland when writing her blogs and giving spiritual and professional coaching. She uses spiritual practices in the work she does for friends, family and all fellow travelers alongside her on this journey called life. She began her journey as a Reiki master when living in Lincoln, Nebraska, and strived to create an alternative healing community in the Midwest before eventually moving to the Portland, OR area. Now in Portland and among a larger metaphysical community, she opens her services to those seeking and exploring alternative healing practices. Offering Reiki and chakra cleansing services as well as classes in the practices, she continues to inform others and put healing into action for adults, kids, and even pets. She strives to help others discover their potential both spiritually and professionally.

About The Way Home Shop

Your one stop hippie shop and gathering place
The Way Home Shop is a place, where people from all walks of life can gather. Maybe someone needs an energy healing, or a new crystal. Maybe someone needs a new wand, or a spell, or a psychic reading. Or... maybe someone needs human contact and a warm cup of tea without the expectation they have to spend money. Lately we are so consumed with technology, and even though the Pandemic is behind us, many of us still struggle to get back to being outside and around people. The Way Home is the place where everyone should feel at home and welcome. The Shop was founded in December of 2023 based on a dream, and a true, realized manifestation.

What does IYI mean?

IYI is the symbol of Tangra or God, used by proto Bulgarians and discovered in many artifacts throughout the region of Bulgaria. It is found at the center of the Pliska Rosette. The symbol of Tangra depicts two arms that are opened towards the Sky and the Sun - they point towards the place where everything essential for our existence on Earth comes from. The vertical lines on each side, are a representation of the permanent energy flow from the Space to the Earth and back. Tangra show our way home.

About our products

Everything we sell is imported fair trade and ethically sourced. We work with many local artists, who put their energy, love and creativity in everything they have made from jewelry to candles and spell jars. Our Apothecary herbs are ethically and locally sourced by an experienced herbalist and our honey is locally harvested. We know the origin of all of our crystals we sell, unless they are on commission (e.g. local artist's jewelry). We do not believe in fast fashion but try to keep up with the seasons. Each item in our little shop is selected with love an intention.

Haven't had the chance to visit the shop yet but I've been a huge fan of Geri and her amazing "Ole, Maiko!" pain relief ointment for some time now. It's by far, the most effective topical pain relief ointment I've ever used. Great product, great person! You won't be dissapointe...
