More Information The Urban Goddess


For the last 3 years "The Urban Goddess" has been serving the Copperas Cove, Ft. Hood and surrounding areas as well as our troops overseas.

There are still some people perplexed by the name and nature of The Urban Goddess.

Simply put, The Urban Goddess represents the nurturing, healing and comforting qualities inherent in the many roles of women throughout history.

It evokes a powerful calm while promoting the health of mind, body, and spirit.

Visiting The Urban Goddess is more than a stop at a store. It is an eclectic encounter that combines herbal and holistic healing products, whole foods, artful items and an olfactory banquet of incense, soap, candles, and essential oils, all in aid of restful Well-Being.

The experience begins with a fresh cup of tea brewed from an enviable collection of over sixty tasty types.

Sweeten your tea with honey or sucanat (a natural sugar substitute) and feel free to read from one of many books or just join us for some conversation, around the table while enjoying the calming, sometimes meditative music.

The ambiance alone lends itself to relaxation - add to that the surprising varieties of teas, imports, handcrafted jewelry (created by local artists), unique clothing, scarves, polished stones and crystals.

If a deeper relaxation is on your shopping list, The Urban Goddess has in store a professional massage therapist, who takes appointments as well as walk-ins.

Gift certificates are available year round and can include Henna Tattoos and Hippie Hair Wrapping.

The Urban Goddess hopes to see you soon to share in the tranquil embrace of Mother Nature and the healthy options she has to share.

For those of you who are not local or cannot come directly to our store, don't fear because you can still see and order from us at our website:
