Abigail Zoe Martin, and Rashmi Banthia are the dynamic women behind the Eden Apothecary line, combining their unique perspectives and expertise to bring these healing products to life. Learn about how their individual paths aligned to become Eden Apothecary below.

  • Founder & Director

    Eden Apothecary is a unique brand of beautiful non-toxic skincare created by Master Reiki Healer Abigail Zoe Martin after four years of extensive research. She has been on a spiritual journey since her twenties and that research and knowledge has been poured into this brand – it’s not just a product she has created- it's a philosophy.

    Abigail Zoe Martin is a visionary creative, spiritual explorer, and the force behind Eden Healing and the nonprofit Energy Unltd. A British-born portrait photographer, Master Reiki Practitioner, and Certified Life Coach, Abigail weaves together the worlds of art, wellness, and transformation with a rare blend of emotional depth, insight, and artistic power.

    Her journey began with a passion for human connection and a camera in hand. After completing her studies at the University of Kent and the University of Miami, Abigail launched her career in media—only to be irresistibly drawn to portraiture, where her gift for capturing the soul of her subjects quickly gained acclaim. Her debut solo exhibition, I Must Dance! (1999), lit up London’s Soho district and led to a string of commissions for top-tier publications. Her deeply human portraits of BBC Radio 4 presenters were later acquired by the National Portrait Gallery in London, where they remain part of the permanent collection.

    But Abigail’s creative ambition stretched beyond the frame.

    In 2018, she unveiled Chicago Lights at the Zhou B Art Center—a striking celebration of the city’s spirit that drew over 1,000 attendees on opening night and became a published coffee table book. Then in 2020, she launched Eden Healing—a brand born not just of inspiration, but of purpose. Rooted in sacred wellness, intuitive design, and a commitment to conscious living, Eden Healing offers transformational healing services, natural body products, soul-centered interviews, and immersive events that awaken and align.

    That same year, she founded Energy Unltd, a nonprofit dedicated to funding creative projects that uplift, educate, and unite.

    In 2022, Abigail brought her boldest vision to life. She led a global expedition to Jaipur, India, with her creative team to document sacred sites and engage in dialogue with yogis, Ayurvedic doctors, and spiritual teachers. The knowledge gathered became the soul of her multimedia exhibition Energy, which premiered in Chicago to wide acclaim. Through photography, sound, science, and storytelling, the show created a transportive experience—inviting audiences to reimagine what’s possible for human wellness, balance, and connection.

    Abigail continues to pioneer work at the intersection of creativity, healing, and consciousness. She is a catalyst for change, a guide for personal transformation, and a passionate believer in the power of beauty and intention to shift the world.
