I found this little store as I was walking down 4th Street to meet with some friends. What immediately caught my attention was the natural aroma from the incense. Anyone who knows how to differentiate when aromas are natural or artificial will sense the beauty of a natural aroma right away. That's the reason I keep going to that store to buy incenses and "palo santo". For the ones who may not know, palo santo is a sacred wood that comes from the palo santo tree. When burned, it is believed to have both medicinal and therapeutic healing power.
However, articles related to energy are not the only ones at the store. There's also beautiful clothes and jewelry. Hindu rings and bracelets are my favorites.
There are also carpets, drapes and long and colorful fabrics for home decor.
In general, I love that the store is also near the pier. So every time I visit them I also make a little walk to the beach to see the sunset.
The lady at the store is a Mexican woman and she's the sweetest.
