It's the kind of shop that I walk into and all I can do is mumble, "I want that, and that, and that"! There are original paintings, ceramics, jewelry, books and cards, and an outside area of yard decor. On the day we were there, David Harris Lang was there. He's the author of three books that are sold here. They are fiction mystery thrillers based on places he lived and spent time in the Far East. We bought all three and walked away with three autographed books! So cool! This stretch of road on Los Rios across the railroad tracks in San Juan Capistrano is so charming.

This comes with the territory of being an Empath, clairvoyant and claircognizant. One of my soul connections is with rocks/gems/crystals and the energy therein so as you can safely surmise: I ADORE crystal/spiritual shops and have been to quite a few in various cities across the country. I recently fell upon Art of Inner Peace (I've noticed the best spiritual shops have found ME versus the other way around) and am absolutely in love. San Clemente is known as the darling, relaxing, sparkling blue water beach town in between Los Angeles and San Diego on the Southern California map and is my personal requirement to visit whenever going between the two cities. This was precisely the case when I left LA to spend my birthday weekend in San Diego. Avenida def Mar, the main touristry strip that houses shops, eateries, boutiques, the post office and businesses; never fails to draw me in with its perfectly Cali surf vibe. While perusing the sidewalk, a quick sideways glance revealed, "Crystals!" (I shouted this); and I ran into Art of Inner Peace so fast that I probably left a trail of smoke behind me like in Looney Tunes cartoons. Upon entering, my eyes feasted on an array of crystals/rocks/gems, colorful textiles, shiny sound bath bowls, jewelry, wands, sage bundles, meditation supplies; while the scent of incense permeated my nose and amazing energies seeped into my pores from every direction. Art of Inner Peace is stunning with a selection that makes the store feel like an entire experience versus just a spot to shop. I could have spent hours looking at everything! Whatever your spiritual needs: you will find it at Art of Inner Peace. Art of Inner Peace is amazing as is just to browse; but honey: it gets even better! I can never have enough crystals - I am like the Cookie Monster with cookies - and can not rave enough about the selection of crystals/rocks/druzy crystals/ spheres/ icons at Art of Inner Peace. Whomever is their buyer knows their stuff AND they must have the most amazing suppliers! All of the pieces are both stunning on the eyes and of the utmost quality. One would therefore expect Art of Inner Peace to be off the charts in price point but NO! The prices on the crystals are incredibly affordable and basically a steal for the quality. Art of Inner Peace does NOT scam over customers! LOVE THIS PLACE! I selected a beautiful druzy amethyst crystal alongside an adjustable costume-vintage style ring ($10) and expected a simple check out experience but even this was stupendous at Art of Inner Peace. The female associate was so welcoming and instantly commented on my own energy and vibes. She (wish I caugfht her name) made me feel like I was a celebrity in her store and that she was being gifted by MY visit! And this wasn't some grifting act either - this was genuine. It is an absolutely pleasure to patron such an establishment where the business is truly thankful for their customers. Art of Inner Peace is perfect on all counts: the selection, ambiance, prices and customer service. This is a store that others should use a template for their own business plan. Whether you live in San Clemente or just passing through; Art of Inner peace is a MUST for your spiritual shop needs.
