I'm not even sure how many years it has been since Inner Path - North began as New Age People. It started, believe it or not, in Broad Ripple in the same building as the Vogue Nightclub. From there, it moved to a location I simply can't remember. Then, it came over and has stayed at 86th and Ditch. A year or two ago, New Age People adopted the same name as its sister store on the southside - Inner Path.
Quite honestly, I think the name Inner Path is a better reflection of what it has always been about. While New Age spirituality is certainly a part of it all, it's far from a comprehensive description of what is offered here.
This is located in a large strip center. It's directly next to where Stein Mart used to be. There's a curb-cut almost directly in front of it. The doors are kind of heavy, though the employees here are always helpful.
Inner Path is definitely a spirituality and self-help store with a comprehensive approach toward spirituality ranging from Christian to Eastern religions to New Age to any number of other paths. What can you get here? Clothing, jewelry, crystals/stones, candles/incense, books, psychic readings, a wide variety of religious items/statues, and a whole lot more. You can take classes here (this is where I became a Reiki master) and get various services.
I've been a longtime fan of New Age People and now Inner Path. This time around, I did notice the store was a LOT more crowded toward the back and less accessible than usual. This surprised me (and somewhat disappointed me) as they've historically been remarkable.
I used to be a more frequent shopper, though I now live in the Lawrence area and simply don't make it around here as much. That said, I'll always love this place and the atmosphere, energy, and people will always make me want to stop when I'm in the area. Today, I only came home with incense but I love their incense varieties and am sitting here burning the incense even as I write this review. read more
