The items they had were great quality with a huge variety of unique gifts, crystals, cards, carvings, and stones. What stands out to me is the fact that they host and sell items by local authors, healers and artists. I plan on attending a workshop next week and will be driving 2 hours to do so.

Perhaps the dumbest thing I've ever seen! DO NOT PARK IN A PARKING GARAGE HERE!!! The borough of…read moreGettysburg is out to make a buck and apparently has ZERO CONCERN for pedestrian safety. I was in town to buy a vehicle and parked downtown after to grab lunch and supported a few local businesses. When i returned to my vehicle I found a violation on my windshield and figured i maybe accidentally parked in a reserved section. But no . . . . It was for backing into the spot. People do this for SAFETY when pulling out of the spot. So much better visibility to see both vehicles and pedestrians . . . especially children. Sure, there's a small sign at the entrance (which they include an image of on the violation as a CYB/CYA since they know this is an underhanded money grab). What a backwards way to target tourists (in a town largely dependent on tourism) and make them feel good about chosing to visit. CONGRATULATIONS to the borough of Gettysburg boneheads who drafted this IDIOCRACY!! I had just spent over $30,000 at your local businesses, but that will NEVER happen again. You'll get your $15, but will never see me again as there are plentiful quaint little historic towns that I will be spending my money at in the future.

I understand the concept of parking meters. Really, I do. The city gets paid. And it is correct…read morethat I did not pay the meter. For some reason, I thought that the time for paying the meter ended at 5:00 PM, but that must have been Chambersburg or some other town. So it is correct that there was a violation here. I find it interesting that the time on the ticket was less than 5 minutes after I'd left the car on the street and gone into the Blue & Gray Bar, but I guess that they're just extra vigilant with their parking violations and revenue generating unit here in Gettysburg. But what pushed me over the edge was the $2.50 "service charge" for the convenience of paying the ticket over the internet. Irritating.

I really appreciated the individually prices stones and the information cards available with each. I usually shop stores and don't find anything I don't have but I was happy to find 5 different stones I did not already own. They have a nice selection of other items too. My husband found a very cool ring for himself. I definitely will go back if I'm ever back in Gettysburg.

There are books, local art, and little details everywhere that make you want to look around instead of just grabbing your coffee and leaving. I had a cappuccino and it was smooth and well made, but honestly the atmosphere is what makes this place stand out. It's the kind of place where you can sit for a while, relax, or get some work done without feeling rushed. Also loved the concept of supporting local artists and the overall community feel. Definitely a place I'd come back to when I want something a bit different than a typical coffee shop.

A Metaphysical Journey. I have purchased informative books from their extensive inventory (I am a librarian), I have bought beautifully carved crystals, embellished salt lamps and powerful jewelry. I enjoy buying from the selection of handmade Himalayan salt soaps. Mostly, though, I utilize the EXCEPTIONAL services offered to enhance my soul's journey. I attend the monthly Sound Healings where chakra bowls, drums and voices raise the roof! I have monthly private meetings with Pat, who channels Blessed Mother, Padre Pio, Saints and Angels (I promise!) I have a Catholic background, so that works for me. I also have private monthly meetings with Judy, who is an extremely intuitive medium, using the aide of Tarot Cards. She has over 20 years of experience to offer you, and is gifted with connecting you to loved ones that have crossed over. She specifically connects me with my guardian Angel. I have also had one meeting with Cathy. It was the greatest guided meditation that I have ever experienced. My first step was to have my aura photo taken with Sharon. She discussed it in detail with me. I was able to meditate in the rare Stargate, in between photos. I also had a reiki session with Sharon, that was quite memorable. As you can see, Gracefull Heart has a wide range of benefits to offer. I find the prices for products and services to be extremely fair! I can not complete this review without stating the most obvious; the owner, Sharon, and her exceptional staff are the REAL REASON that I have visited the shop every week for the past six months. They ALL go out of their way to assist me in every way possible. I am always fully attended to. I feel so welcome and comfortable there... it's like "coming home". I hope that you visit, soon!
