Custom handheld non-denominational prayer and meditation beads.
Story-Beads work for four simple reasons:
They are tactile. They bring the sensory elements of touch and sight (beauty) which cements the practice in the real world. No longer are practices just in your head, or just in your heart. With Story-Beads they’re grounded in the physical world.
They are a lens for focus. They act as a tangible reminder of the desire behind the practice you’re trying to make stick. Remembering a new practice is the only way to make it stick.
They are story. Story is more compelling than lists, more compelling than facts. A story engages multiple parts of the brain and allows for more complex meanings. It can include the how, and the why behind it. It can be nurturing. It can replace a negative story.
They are uniquely yours. You get to choose the meaning. You get to choose the symbols based on your personal, heart-felt associations. You get to choose how to work with them based on what works best for you.
Each one of these reasons alone is powerful. When you combine them all into ONE simple practice, you vastly increase the likelihood that it will become a consistent and beneficial part of your everyday life.
