Healing Beads

• Beads, creativity, and healing are related. 
• Beads help us to break through the walls of doubt and criticism that prevent us from exploring our full artistic potential.
• Beads are a pathway to greater creativity and source for personal healing.
• If you want creativity, if you want to develop your artistic abilities, work with beads. 
• Beads are inherently creative due to the infinite variety of their colors, shapes, sizes, materials and texture.
• This artistic medium allows you to be like a child in a castle, every room filled with unique, challenging and beautiful toys, and hours to play with them.

 

• - Beads are good therapy and much cheaper than a therapist.
• - Beads bring beauty and a creative force to our lives that is healing and nurturing.
• - You and I are worth it; and we don’t have to sell our work to prove it!
• - Beads are valuable, whether they’re in a drawer, on our works-in-progress, or on a finished piece.
• - Making things with beads, even simply holding or looking at them, connects us to our artistic side, our creative force.
