Healing Beads

 Here are some not well know, but not less powerful healing beads, as used by various cultures:

Rudraksha Beads

Made from the berries of Rudraksha tree, they have been used by Hindus (as well as Sikhs and Buddhists) as rosary at least from the 10th century onwards for meditation purposes and to sanctify the mind, body and soul. Rudraksha is also used for treatment of various diseases in traditional Indian medicine.

Story Beads

Non-denominational prayer and meditation beads for healing, spiritual growth, and telling your own story

 

 

 

Baltic Amber 

 Apart from various known healing powers of amber, amber necklaces are used as  Baby teething remedy. Wearing baltic amber close to the skin is a traditional European remedy for baby teething. A natural analgesic, amber will help calm a baby without resorting to drugs. Used for centuries in Europe, amber's natural anti-inflamitory and pain relieving properties are perfect to soothe teething babies.

Worry Beads  

In Greece, they are called komboloi, and probably evolved from komboskini κομποσκοίνι, the Greek prayer rope but has no more religious meaning, and it is used to pass the time, relieve stress, and by people who want to limit smoking. Armenians also have their own worry beads which serve the same purpose as the komboloi and are also non-religious in nature.

 

Magnetic Beads

 Magnetic therapy is a system based on the idea that bodies form an electro-magnetic field that respond to the healing power of magnets, this is because iron makes up about four per cent of blood content and every ion - or atom - contained in cells produces an electrical impulse, these three elements make up bodies own electrical magnetic field.
