Join instructors Patrice Shawhan and Rev Pat Gates as we learn about the historic use of prayer beads, and create your own version for meditation, prayer, spiritual awareness and devotion. Receive advice on how to encourage a state of inner calm in everyday life. The bead strands you create will contribute to a warm heart, a clear mind and an acknowledgment of our profound interconnection with all of life. All supplies will be provided but feel free to bring any talisman, bead or otherwise to the class for a truly personal meditation strand.
