This book is not a how-to-bead book nor a book on how to lead your life, it is an invitation

to be in the present moment with a pile of beads and a string and see what magic

happens.

This delightful book triggered a memory I treasure. Eleanor Wiley evokes a deep intuition in our hearts

when she speaks of "seeing your life as a strand of beads." You are holding in your hands a guidebook

for following that intuition. It will lead you to surprising insights and offers a charming approach to

life's supreme task: living in the present moment.

Eleanor not only encourages creative and playful ways to use beads but also puts them to work as a

metaphorical tool refl ecting a personal life journey. What fun

With characteristic candor and wisdom, Eleanor Wiley offers a metaphor for a life well-lived - a strand

of beads composed of joys, sorrows and everything in between. This book will help those seeking grace,

love and strength through the power of meditation with beads fi nd a new level of awareness about themselves

and the world in which they live.

Seeing Life as a Strand of Beads.......

Each of us is a one-of-a kind creation. Yet we share a common thread...We can all start

out with the same beads, but our creations will have a personal imprint. What would your

life, up to now, look like if it were a strand of beads?
