Shades Of Me

Gwen Rebbeck

Quick Bio
Graduated from The Art Institute of Philadelphia with Honors { Who's Who in Americas Junior Colleges { Awarded best final project in Fashion Marketing { Stopped drinking July 9, 1991 (this is when life really began) { Married the love of my life, John, in January of 1995 { Had my first and only child Reid in 1996

I purchased my first set of prayer beads in my twelfth year of sobriety, after going through a hard time with life in general. This is when I hit an emotional bottom and had a second spiritual awakening. I started to seek out ways to deepen my spiritual practice. A friend told me that it takes six repetitions of something for the brain to truly process it. When I prayed I started to repeat my prayers six times using my fingers to keep track of my count. Searching for meditation aids online, I found a woman (Nancy T.) who made Anglican Prayer beads and happened upon her Serenity Beads at Innerlightcentral.com. I began to use them daily and found deeper meaning in the Third Step Prayer and the Seventh Step Prayer. I go around the beads saying a prayer per bead. Soon both prayers took on new meaning to me. I hope you too will find something deeper in this practice.

Today I create Twelve Step beads hoping others will find the benefits of prayer and meditation I have. You can find my Twelve Step Prayer Beads and Rosaries at http://www.TwelveBeads.com
