Karma Star
Prayer Bead Community Callings
How we roll together, matters.
Join Tara as she offers a sacred and kind space to come together to participate in a shared personal ceremony of rolling our own prayer beads that empower us on our personal and collective paths. This can be a healing and powerful transference of energy that uplifts the spirit and continues to uplift our own purpose in knowing we are creating kinship in the purest de-colonial way possible. Taking back and defining our own value in each bead.
Helping hands, bonding strands, braiding futures.
If you are an organization that advocates for refugees, women’s emotional health and well-being, survivor solutions, land love, and protecting children and our elders, and would like Tara to facilitate a workshop, please contact us for more information. If you are someone who would like a one-on-one, customized personal prayer bead session, please reach out to Tara on how to make this possible.
Tara is creating space to be available for prayerbead workshops to uplift and empower us in our collective healing.
