What Are Waist Beads?

Waistbeads/Waist beads 

Traditional African beaded jewelry strung on durable high-quality thread worn around the waist/hips. Waistbeads are a deeply-rooted African tradition symbolizing spirituality, sensuality, womanhood, fertility, femininity, growth and development, and body shaping. In some African tribes, waistbeads are a rite of passage signifying the coming of age from girlhood to womanhood. Traditionally, waistbeads serve as a sign of wealth, femininity, and spiritual well-being. They are also known to increase a woman's confidence and self-love. Waistbeads have since become a part of fashion, a statement jewelry piece paying homage, and can be worn for weight awareness to track and manage one's weight loss and gain.

My Intentions:

Virtuous Rocks' Waistbeads are tools/instruments used to help you remain cognizant of YOU. Each strand is handcrafted and creatively unique in character. Cultivating positive energy, their rich colors and bold designs are inspired by all things divine around us. 

Whatever season of your life you are in, I pray that you celebrate your body and tie each strand with mindfulness and the best intentions for your spirit and your life. Seal each strand with unconditional love, and wear them with the upmost confidence!

With your crown held high, be BOLD, and let your inner light and virtue shine through!
