The Seraphic Path: 7-Decade Franciscan Crown Rosary
Unlike the traditional 5-decade rosary, the Franciscan Crown invites you into a longer, more rhythmic meditation on the 'Seven Joys.' This is a deep-work tool for those practicing 'Joy-Spotting'—a psychological technique used to rewire the brain toward gratitude. Its length allows for a more immersive, trance-like prayer state, ideal for deep stress reduction.
Somatic Anchor: The extended length of this seven-decade crown provides a deeper, sustained rhythmic experience for the nervous system. By engaging with the beads for a longer duration, the body has more time to settle out of the "fight or flight" response and into the parasympathetic "rest and digest" state. The repetitive tactile sensation of moving through seventy beads facilitates "bilateral stimulation," which can help the brain process complex emotions and lower physiological arousal. This rosary is a profound tool for anyone seeking to cultivate a lasting sense of internal space and joy-oriented focus.
A Mission of Healing: In keeping with our commitment to holistic community wellness, all proceeds from this rosary are donated to local St. Vincent de Paul conferences in Chicagoland to help neighbors facing food and housing insecurity. Each rosary is handmade with care and comes with a travel pouch and a guide to the prayers.
