The Heart of Fraternity Rosary
Inspired by the pastoral mission of Pope Francis, The Heart of Fraternity Rosary is a visual call to "social friendship" and universal love. Featuring a centerpiece of the Holy Father, this design combines vibrant red and serene sky-blue beads to represent the "diplomacy of mercy"—the balance between passionate action and peaceful encounter. It is a sturdy companion for those seeking to live with an open heart, dedicated to recognizing the inalienable dignity of every person.
Somatic Anchor: The high-contrast colors and smooth texture of these beads support the somatic practice of "Relational Grounding". In therapy, we recognize that we are "social beings" who realize our dignity in relationship with others. Moving through the decades, use the rhythmic transition between colors as a physical prompt to practice fraternal openness, imagining yourself as a "Good Samaritan" who stops to bear the pain of others rather than passing by. This tactile engagement helps shift the nervous system from a defensive "closed" state to an "open" state of connection and safety, allowing you to settle into the present moment with a sense of universal belonging.
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.
