This bracelet is a tool for self-examination that deepens our consciousness of God’s movements in our lives. Five hundred years ago, the Holy Spirit inspired St. Ignatius to create a guide for all to fall deeper in love with God and to feel His love in a tangible way. He called it a Spiritual Awakening, and created a 5-step daily exercise. Wear this black corded bracelet with hematite rounds and gold & silver tone St. Benedict Jubilee Medals as you practice the exercise daily — in the morning and in the evening.

Begin each day with the five beads next to the gold St. Benedict Medal, and as you pray each of the steps of the Examen, move a bead to the silver St. Benedict Medal. In the evening, as you pray each step, move the beads back to the gold St. Benedict Medal. The "blessed" charm and St. Ignatius medal are reminders of God's love for you and your desire to unite your heart with his, just like St. Ignatius. Makes a great gift for teens and young adults, and anyone desiring holiness but needing help to stay on track. Includes directions for the Spiritual Exercise.
