Question 1

How do I measure my waist?

Accepted Answer

To measure your waist, use soft measuring tape. Measure the area where you want your beads to fall. It is okay if you don't measure accurately. Your waist beads will come with an adjustable chain so that you can make them longer or shorter.

How to fit your "permanent" non-adjustable waist beads for your body

You will need a bowl or bag to catch the excess beads that fall and scissors.

1.     Take the strand and wrap it around your waist or hips, wherever you want them to fall.  Identify where you will be releasing the excess beads.

2.     Cut the knot with the short end of the strand to remove some of the beads you don't need.

3.     DO NOT cut the other end. It is longer and you will use it to tie the beads on your body.

4.     Fit yourself to see if the beads are the correct length.

5.     Continue to remove the beads until you reach the desired length.

6.     Once you have the right length, tie the two ends in a knot around your waist. You may have to make multiple knots to secure them.

7.     Cut the excess cord.
 Now enjoy. Use the leftover beads to make jewelry (i.e., earrings, necklaces, etc.)

Question 3

How do I care for my waist beads?

Accepted Answer

Waist bead Care Instructions
Waist beads are a form of adornment that will assist you in deriving energy from your sacral space. As you move through the day, be aware of your body. Bring awareness to your belly by being conscious of your pelvic floor. This will help your waist beads last longer, preventing them from popping. Care for yourself gently through the act of slowing down.
