Project Beginnings

Sedona, Arizona, United States
The original idea came from a woman we read about, who lost her son Ben. His mother, Jeannette MarĂ©, began fashioning bells as a therapy at first and then as a tribute. Twice a year they are hung around Tucson, with a note inviting those who find them to take them and let them serve as a reminder to spread kindness. It was kindness, after all - simple, everyday acts of human kindness - that had helped MarĂ© through the hardest days after Ben died.

You are welcome to leave comments on where your charms “found” you and what it meant to you. You can also contact us at CharmedSedona@gmail.com or at Charmed Sedona on Facebook.

Touch of an Angel

My 7 year old great granddaughter Austyn and I accompanied my husband to his oncologist appointment last week in Sedona.
As children aren't allowed into the oncology area Austyn said we should "investigate" the grounds outside the building.
As we neared the little wooden bridge, we spied a sparkle in a small tree branch and discovered one of your "Spread Kindness"chains dangling there. It was like being given a secret blessing. Austyn was thrilled and I was so touched, this message from unknown benefactors was like being touched by angels. Thank you.

    My husband and I traveled to Sedona from New York for our first vacation since the birth of our daughter 19 months ago. I found my kindness charm outside the Secret Garden Cafe in Tlaquepaque. After news of the awful terrorist attacks in Paris,and the alarmist warnings of an imminent attack on New York, the charm was a gentle reminder that there is goodness and purity in our world. May it always prevail.

    Amazing to see how some things feel like a coincidence, but are in fact meant to happen - it's like things are aligned and in place and the flow is just meant to happen.
