Introducting Talisman
Talisman is a line of functional and fashionable jewelry that serves as an on-the-go mental health aid! These therapeutic wearables and fidget jewelry are designed to help ground the wearer and teach self-care! Sensory grounding elements are incorporated into the work so the wearer can cope with anxiety or other symptoms by distracting busy minds and hands with the kinetic jewelry, breathing in essential oils from the aromatherapy beads, or feeling protected by the self defense rings!
Taisman aims to be a mental health conscious brand that works towards easing stressors and aiding anxieties, as well as taking a step towards ending the negative stigmas surrounding mental health!
How it all began...
Talisman (oringinally Adarabella Designs) sprouted from our founders Senior Research and Design Thesis, at the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan. Dara Firoozi, our founder and designer, was inspired to make a wearable version of the sensory grounding kit that she developed with her therapist. The kit contained 5 items, one for each sense to help be present in the moments of anxiety.
