Description
A mala is a set of beads used for meditation.
Anyone can use or wear mala beads as a way to create calm and peace
in daily life. A mala usually contains 108 beads because this
number is closely tied to spiritual wellbeing in many traditions.
However you can find malas in a variety of bead counts!
Meditation malas have been used for thousands of years in many
traditions across the world. A mala often contains one or
more gemstones believed to have specific healing energies.
While traditionally rooted in Buddhism and Hinduism, malas can be
worn by anyone without preference towards spiritual background.
Because of their creative appeal, malas may also be found in art,
fashion and other modern mediums. You may be drawn to a
particular color combination, certain gemstone energy, or more
organic quality. Malas are used to count mantras (spoken
intentions). Move through the beads one at a time, using your thumb
to turn each bead, as you repeat a personal or traditional mantra.
Stop when you reach the guru bead (the larger bead dangling from
the top), this means it is time to reflect. Come out of meditation
gently, and do not worry about feeling “perfect” the first few
times you practice.
