A Mala is a sacred strand of 108 beads. 

Malas have been used for thousands of years to help bring focus and power to one's path. Their origins trace back to India and their roots are in Buddhism and Hinduism.

Mala is a Sanskrit word that translates to 'Heavenly Garland'.

Traditionally, Malas were used as a tool to assist in Japa meditation. Japa means 'to recite'.

In this style of meditation, the beads on the Mala are used to mark the repetition of a mantra.

As you pass each bead through your fingers, you recite your mantra. This mindfulness allows us to concentrate our energy on a single point rather than letting it wander. 

The wonderful thing about a Mala is that you decide what it will represent for you. You don't need to have any sort of spiritual practice or meditate with it. You can simply wear it as a beautiful piece of jewelry.

​

When you put it on, let it fill you with confidence and inspire you.

Let it remind you of all the amazing things you are capable of. Having that constant, gentle reminder is surprisingly powerful. It helps bring your awareness back to the path you are on.
