A traditional mala necklace (japa mala) is a prayer necklace consisting of 108 beads, used in Buddhism and other religious and spiritual followings.

Malas are typically used to recite mantras, sacred words and phrases, and prayers, so to receive the vibrational energy of each word spoken during your own personal spiritual practice.

A mantra consists of sacred words, phrases, prayers, and reminders recited during spiritual practice and meditation.

No. Your practice is the one that is unique to your personal journey, going where you feel called and trusting your intuition that your soul will align your own unique spiritual practice.

Many people also wear malas now as ‘inspired jewelry’ and use them in their daily lives and not just in sacred spaces.

We do not duplicate any malas. Each mala knotted and made is the only one in stock. Each mala requires intentional meditation on the experience of handling and knotting each bead.

Malas were created with the intention of their temporariness. Everyday you wear your mala, you are holding within you, your prayers. The necklace itself is the physical reminder of your divinity.

Once it has broken, many say that the ‘lessons’ have been integrated. There are times when malas may break quickly on its own. Often, this is a wake-up call, to draw attention to its wearer and what is perspiring in their physical reality & how it is aligning with the growth of their spirit.

There are always exceptions. Please reach out to me if you feel called to have your mala restrung. A restringing fee will apply.
