Mala Bead Necklace / Mala Bead Bracelet (Agalwood)

Mala Bead Necklace / Mala Bead Bracelet (Agalwood)


This mala bead prayer necklace is simple looking, made of wood, perfect polished beads. 

Love how humble it looks and the meaning of it all. I think is a reminder of how we should leave our lives in order to be at peace. Great for meditating, it connects us with nature and ground us to the earth like when doing an asana like the tree, which is very difficult for yoga beginners.

It has 108 beads of which you can repeat affirmations or mantras.

Looks very nice wrapped around the wrist and is a way of remembering each affirmation after meditate. 



Note: I received this product free or highly discounted for review and an honest and un-biased opinion.

What are mala beads? 

A mala is a strand of beads, traditionally used for counting during mantra meditations. Malas can consist of 108 beads, 54 beads, 27 beads, 21 or 19 beads. Malas have been used since at least the 10th century as a meditation aid. They allow us to focus the mind on a single pointed task as we work through our meditation. If you practice meditation and yoga, a mala can be a powerful tool in your quest for wellness and clearer understanding.

Using a mala is easy. Begin at the summit or guru of the mala, the larger bead at its base. Drape the first mala bead, the one adjacent to the guru on your right, in between your thumb and middle finger. Use your thumb to slide the first mala bead down and move to the next bead. Repeat this movement for a count of 108, 54, 27, 21 or 19 beads. During this process you may choose to focus on your breathing, moving past each mala bead as you take an in breath or an out breath. As you do so the mala acts an object that aids in a single pointed focus on your breath. In other meditations, you may wish to focus on something that you wish for in yourself or something you wish to understand about yourself. For example, if you are working through an emotion in your life, such as forgiveness, you may want to use your mala during a meditation for forgiveness. As you pass over each mala bead you may want to imagine radiant loving energy passing through your body and then flowing to the person or situation you need to forgive. If you repeat this 108 times over one meditation, several weeks of meditation, or longer you will notice a shift in your consciousness and energy state.

The form of the mascara divides each eyelash and must important: Don't leave clumps. Feels light weight and it's great for wearing contacts, which is a problem when you put a heavy mascara. Love the look it gives by extending the lashes.

WELLNESS: Better sleep column alignment pillow.

Memory Foam Pillow with Cooling Gel  Had the best comfort sleep the first time I used this contour soft pillow. It is very soft, and the cover has this cooling soothing sensation. Looks very well made and with great materials.  Love how soft the cover is and that it can be removed for washing separately.  The only problem that you will have is that everyone in your house will want one. It is designed for multiple uses, as the sides have different width and inclination.  If you sleep sideways, then you can get your column aligned by using the wider side on your neck, the hollow part supports your head and you can feel your body relaxing as you slumber to sleep.  If you sleep facing up, then the best way is to use the lower elevation side on your neck and the curve will support your head without obstructing your air flow as it is the norm with pillows with too much filling.  There are so many other uses that will benefit your he...
