How to Use Your Mala
A mala can be used during meditation, with a mantra or affirmation, or simply as a way to slow down and focus.
-
Hold your mala and take a slow, steady breath.
-
Simply take a deep breath with each bead, allowing yourself to slow down and relax.
-
Or, choose an affirmation, mantra or intention to focus on. You can choose your own or use the original intention of your mala.
-
Continue around the mala, allowing your breathing and focus to become calm and steady.
Your mala has 108 beads, a sacred number often associated with spiritual wholeness, completion and the connection between the inner and outer self. Take your time and enjoy the journey, one bead at a time.
If you feel you need more time, simply go around again.
