A common way to use the mala is to track a “japa,” or mantra meditation. The repetitive recitation of a single sound, such as “om,” a few words, such as “om mani padme hum,” or a longer mantra, such as the Gayatri Mantra, can be calming and transformative. Whether you’re chanting out loud, whispering, or repeating a phrase silently, tracing the beads of the mala with your fingers can help you keep track of the japa. “Japa” translates to “muttering” in Sanskrit.
Similar to praying with rosary beads, meditating with a japa mala has been shown to help slow respiration and encourage well-being. Repeating your mantra redirects the mind from daily obsessions and introduces positive thought patterns.
🤎Tiger Eye
Tiger Eye stone can use its fiery golden-brown chi to stir the pot and awaken motivation. When feeling blocked, the energy of Tiger’s Eye can also cut straight through that lack of motivation and help shift focus by encouraging a more active approach to life. Tiger Eye can help to heal plenty of various relationships. Not only can it aid in positively overcoming low confidence to strengthen relationships with the self, but it can lend a hand when it comes to tricky emotional ties to finances and money.
💚African Turquoise
African turquoise is considered the stone of evolution, bringing about great change and transformation in life. This gorgeous stone opens up your mind to the possibility of all things new and unknown. It helps us to accept the need for change and gives us the strength to pursue it with confidence. I imagine it would be beautiful and supportive in a design that someone would wear to a job interview, first day of work, or an introductory meeting with a new client or friend.
