Turquoise Sky

Handcrafted in Rishikesh, India, this 108-bead meditation mala is made for japa, mantra and mindful practice. Each mala is dipped in the sacred Ganges River as a blessing before beginning its journey. In yogic tradition, 108 is a sacred number associated with wholeness, spiritual completeness and the infinite. Sandalwood is paired with bright Howlite Turquoise for a fresh, uplifting mala with a striking blue accent and relaxed bohemian character.

Bead/stone 1: Sandalwood

★ Calm  ★ Grounding  ★ Meditation  ★ Spiritual Awareness
Sandalwood has been treasured for centuries in Indian spiritual and ceremonial traditions. Its warm natural fragrance is traditionally associated with calming the mind, grounding the senses and creating a peaceful atmosphere for meditation and prayer. Sandalwood mala beads are often used for japa practice, helping to bring attention gently back to mantra, breath and the present moment.

Bead/stone 2: Howlite Turquoise

★ Serenity  ★ Patience  ★ Self-Expression  ★ Wisdom
Howlite is traditionally associated with calm, patience and peaceful awareness, while its turquoise colouring evokes the symbolism of communication, wisdom and self-expression. Together these qualities make it a gentle meditation stone, encouraging a quieter mind, thoughtful words and a more accepting relationship with oneself.
