Our authentic, handmade prayer mala necklace is crafted in Nepal and is traditionally used in Buddhism for the spiritual practice of Japa, or Japa Meditation. The term "Japa" comes from Sanskrit, meaning “to utter softly or repeat internally.” For centuries, these prayer beads have served as essential tools for meditation and spiritual growth.
 
Each bead allows you to keep track of your mantras or count your breaths during meditation. Rolling the beads through your fingers offers a tangible way to focus your energy and attention, serving as a gentle reminder to ground and refocus yourself every few moments. They provide a tactile anchor to return to whenever your mind begins to wander.
 
These beautiful beads are designed for setting intentions, meditating, or simply wearing for their aesthetic appeal and positive energy! They inspire us to pause, breathe, and invest in moments of self-care and compassion.
 
For thousands of years, malas have served as powerful meditation tools. You can use the beads to count your mantras or simply track your breaths during meditation. If you practice yoga, placing the necklace at the head of your mat can help instill your intention into your practice, allowing the mala to absorb energy and enhance your focus on movement.
 
All of our prayer malas are handcrafted by Tibetan artisans in Nepal. Since each mala is made by hand, some variations may occur, making each piece uniquely special.
