Beaded necklaces are used in various spiritual practices around the globe as aids to meditation. From malas to rosaries, this form of guiding your mind into a calm space can help anyone, from novice to seasoned meditation practitioner, hone their practice.
A traditional Mala consists of 108 beads, 1 guru bead, and a tassel or charm. It is passed through the fingers as a mantra is recited on each bead helping you to more deeply connect with yourself and quiet your mind.
In this workshop Jean Parker-Renga, jewelry maker and owner of Lily’s Cocoon, will guide you in the creation of your own gemstone mala to use in your practice or simply as a lovely necklace to wear.
All materials are included in the cost of the workshop with a variety of gemstones to choose from.
