    Howlite, Labradorite, & Snowflake Obsidian

    Mantra: Om Mani Padme Hum

    Inspiration for this mala:

    Making the commitment to grow takes immense courage and often the most profound experiences are born out of confronting the darker sides of our consciousness.

    Negative and intrusive thoughts create a tremendous amount of suffering in our lives. Contemplative practices reveal the nature of thought to be nothing more than an illusion created within the mind. When thoughts inevitably arise during meditation, we are taught to turn our attention to the thought itself. Where is the thought? Can you see or touch it? These practices provide a window into the nature of consciousness. When we cast light onto the shadows of ourselves, we are able to break free from our mental shackles and eliminate unnecessary suffering.

     

    Howlite is a unique stone believed to make a direct connection from the root chakra to the crown chakra, keeping you grounded while getting in touch with your spiritual nature. Labradorite is considered a deeply spiritual stone and is used for spiritual healing and protection against negative energy. Snowflake obsidian is used to dissolve trauma and fear while observing dark and uncomfortable sides of consciousness. The pattern on snowflake obsidian is believed to reveal patterns in our thoughts and behaviors.

    Chakra: Crown & Root

    Snowflake Obsidian

    Grounding, Protection, Awareness

    Chakra: Root & Third Eye

    Believed to offer protection against fear to observe dark and uncomfortable sides of consciousness. The snowflake pattern is said to reveal self-defeating thoughts and behaviors and offer new ways of interacting with their internal and external world. restoring a deep-abiding sense of safety and reverence to bring one back to wholeness.

    Love using the mala during my meditations

    I love using the mala during my meditations. The beads feel "right" in my fingers and are nicely spaced due to the hand knotting, so that I can easily move from one bead to the next. The feel of real stone is extra special; glass beads don't feel as nice. The care and love that went into the construction is palpable! Thank you for creating such a meaningful and beautiful piece that I will love wearing and using for years to come.

    I Love Working with this Mala

    to set the tone of my day. The beads feel so nice in my hands and around my neck and wrist. They’re just the right weight and size, and each bead is perfect in its own way- just like us. I’m glad I bought this set.

    My Healing Mala

    I love my healing mala. It was carefully placed in a satin little bag that was shipped in a beautiful box. The minute I saw it I fell in love with it. I could feel it was made with love. Oh! and the delicate aroma relaxes my senses. The shopping experience was good, this is why I gave them five stars ✨.

    Empowerment Through the Perseverance Bundle

    I'm deeply moved by the Perseverance Bundle. The blend of Tigers Eye and Rainbow Obsidian beads is not only stunning but also imbued with energy that aids in my personal growth. Each hand-knotted bead is a testament to my own resilience and healing path.

    The Tigers Eye beads fill me with courage, while the Rainbow Obsidian grounds and encourages me. The Bodhi Seed Guru Bead, symbolizing enlightenment, inspires me with its reminder of the boundless potential within.

    The set's craftsmanship is extraordinary, radiating the care put into its creation. It feels extra special knowing my purchase supports Tibetan communities.

    This bundle has become a treasured tool for comfort and spiritual exploration, more than just an item—it's an investment in my well-being. A heartfelt thanks to Mala Of Merit for this transformative piece.

    Conscious Healing and Liberation Bundles

    I'm a return Mala of Merit customer and just purchased these two bundles. They arrived early and are absolutely gorgeous, as are all my MofM malas! The handwork is beautiful and each mala is made with a specific intention in mind. I love knowing that, as each bead is strung, the intention is repeated. The packaging of the malas is beautiful, as well! I can't wait to choose my next bundle!

    BENEFITS

    The Physical Benefits of Meditation

    Looking to improve your overall physical health? Incorporate regular meditation practices into your routine. This can lead to a decrease in blood pressure and heart rate, and even lower cholesterol levels. Mindful meditation can also enhance blood flow to the brain, which promotes healthy cognitive function and regulates bodily functions.

    The Mental Benefits of Meditation

    Regular meditation has been proven to alleviate symptoms of anxiety and depression thus reducing stress. Practicing meditation can also help manage pain, which is often a contributor to psychological difficulties. On top of that, meditating with mala beads can greatly improve your focus and memory.

    The Spiritual Benefits of Meditation

    Meditating with mala beads improve your spirituality and self discovery. It can help quiet the mind, bring deep relaxation and concentration, and cultivate a deeper connection with the divine. Using the beads to recite a mantra or prayer can help release negative emotions, cultivate gratitude, and develop compassion and understanding for oneself and others.

    HOW TO USE

    Meditation can take many different forms, one of which involves focusing on your own breath. With this method, you can meditate anywhere and at any time. If you're interested in trying out mala beads to enhance your breathing, follow these simple steps:

    • Hold the mala beads in one hand.
    • Let the beads drape across your fingers for seamless movement. Place your thumb and middle finger around one of the beads next to the guru bead. Some religious traditions prefer to avoid the index finger.
    • Take a deep breath (inhale and exhale).
    • Shift your fingers to the next bead and repeat, inhaling and exhaling once per bead.
    • Keep repeating this process until you reach the guru bead, completing a total of 108 breaths.
    • To do another round, move your fingers in the opposite direction until you reach the guru bead again.

    FAQ

    Yes! Like each of us, we will have flaws and never find another like us, your mala is the same…. and that’s a good thing. Our mala beads are natural and will have slight size and color variations from bead to bead, this is normal and adds character to each and every mala.We only use ethically sourced high-quality natural, never dyed, or treated semi-precious gemstones in our malas. Many of the less expensive malas you will find are using dyed or treated lower-quality beads in their malas to save on costs and make the gemstones look identical in shape and color. These may look better initially due to consistent bead color but over time the dyes and colors will leach the chemicals and fade from the gemstones.

    Absolutely!

    Our malas are much more to us than just a product that can be manufactured by a machine. A mala made by us is always handmade following traditional mala-making methods. Every mala bead is strung and as each individual knot is tied locking the mala bead in place while a mantra is recited to bring love and goodwill to the new owner. This takes more time, and we are not able to make them at the same cost of a machine, we know that a Mala of Merit means more the moment you put it on and feel our love and energy that comes with it that no machine made mala can replicate.

    Every part of your mala was selected not based on cost but by the impact on the environment and lives of those who helped make it in mind first and foremost. Our mala parts are sourced from multiple locations around the world. With each partner we work with that provides parts of the mala we have done everything within our power to ensure that all parts of your mala came from a reputable manufacturer that meets our high standards of ethics.

    Note-With gemstones unfortunately we are not able to trace them back all the way to the mines and verify this….we spent hours trying, and to be honest almost anyone who says they have may be stretching the truth, it’s just not possible as beads will come from separate mines around the world.

    Absolutely!!! The moment you partner with us and purchase a Mala of Merit, you begin helping others. We utilize the "Shop for Good" application. It automatically donates a portion from your purchase made on our store directly to the “Shop for Good” app the moment you pay.

    We have elected to donate all proceeds to The Tibet Fund which is a 301c Non-Profit. If you would like to learn more about The Tibet Fund, click HERE.

    We are a small company and as we grow with your help the donation will assist in providing Tibetan communities with solutions to poverty, hunger, education, cultural preservation, and other basic needs.

    Good job, look at you helping others!

    Our Perfect Moment Guarantee-

    We believe in helping anyone we can, and your mala is something you love and connect with that empowers you to improve with the hopes that you will continue to pay it forward and help those around you improve.

    We all have ordered things online, get super excited like a kid at their birthday party, open the box and it’s not even close to what we expected, it looks nothing like what you purchased, doesn’t fit, or was not even close to being anything resembling quality.
