These are truly powerful meditation tools, and help you get into the mood of meditation. They’re fantastic to use when you need to center yourself or create an intention.

Mala

Malas are one of the most useful things you can have when you regularly meditate. As we meditate, we count how many times we have recited a mantra. Malas come in varying sizes and there is a wide variety of materials to choose from. Many people prefer gemstone malas while still others use more traditional materials, like sandalwood.

So, why is a mala such an important meditation tool?

First off, it reminds you to meditate. But more importantly, it’s just a great way to deepen your meditations. By tracking the mantras you’ve repeated with your hand, you can free your mind to concentrate.

And last but not least, if you get a gemstone mala, it brings healing vibrations.
