Join Kate for an afternoon of fun and mala making.
We will start with a brief introduction to malas, their history, and their significance in various spiritual traditions. You will learn about the different types of beads and their meanings, and how to select beads that align with your intentions and needs. We will go over the different parts of a mala, including the guru bead and different design options. Once you have picked out your beads, you’ll design and make your own 108 mala, and you can choose to have it fitted to your wrist. You will then learn how to use your mala to count mantras or affirmations, and how to incorporate mindfulness and breathwork into your meditation practice.
All mala making materials are included in the price of the workshop, and you can take your mala home with you.
