DRAGON

In China, the dragon and the phoenix are symbolized auspiciousness. The dragon is the fifth animal in the Chinese zodiac. They traditionally symbolize potent and auspicious powers, particularly control over water, rainfall, typhoons, and floods. In Chinese culture, the dragon represents good luck, strength, health, and also the male element Yang. In systematized mythology, the dragon is considered male and is paired with the phoenix (female); together the two creatures symbolize marital harmony. The dragon works as a mirror to the phoenix, symbolizing masculine energy, strength, and protection.

Silver

Silver has relatively stable chemical properties and is not easy to deteriorate. At the same time, silver also has certain effects on the human body. Silver is one of the seven treasures of Buddhism. Wearing silver jewelry can protect you from evil spirits. Silver can sterilize and reduce inflammation, detoxify and maintain health, and prolong life. Long-term use can accelerate metabolism and enhance resistance.

    What Are Mala Beads?

    Mala beads have been around for thousands of years, created in India over 3,000 years ago. They are rooted in Hinduism and Buddhism and are meant to help you focus your mind during meditation. 

    Buddhist prayer beads or malas are a traditional tool used to count the number of times a mantra is recited, breaths while meditating, counting prostrations, or the repetitions of a buddha's name. They are similar to other forms of prayer beads used in various world religions and therefore the term "Buddhist rosary" also appears.

    Malas are used for keeping count while reciting, chanting, or mentally repeating a mantra or the name or names of a deity. This sādhanā (practice) is known in Sanskrit as japa. Malas are typically made with 18, 27, 54 or 108 beads.

    In Tibetan Buddhism, malas of 108 beads are used. Some practitioners use malas of 21 or 28 beads for doing prostrations. In Tibetan Buddhism, malas are mainly used to count mantras.

    Pros of Mala Beads for Your Mental Health

    • Stress reduction

      Studies have shown that regular meditation eases anxiety and depression symptoms. Meditation and yoga can also help reduce pain, which may be a cause of psychological problems. 

    • Physical health benefits

      Regular meditation and yoga can also help your physical health by reducing your blood pressure, heart rate, and even cholesterol. Mindful meditation improves blood flow to your brain, which helps it work better and regulate bodily functions.

    • Less need for medications

      Using mala beads in yoga and meditation can reduce your need for medications as you get older. Working on your mental and physical health as you age may prevent symptoms of future conditions. 

    • Cognitive benefits

      Practicing effective meditation is good for cognition. Some studies have shown that meditation improves focus and memory. It also can help delay cognitive decline and dementia as you get older.

    How do I use my mala?

    Malas are used to count mantras (spoken intentions). Move through the beads one at a time, using your thumb to turn each bead, as you repeat apersonal ortraditional mantra. Stop when you reach the guru bead (the larger bead dangling from the top), this means it is time to reflect. Come out ofmeditation gently, and do notworry about feeling “perfect” the first few times you practice.

    Do I use my left hand or my right hand?

    The “correct” hand varies from tradition to tradition. If just starting out, it is probably best to begin with whichever hand feels most natural for you. Whenmoving thebeads through your fingers, many people choose to use the thumb and the middle finger, as the pointer finger represents the “I” or the ego,and should therefore beavoided.

    Versatile Applications

    Symbolizes joy, peace, protection, focus, healing, wisdom, wealth, and good health

    Unisex design can be worn as a multi-layer anklet, necklace, or wrist mala bracelet for men, women, and teens

    Balance auras, cure illness, and shield against stress, worry, anxiety, or depression

    Hold during yoga, meditation, mantra chanting, Buddhist offerings, or display as altar decoration supplies

    Meditating With A Mala

    Using a meditation mala requires no prior knowledge of traditions, prayers or rituals. All you need is a clear place to sit and about 10-15 minutes ofuninterrupted time.Start with the mala in your left hand, with index finger and thumb lightly grasping the bead next to the Guru Bead (the larger bead atthe top of the chain). Breathedeeply several times until you feel relaxed. Then, begin.

    Move the beads through your fingertips, one-by-one, breathing deeply and slowly with each movement. This smooth sequence transmits informationfrom the musclesto the brain, and relaxes the central nervous system by initiating a steady, repetitive physical motion (similar to the idea of squeezinga stress ball).

    With each new bead you should be repeating a chosen mantra, prayer or intention. The mantra can be anything- some practitioners use “Om,” whileothers choose“peace” or “love”- and it can be spoken, whispered or hummed. Each repetition generates positive forward momentum and strengthensmental focus. If a stray thoughtdistracts you, return to the bead where you lost concentration and start again. Meditation is not a race; there is no finishline. Meditation is a process of slow healing, ofbringing a sense of infinite peace to the heart and mind.

    Keep the beads moving. When you reach the Guru Bead again, you will have completed a full cycle. Come out of meditation gently by sitting in silencefor somemoments. Take deep breaths, stand and return to your normal activities. Remember, it takes time and practice for the mind to be able toeffectively slow down andfocus. Do not be discouraged if you don’t feel “perfect” the first time you meditate.

    • Deborah Rose

      I got mala for my trip to the hospital for a huge surgery to help keep my mind from wandering during the recovery time, these helped me greatly do this the quality of the beads is really nice the string is an elastic and gives plenty of stretch to wear as a bracelet or as a necklace, smooth and easy to move through your hands would purchase again!

    • Jerome Bridgelal

      I ama a firm believer that I truly “own” nothing in the world nor do I want to. When I wear mala it reminds me of my path of cohesion with everything around me. When I encounter someone who notices and is drawn to these, I give them to that person. I then order more. They are priced right and a beautiful way to wear your peace and pass it on when another person needs them.

    • Jordan S.

      I used to spend a lot of time with mantra, particularly chanting ram or Hare Krishna, and I needed a durable mala that moves easy in the hand. Some malas seem to be designed as more of a fashion accessory rather than for practical use. This one is super practical, the elastic keeps the beads tight and close, and the beads are a good size, moves through the fingers easily, and the next bead is always within reach. Durable and holds up well, hours of chanting has passed on this thing.

    • Sylvia Flewelling

      My therapist wanted me to start using mala beads as a way of handling stress and anxiety. I had no idea what type to get- I wanted them to be simple in appearance and durable. So I decided to get wooden ones. They are also very pretty. My wrists are too skinny to wear these as a bracelet, but I have worn them as a necklace around my neck and they look very pretty and I received compliments (the point of mala beads is to be able to carry them easily with you which is why they are often worn as jewelry). I recommend them as an inexpensive, attractive and thoroughly usable set of mala beads.
