Shift and Persist Mala

Stones: Bloodstone
Stone size: 8mm or 6mm
Item is made to order.

Our malas are tools for Japa Meditation. They contain 108 stones, which grants you 108 chances to speak a mantra or intention out loud. There is a 109th stone - the guru bead - which is a tactile reminder of when to start and stop your meditation. Since each mala is handcrafted to order, there is a chance that a slightly different focal stone (larger stone in the middle of the mala) will be used. Any changes will be communicated, and will await your approval prior to creation.

Metaphysical properties:

Bloodstone has grounding and protective elements which makes it a suitable substitution for the black coloured stones that are typically used for these intentions. Its links to the lower chakras can grant an increase in courage, motivation, and creative energies. And it can open up a level of persistence for those who have a tendency to give up far too quickly.

It also has a connection to the heart charka which is why it is used by some for healing, restorative, and rejuvenating purposes.

It has a masculine vibe (meaning: an action-oriented energy that we all have access to) and is often regarded as an unblocker. So if we are feeling stuck, regular meditation with bloodstone can help clear our paths as we move forward.
