I can re create any of these— tweaked to your own intentions, or something completely custom, DM to start the journey of your own. . . #malabeads #malaartist #malanecklace #healingcrystals #healingjewelry #yogini #yogajewelry  #meditation #meditate #meditationjewelry #108malabeads #japamala #reikienergy #healingenergy #meditationmala  #meditationbeads #bohojewelry #mala #bohofashion #bohostyle #malamaker #108beads #108mala #yogabeads #yogajourney #chakrabalancing  #chakrajewelry #yogafashion #tasselnecklace #yogaeverydamnday

  I made this mala for myself, for some needed self love- but I can re-create her, or any other one in my over at my @wovenheartmalas feed. DM me for info. . I AM A GODDESS MALA I knotted this mala last night, within the energy of the Cancer New Moon. It’s affirmation is **I AM ENOUGH. I AM BEAUTIFUL. I MOVE WITH CONFIDENCE & COURAGE AND AM AN ACTIVE CREATOR OF MY LIFE** The intentions of this mala are full of self love, forgiveness, confidence, acceptance, compassion worth and trust. It brings balance, encourages versatility, stimulates imagination and transforms ideas into action, while also reminding us to slow down and celebrate life. I used matte porcelain jasper, pink zebra jasper, grey picture jasper, mookaite jasper (nuggets, start cut & matte) rose quartz (star cut, faceted & round) & faceted garnet. Knotted in the Tibetan style, there are rose quartz faceted nuggets after each 27th bead. The guru is raw rose quartz. Using raw rose quartz, along with the faceted reminds us that rough edges can be beautiful too. Knotted on silk cord, with a Reiki meditation, and a handmade silk tassel This mala is available for custom order. DM me for one like this, or to design one of your own intentions. . #malabeads #malaartist #malanecklace #loveyourself #healingcrystals #healingjewelry #yogini #yogajewelry  #meditation #meditate #meditationjewelry #108malabeads #japamala #reikienergy #healingenergy #meditationmala  #meditationbeads #bohojewelry #mala #bohofashion #bohostyle #malamaker #loveyourbody #108beads #108mala #yogabeads #bodypositive #yogafashion #tasselnecklace #yogaeverydamnday
