Crystal Malas
Crystal malas have great significance in spiritual and mindful practices. They have been around for over 3,000 years, and their origin traces back to India. Their practice is deeply rooted in Hinduism and Buddhism, but many individuals use them without religious affiliation.
There are various types of mala crystals, including quartz mala and clear quartz mala.
Every mala necklace has 108 crystal mala beads. The largest bead at the center is called the guru and features a tassel, making it easier to identify. The guru holds the energy produced during practice. For students, it also represents and pays homage to the guru who passed the mala down to them.
Malas are popularly used in meditation. But they are also a great addition to any crystal jewelry collection because they can be worn around the neck and wrist.
Crystal beads are preferable over other materials because they have high-vibrational energy and emanate from Mother Earth. They also carry subtle yet potent healing frequencies that can:
- Relieve stress and anxiety
- Harmonize your thoughts
- Re-energize the body and uplift a depleted spirit
