The variations are endless, the stock always changing, and new material always added to the offerings.

We have an "Order Form" which helps to clarify the custom order process and we respond to every email M-F 9a-5p PST.

Once we have completed the order we send you a proof picture and only after you have confirmed the image do we ship the finished product.

We stand behind our product and RESTRING FOR LIFE should the cord ever break. OUR SIGNATURE is that each mala has their own slip knot that can be adjusted so that you can space the beads apart in any length you wish!

  • So Ham

    Among all the types of pranayama, the natural one is So'Ham. It is the greatest centering technique; through it comes the complete attainment of purnananda, perfect bliss.
    Identification with unity arises by reflecting on the supreme state by merging into one's own Self with the awareness "I am That." Having this recognition of the Self is the basis for right identification.

  • Hum Sa on wrist mala

    I am often asked for a mantra or direction for meditation and offer this mantra as there is no specific path associated with it.
    You recite HUM on the inhale and SA on the exhale. Meaning "I am that" and So Hum means (That I am).
    The reason for reciting this is to remind yourself that this sounds exists within when one inhales and exhales and eventually at the depths of your silence you will hear the sound repeated.
    Pay close attention to the space between breaths as this is where knowledge and wisdom of the infinite arises.
    Don't breath in a contrived way, let the breath flow and follow it as it becomes long or short. The space between breaths will also become longer.
