After the past few years we've had, we're all in need of a little grounding. With that in mind, this masterclass will be focused on working with Root Chakra gemstones. When choosing your gemstone, be sure to read the description and see what resonates with you the most. More than one kit can be purchased, but we will only have time to knot one mala during the masterclass.
In this calm and relaxing 3 hour workshop you will learn how to string together Mala Beads while infusing each knot with positive and healing energy. Setting an intention with every bead strung. We will also make our own tassels from scratch and learn how to attach them securely to your Mala. We will also chant, share our stories, and build community together, breathing all of that beauty, strength, and healing into our malas.
Malas have been used throughout time to support prayer and meditation practices, while symbolizing our connection to higher consciousness and spiritual oneness. Malas are also beautiful and worn for energetic protection, attraction and manifestation, and to make us feel good.
