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 to make us feel good.
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.
The Throat Chakra, or Viśuddha, is the fifth chakra and it is the first of the higher or spiritual chakras on the "chakra ladder". This chakra is located in the region of neck and shoulders and its color is blue.
The gift of this chakra is accepting your originality, expressing your authentic voice and speaking your truth.
Are you holding back something that needs to be said? Perhaps the truth about a certain matter needs to be spoken. Honesty is very important at this time, so have the courage to speak up with grace. When your words come from a loving and compassionate place, they have the power to heal or improve a situation.
