2:00 PM to 4:00 PM

In this 2hr workshop you will learn about the different properties of prayer beads and stones and how to create a mala that is special and unique to you. You don't need to be an expert jeweler to create your own mala, it is very simple but does require some focus and patience...kinda like meditation. As you make your mala you can weave in intention and positive energy, as malas are known for their energetic powers of healing. Great as a gift for yourself or for someone special! At the end of the workshop we will explore how to use the mala for meditation and then take 15 min for a silent meditation.

What to bring

• 108 beads: you can choose any type of stone, seeds, wood, etc for the beads


• Small spacer beads, accent beads, or pendants are also a great addition to your mala


• Beads can be purchased at the studio before we start the workshop (start at 27 cents each) or at any local bead shop


• Tray or container lid as workspace to place your beads


• Cushion to sit on (some chairs will be provided)


• Cords and materials for closing the mala will be provided
