Mala / elastic bracelet, labradorite with OM

Mala
A mala is originally a Hindu and Buddhist tool for prayer and meditation. It is used to count mantras during meditation. A mantra is a collection of words, often Sanskrit, that is repeated several times, traditionally 108. While repeating it, you have to focus on the meaning and vibration of the words, possibly combined with the accompanying visualization. By training in a meditation practice like this, your thoughts rest and your body relaxes.
