Unakite Mala Beads (108 yoga beads)

Each mala is hand knotted with care, featuring 108 beads (crystals or stones) and a matching tassel. I source rustic, natural beads in a variety of styles and designs so every mala feels personal and unique.
 
I’ve also been a yoga teacher for 12 years, and I bring the same sense of mindfulness and presence from my teaching into how I create these mala beads.
 
Stone meaning
Unakite is known as a stone of harmony and healing. With its mix of green and pink tones, it is believed to balance emotions, nurture the heart, and encourage patience and compassion. Often called a stone of vision, it is also thought to support insight and spiritual growth.
 
How I use my mala
I set an intention, mantra, or breath count (108). Holding the mala in my right hand over the middle finger, I use my thumb to move one bead per breath or mantra, starting next to the guru bead. When I reach the guru bead again, I pause and reverse direction rather than crossing over.
 
How it is worn
This mala is not adjustable and does not have a clasp. It is typically worn as a long necklace resting over the chest, with the guru bead and tassel near the heart. It can also be wrapped around the wrists several times.
