“Oh my, that’s gorgeous!” exclaimed my friend when she saw this mala courtesy of Jewels of Saraswati. I couldn’t agree more.
A mala is a set of beads used during meditation or chanting in order to keep count of mantra recitation. They can be made of 19, 21, 27, 54 or 108 beads long. Jewels of Saraswati uses semi-precious stones to create one of a kind malas which you can custom order/create to your own tastes and preferences. Great care is taken with each piece produced and the high quality of craftsmanship is immediately evident. The entire range of jewelry, which includes malas, necklaces, bracelets, earrings and purse charms, is inspired by yoga to provide you with something special for your life and yoga practice.
copper & czech glass earrings
Jewels of Saraswati has generously donated a 27 bead hand-knotted chakra mala with a pewter peace charm to one lucky winner. All of the 7 chakras are represented by black obsidian, red jasper, aragonite, rose quartz, blue aventurine, rainbow fluorite and crystal quartz (see photo above). Enjoy the flowing, healing energy that comes from the beauty and usefulness of this mala. In addition, a second place winner will receive a pair of stunning copper and czech glass earrings.
Both of these would make ideal gifts for a special yogi this holiday season but, if you’re like me you’ll have to order more as all your friends will be requesting them. Check out Jewels of Saraswati’s entire range of stunning products on their Estsy shop.

“I don’t do yoga, yoga does me!”
I love what Ellen DeGeneres once said, “I was in yoga the other day. I was in full lotus position. My chakras were all aligned. My mind is cleared of all clatter and I’m looking out of my third eye and everything that I’m supposed to be doing. It’s amazing what comes up, when you sit in that silence. “Mama keeps whites bright like the sunlight, Mama’s got the magic of Clorox 2.” Reminds me how nonsense can so easily be engrained in our minds, but so difficult to let go of : )
Life is a gift and your body is a wrapping paper, by practicing yoga you not just enlighten your soul but also helps you maintain your wrapping paper.

My favorite yoga quote is “Yoga teaches us to cure what need not be endured and endure what cannot be cured.”
You are your own teacher, You are responsible for your own experience.
99% practice and 1% skill – funny how hard getting to that parctice can be!
The yoga mat is a good place to turn when talk therapy and antidepressants aren’t enough.
