FEELING DRAWN TO A MALA
You might have seen a mala that you feel drawn to, perhaps for no particular reason. If this is your case, most often the mala has called on you - a mala that you might need at this specific time of your life. Without questioning the why, embrace it and allow yourself to be guided by your heart, that which exactly knows what you need at this moment.
THE COLORS OF THE MALA AND THE CHAKRAS
Color plays a big part of our overall wellness, not to mention the Buddhist teachings of bodily resonance associated with our chakras, the energy points throughout our body. Resonating with specific colors might be your body indicating where it needs to balance, which chakra needs a little bit more attention and so on.
