Dreaming of the Sea: Ocean Mala
This mala is inspired by the clear blue waters of Baldwin Beach, Maui.
Blue jasper is known as the stone of tranquility and emotional healing because it promotes inner peace and helps quiet mental chatter during meditation. Blue aventurine enhances communication and self-expression. It opens the throat chakra and encourages authentic speaking. This calming crystal helps release old patterns of negative thinking while promoting mental clarity. White jade is revered as a stone of purity and wisdom that brings harmony to the mind, body, and spirit. This protective stone filters out distractions and negative influences, creating a serene space for meditation and balance.
The "Dreaming of the Sea" pendant serves as the focal point, and the translucent blue star beads represent starfish. Perfect for daily meditation, prayer, or a statement necklace that invokes the sea.
For the practice: Mala japa helps focus your attention by giving your hands and mind one specific task to concentrate on. The mala works like circumambulating around a sacred place, but made accessible for daily practice - your fingers make a circle around the beads. Pay attention to each bead like you would notice each step while circumambulating a sacred place. Stay aware of your breath, mantra, and prayer intention.
