Hand-knotted 108-bead mala strung with deep blue sodalite and marked at three intervals by earthy jasper beads. Sodalite is linked with clarity and self-trust, while jasper adds a grounding note. Held in the hand during seated meditation, the beads are moved one at a time to count a mantra or a breath.

Meaning & Intention

Sodalite has long been called the stone of the mind. Its indigo depths, streaked with white, are said to mirror the clarity that surfaces when mental noise begins to settle.

The jasper markers offer a grounding counterweight — a steady, earth-tied presence often described as patient and nourishing, well suited to a practice built on returning to the same still point.

At 108 beads, this mala follows one of the oldest structures in contemplative practice, a number held sacred across yogic and Buddhist traditions. Each bead marks a single mantra, breath, or repetition.

Moved through one bead at a time, the strand anchors attention to one point of focus, whether that is a mantra, a breath count, or silence itself.

Questions & Guidance

How do I use a mala for meditation?

Hold it in one hand and use your thumb to move from bead to bead, reciting a mantra or counting a breath on each one, until you complete a full circuit back to the guru bead.

What does the guru bead signify?

The guru bead marks the start and end of the 108-bead cycle. It is traditionally not counted; instead, you pause there to honor the completion of a round before turning back or setting the mala down.

Can I display it outside of practice?

The mala is made for meditation rather than daily wear, but it can be draped or set near your practice space and picked up when you sit down to meditate.
