What's New at Mala and Mantra: Mindful Malas, Meditation Kits + More
As a mala bead brand, mindfulness and meditation are at the core of everything we do at Mala and Mantra. But we wanted to start the year on an especially mindful note in 2018, with a bunch of new mindfulness-focused products and features that we’re excited to share with you this month.
Up first: our brand new #bemindful Collection! As part of our Crafted for a Cause program—which gives back to causes and organizations that are close to our heart—we teamed up with The Center for Mindfulness at UC San Diego Health to create a capsule collection of pieces designed to help you live a more mindful life. Made with sustainable blackwood and robles wood beads, as well as a trio of semi-precious gemstones—angelite to increase awareness, tiger’s eye to focus the mind and prehnite to ease meditation—the #bemindful Collection is designed to help you stay aware and grounded in the present moment. Even better, for every piece sold from the collection, we’ll donate $5 to The Center for Mindfulness to support mindfulness research and community outreach. Learn more about the collection + The Center for Mindfulness here.
We’re also incredibly excited to introduce a product that we’ve been working on for quite some time now—and one that’s a first for Mala and Mantra: Mindful Meditation Kits! These kits are sort of like Meditation 101 in a box, and come with everything you need to get started with your meditation practice. Each beautifully packaged box includes a 108-bead mala necklace, an essential oil scented candle from Pure Plant Home, Frankincense essential oil from Body Bliss, an assorted crystal, a mini-Buddha incense holder and access to an online guided meditation from our Mindful Meditation Master, Micole Noble. Shop the kit here, and keep an eye out throughout the year as we roll out more meditation + mindfulness tools like it!
Speaking of meditation, we’ve also introduced a few new pieces of content to help deepen your meditation practice and teach you all about mindfulness + meditation. This includes our Monthly Mindfulness Journal, a downloadable journal that helps you keep track of all the ways you’re mindful throughout the month, with prompts that help you think more deeply about mindfulness + meditation. Get access to your very own journal when you sign up for Mala and Mantra emails here.
And then there’s the Malas + Meditation 101 section on our website, your new go-to spot for learning all the basics about malas, meditation, mindfulness + more. We’ll be updating it every few weeks with new content, including guided meditations from some of our most mindful friends + meditation teachers. Take a peek at the first few articles now, and check back soon for more mindful content.
Wishing you a mindful New Year!
