Join us for a four-hour workshop where you’ll mindfully knot your own mālā meditation garland. Rooted in the wisdom of the current season, this gathering explores how to create with intention, embrace the sacred rhythm of letting go, and how to meditate with your beads.
Together, we will reflect on how the mālā is more than a string of beads—it is a sacred circle that mirrors the natural cycles of life, death, and rebirth. As we craft our own mālā meditation beads, we’ll explore the meaning behind its form and rhythm: how each bead can represent a moment in time, a breath, or a step along the path of letting go and returning.
We’ll look at the guru bead—the large, anchoring bead—as a symbol of the soul, the source, or stillness beyond life and death. The act of circling the mālā in meditation becomes a practice of honoring the ongoing cycle of beginnings and endings—a spiritual reminder that all things rise, fall, and return.
Through reflection, gentle discussion, and hands-on creation, we’ll learn how the mala can become a ritual tool for staying present with impermanence, for grieving and releasing, and for finding peace in the endless turning of the wheel.

October Beads : 8mm Golden Tigers Eye
Golden Tiger’s Eye is a powerful stone to work with in the season of autumn, when nature begins to turn inward, release, and prepare for stillness. Spiritually, it offers grounding, clarity, and courage - qualities that support the inward journey and the transition as we begin to walk the middle path as light gives way to shadow. As you slow down in autumn and tune into subtle shifts within and around you, Tiger’s eye can act as a guide, helping you trust what you feel and see beneath the surface.
