ΑΞΔ Mala Workshop
The primary beads we will be using for this session are:
- Sodalite (dark blue): It brings order and calmness to the mind. Encourages objectivity, truth, and intuition, along with verbalisation of feelings. It brings emotional balance and calms panic.
- Larimar Quartz (light blue): Overflowing with such calming energy. Its cooling water like shades and the energy of flow, give it the ability to wash away anxious thoughts. Strongly aids the power of communication.
- Honey Calcite (yellow): Increases feelings of self-worth, confidence, courage, and assists to overcome obstacles. It is helpful for learning of all types and developing skills.
- Rose Quartz (pink): Is a healing crystal of unconditional love. It supports emotional and relationship healing. It inspires compassion.
