Dear Yoga Community, There is still room to join a free yoga workshop. We will be learning about mala meditation, making beaded malas, and exploring this tool for meditation. No experience necessary. I will provide all the materials you need. This is an in-person only workshop! APRIL 15TH ~~ 7:00-8:15 P.M. ESSENCE OF SELF 52 SKYLINE DRIVE RINGWOOD, NJ NO WEEKLY YOGA CLASS APRIL 22ND! Malas are spiritual objects that contain 108 beads and a special bead or “guru” bead. The number 108 is represented from ancient Vedic teachings since there are 108 principal astral channels leading from the heart in the subtle body out to the rest of the blood veins. Saying a mantra 108 times sends energy into each of the channels. Malas are used for meditation.
Mantras, or repetitive words or phrases, are repeated with each bead to aid in meditation. Meditation is an active process that builds awareness of the witness within each of us. Using malas as a tool facilitates a balance between soft presence without sleeping on the one hand, or being too forceful or hyper-alert on the other.
