Best Sun Salutations Mala

Sun Salutations Mala. According to yogic tradition, there are 108 pithas, or sacred sites, throughout India. And there are also 108 Upanishads and 108 marma points or sacred places of the body. And yes, one can offer a yoga mala of 108 Sun Salutations. This is the Sun Salutations Mala & Sunstone is just so perfect to highlight its beauty. This mala is made in the Tibetan style, where markers are placed after the 27th positions to give you a gentle reminder of where you are in your meditation practice. I finished the mala very simply with a faceted black Onyx guru, a beautiful alternative for those that prefer less embellishment.
The Sun Salutations Mala is a hand knotted mala with 100% silk cord. It has a total of 108 - 8mm sunstone, sandalwood and lava rock beads, finished best off with a faceted black onyx guru bead.
The beads used in this mala are:
Sandalwood - its scent is both excellent for staying present during meditation and also to bring emotional balance.
Lava Rock - a grounding stone that strengthens ones connections to Mother Earth
Sunstone - Metaphysically, Sunstone is known for its powerful connection to the light and power of the sun. Sunstone brings light to all situations, and carrying a piece around with you can help your personal power to "shine".
Black Onyx Guru - Black Onyx properties overall are balancing yin/yang energy, courage, protection, healing and calming. It strengthens the body's connection to the earth.
