As the name EAT.PRAY.MOVE suggests, PRAYing and meditating is one of the fundamental aspects of the yogic experience we want to promote on our retreats, and throughout life in general. Mala beads are a great tool for helping one focus, meditate, be still, and stay present.
Here's a little snippet from the Tiny Devotions site:
"Our Tiny Devotions mala beads are perfect for beginnings and endings - goals, struggles, worries, dreams, intentions and prayers.
Mala beads transcend cultures and religions and can be found in some form in nearly every tradition around the world. The word bead, historically coming from the word "prayer" or "to pray".
These sacred and beautiful beads help us live in the moment - staying present to the beauty of life.
We combine rudraksha seeds with semi precious crystals and pearls to create beautiful designer malas that each have their own specific intention. Rudraksha seeds are known as the eyes or tears of Shiva - and are worn for their protective and sacred qualities."
So...are you ready to get a set of these designer Mala Beads for yourself?

ReplyDeleteThis so reminds of Eat,Pray, Love. My answer would be Italy! Where else can you learn the language of love, meditate with the lovely smell of garlic and love in the air!? Awwww I can see it now in my mind!
This is wonderful! I would love to win mala beads to assist me in deepening my spiritual practice. I would love to go to Italy or Greece. They are beautiful places with rich history and culture.

I would love to use my mala beads in Greece. It's such a clean, quiet, beautiful country- definitely a place to find yourself. A place not necessarily to escape to, but to refocus your time, your goals, and your energy. It would be a place to reassure yourself of your own beauty and worth, and to remind you of the beauty of your everyday life at home. One of the oldest established countries, being among such history would be a gentle reminder of my place in the world and in my own life. Yes, I would definitely choose to meditate in Greece...

I would like to retreat to GREECE! It seems so peaceful and cool!

These malas are so beautiful! I would love to have them along for the Ischia, Italy retreat because I have always wanted to go to Italy, would love the chance to deepen my practice in a peaceful place, and maybe see a vineyard or two! :)

Algiers...that is where I would want to use my mala....your Malas are exquisite
ReplyDeleteI had never heard of Ischia until now, and it sounds like the most amazing place to visit. I close my eyes, and can feel what an amazing place it must be.

Oh what a beautiful giveaway! I would want to return to the magical town of Kas, Turkey. (That "s" should have a little squiggle underneath, but I don't know how to make that show up.) My husband and I spent a few days there this spring, and now I dream of going back. It would be made even better with a little Tiny Devotions meditation action.

Australia would be a loverly place to have a yoga retreat. Cheers! arahminta at gmail dot com
ReplyDeleteI would love to win mala beads. I have coveted the pictures on your blogsite for a very long time.
ReplyDeleteI am saving my coins with every intention of buying a gorgeous necklace one day.
I have dreamed of visiting Majorca for many years. I had a friend one who visited there with her family. The way she described it was breathtaking. I long to see it myself. Firsthand.
thanks!

Italy.
ReplyDeleteI would absolutely relish in the opportunity to visit the Sea of Crete and use my mala. I have never been to the Sea of Crete, but being an island in the middle of the Mediterranean, I can only imagine all that it has to offer. Not only would this magical getaway help me find balance in my life and in my practice, but it would also give me the chance to travel and experience a foreign place in a whole new light. Also, having my own mala beads is a dream come true...they are positively an item that would add so much to my practice. Thank you and Namaste ♥
ReplyDeletehayleybkatz@gmail.com
I have always wanted to visit the Greek Islands. I think that would be the perfect place to retreat and view the world from a different perspective and use my mala beads there.
