**FREE shipping in the USA

This powerful and beautiful 108-bead mala necklace contains everything you need to support the three basic tenets of the Namaste Experience: Only Love, Only God, Only Now!

Not only does the mala have the 3-Onlies medallion, but the 3 types of gemstone beads were specificallyincorporated to support EACH of the 3 principles for their particular energetic properties. (See below)

Above the 3-Onlies medallion hangs a double pointed quartz crystal, which serves as an amplifier to all the other stones. Two small amethyst rondelles sit above and below.

The beads are strung on natural hemp cording and hand knotted between each, except for the sandalwood section where tiny glass beads take the place of knots.

This mala can be worn as a necklace but it's quite long - long enough to be worn doubled up as shown in the photos.

The mala comes with its own lovely handmade linen bag!

Mala Length (circle of beads): 44 inches

Quartz point plus medallion: 3.5 inches

ABOUT THE GEMSTONES

Only LOVE = Morganite

Morganite (a form of beryl often appearing in soft shades of pink and peach) is a heart chakra stone described as the Crystal of Divine Love - always ready to take us by the hand and lead us into the light. Morganite reminds us that we are all connected and separateness is an illusion. This lovely stone helps lower the veil between ourselves and Spirit, allowing for better access to spiritual guidance at the emotional level. Morganite goes straight to those places where the heart needs to heal, filling us with divine love and compassion.

Only GOD = Cacoxenite

Cacoxenite is referred to as the “stone of ascension” because it is an extremely powerful stone for awakening the chakras and enhancing balance, harmony, and spiritual attunement. This special stone fosters our connection with the angels, divine masters, and spirit guides - supporting deep healing and regeneration on all levels. Cacoxenite is even commonly used during world meditations due to its extremely high vibrational energy that support universal healing. It is a primary component of the Super Seven crystal, therefore it works well with smokey quartz, clear quartz, amethyst, Goethite, and lepidocrocite with rutile.

Only NOW = Smoky Quartz

Smoky quartz is a powerful grounding stone that can help us connect with the present moment. It works on the root chakra to help anchor us - help us stay rooted in the NOW!

A Little About Malas

A mala is a string of beads used traditionally to count mantras (prayers) while meditating. One mantra is recited as your finger moves along each bead.

Mala beads can also be worn as a necklace to align one with their spiritual journey.

The word "mala" is the Sanskrit word for “garland.” Interestingly, the word “bead” comes from the Anglo-Saxon word “bede” - which translates to “prayer”!

Malas traditionally have 108 beads because 108 is a sacred number in numerous world cultures and traditions, including Hinduism and Buddhism.

In Hinduism, 108 represents the wholeness of the universe. In Buddhism, there are 108 mortal desires that impede enlightenment. Yogis practice a sequence of 108 Sun Salutations. There is even profound astronomical significance to the number 108!

There are also mala bead variations such as bracelets that may have 27 or 54 beads, or any multiple of 9.

In 108 bead mala necklaces, "marker" beads are added to the 108 to help one keep track of the count during prayers, as well as acting as a nice visual break in the bead pattern. They are often placed after bead numbers 27, 54, and 81.

The 109th bead is known as the “guru” bead (aka “meru” bead or “mountain” bead). The guru bead represents our greatest teacher and holds our prayers and intentions.

Mala necklaces are often finished with a tassel, which hangs below the guru bead. The tassel represents our connection to spirit. Alternately, they may be finished with a talisman or amulet.

When using a mala for meditation, start by holding your guru bead and setting your intention. Then say your mantras (or focus on your breath/pranayama) as you pass each bead along between your fingers. When you return to your guru bead, finish your practice by expressing gratitude to your teacher!

What's So Special About Shungite?

Shungite's Benefits Relate to Shungite's Properties

Shungite helps protect the wearer from the effects of manmade electromagnetic radiation. Its unique molecular carbon structure transforms them into frequencies that are biologically harmless - frequencies that more closely resemble those produced by the earth herself. Many people who are electrosensitive report feeling better when wearing shungite or having it nearby. Shungite is also said to block negative energy and act as a detoxifier. Read about the other gemstone properties here!

FAQ

What's the big deal about EMFs?

The latest research on EMFs suggests they can produce a boatload of nasty effects on our health, including brain and heart tumors, cardiac arrhythmias, reproductive problems, hormone disruption - and the list goes on. You can read more about this here.

Where do you get your shungite, and how do you assure quality?

I have spent a great deal of time identifying high quality, reliable sources both in the US and Russia, where shungite is mined. When I find a good supplier, I make every effort to nurture that relationship. Service is everything! I also test every batch of shungite I receive for authenticity. For more about this, see my YouTube video.

What type of shungite do you use for your products?

This is probably my most frequently asked question!

The majority of my products are made from black shungite. Black shungite (type 2) is far more suitable for jewelry and accessories because it can be shaped, tumbled, drilled, and polished into forms (beads, pendants, spheres, pyramids, and so on). Black shungite (type 2) contains about 50 to 70 percent carbon, with the remaining 30 to 50 percent being a mixture of a wide variety of different elements.

Elite (noble) shungite, aka "type 1," is a completely different form. Although it's stronger in terms of EMFs, it is very crumbly and friable. Therefore, elite is best used in its raw form for making shungite water, or as loose pebbles in a bowl or as a beautiful solid nugget. Elite shungite is 90 to 98 percent pure carbon and therefore has the highest concentration of fullerenes - the special molecules that give shungite its unique properties. Elite is much more expensive because of its rarity, representing the top 1 percent of all shungite mined.

In my store, unless a listing specifies "elite shungite," it is black shungite.

There is one more type of shungite that I don't usually carry due to its extreme rarity - Petrovsky Shungite. Petrovsky dates back to the time of Peter the Great and consists of 70 to 80 percent carbon, yet it can still withstand grinding and shaping for beads, pendants, and sculptures.

How do I select shungite for my home?

Each shungite piece has a range of effects based on its size and shape, so different pieces can be used for different rooms based on the size and type of the room. For example, pyramids are recommended in rooms where you want to be awake and alert, such as an office, den or living room. Spheres have a softer energy that is more calming, so they are more suitable for a bedroom or nursery. For more about this, as well as information about the range of effects, refer to my Shungite Recommendations post.

Ultimately, when selecting shungite - be it jewelry, a gift, or a shungite garden - go with your gut. Use your intuition. What piece calls to you? What do you feel drawn to? We are energetic beings, and thoughts and feelings are energy. We just have to listen.

My EMF meter shows NO difference with shungite - what's up with that?

There are several videos on the web that claim to show shungite blocking EMFs. When I did this experiment for myself - passing a piece of shungite between my meter and Wi-Fi router - the numbers DID drop. However, they ALSO dropped when I passed other solid objects between the meter and the router, including my own hand! I don't know exactly how the physics works, but if you consider what shungite does, it makes sense that EMF readings would not change. Why? Because EMF meters are quantitive not qualitative.

Due to shungite's unique molecular structure, it does not block, trap, or filter out EMFs. Instead, it alters their energetic/vibrational characteristics to make them more biologically compatible.

Meters measure the level of EMFs but not the vibrational quality, so they are not a reliable test for shungite. The only way you can be sure your shungite is working is to be sure it is authentic shungite, as explained above.

My shungite leaves black residue on my skin. Is this normal?

Yes, this is normal and usually temporary!

Shungite is a soft mineral, and after drilling and shaping, a fine powdery black residue can remain. After all, it's carbon! This residue can sometimes be found on the leather of a necklace or bracelet after being threaded through a bead hole (despite my attempts to wipe it off), on one's wrist from a bracelet, or on the bottom of a shungite tile (which is unpolished). This is normal and nothing to worry about - as I see it, a small price to pay for the special health benefits it offers.

Black shungite residue washes off easily with a little soap and water. You should see my hands after I unpack a shungite shipment!

Can I get my shungite wet?

I don't recommend exposing your shungite to water (with the exception of using elite shungite to make shungite water, which will be discussed shortly). Shungite is very soft and will dissolve, which you will see as a trickle of gray water. You should always remove your shungite jewelry when swimming or taking a shower.

Why does my shungite piece have little metallic specs?

In addition to carbon, shungite contains a wide variety of natural elements. The most common is the mineral pyrite which is present in little specs and veins - these are the metallic spots you see. In fact, pyrite is so common that these characteristic metallic inclusions are one of the indicators that your piece is genuine shungite.

Interestingly, these little specs and veins frequently become brighter and more noticeable with time and wear. Because shungite is SO soft, as a piece is worn and handled, any thin layer of shungite over a vein slowly wears off to reveal the pyrite inclusions below. This is perfectly normal and just adds to the natural beauty of the piece!

Do I need to "clear" my shungite?

I am often asked if shungite needs to be "cleared" like many crystals by setting it out in the sunlight or moonlight, etc. There are conflicting recommendations about this. Some - including crystal expert Judy Hall - say that you do have to clear it.

On the other hand, Regina Martino, who write the book on shungite, writes there is no need to clear shungite because of the unique way in which it works. It doesn’t trap or filter or collect negative energies - it transforms them energetically. Because it’s not hanging onto anything, there is nothing to clear. I tend to go with Martino because she studied shungite intensively for many years.

That said, it certainly won't hurt anything to put your shungite items out in the sun, especially if it makes you feel better. I have salt lamps at home, and on occasion I have draped my gemstone jewelry over them.
