Ghost Tribe’s - Meditation Beads "Blood Agate" 6mm size, 100 stones, Approx 31 inch strand length

Whether you wish to call them Mala, prayer beads, or meditation beads, their purpose is the same. The beads help with counting your breath and maintaining focus to aid in full Zen meditation. Historically each stone would represent a different prayer or intention and you would focus on each one as you meditate. But with each religion that uses beads in meditation, variations exist. What most don’t say is that pressing the stones between your fingers and rolling along your knuckles induces pressure points that increase blood flow to your brain, thus making it easier to relax and reach a meditative state. Our necklaces are handmade out of semi-precious stones sourced from around the world. And each has a unique latent energy inside it from where it was originally mined. These are designed in a traditional Buddhist design with separators for traditional prayer, however ours are designed to cut down on the length which can get in the way of wearing them daily. They can be worn around the neck or wrapped around the wrist. The strand count is 100 beads. Each necklace is hand knotted dual strand waxed polyester, with 6mm Agate, and lead/nickel/cadmium free Tibetan accents. The tassel is hand tied of silky cotton-poly thread in the method that is traditional.

Specific Notes:

Agate helps to cleanse and stabilize your chakras, by eliminating and transforming negative energy. It also helps to enhance concentration and focus mental functions, while soothing and calming inner tensions. This makes it a good all-around choice for deep meditation or just chill time. Agate can be found on every continent, though we source ours from Africa. They are mostly made by small artisans with archaic tools and machinery as a way of supporting their families. In Africa the revenue from one strand can feed a family for one to two days. Our hope is that through our demand for these the distributor will be more likely to buy these types of stones and help support these artisans.

STONE ENERGY: Our meditation beads worn daily can be a great tool to remind yourself of your intentions, goals and the healing benefit from the gemstones. Stones emit and store energy that can be helpful in clearing or charging your chakras. It is recommended to cleanse and recharge your stones if you are going through stressful times or find yourself being surrounded by negative energy. You can use the sun to cleanse your stones whenever you require it by simply placing it outside in direct sunlight for a few hours. The sun offers healing and positive energy. To recharge your stones, place it all night under full moon light this will allow it to be recharged it with a new intention.

CAUTION: Please note that natural stones are precious, porous and delicate. It is not recommended to shower, do strenuous labor, or extreme workouts in them. Any task that could cause them to snag or hang up could damage them or be dangerous to you.

PLEASE NOTE: There may be slight variations due to the natural color and shape differences in stones and pendants. And since most of our beads are sourced from small artisans, many beads are made with very old techniques and hand equipment. No stone is perfectly round or the same in color or pattern.
(Strands may be strung tight at first so that they can naturally loosen over time)
