A semi-precious gemstone Japa mala necklace and a matching adjustable bracelet are included in this pair, as well as a lovely poly bag. The sacral chakra, which is the foundation of all our creativity and even our sexual identities, is also a good place to start with Garnet. The Garnet is an amulet of incredible passion if you want to stir up your energy and allow light to flow through your chakras. Garnet connects the wearer with riches and prosperity, and safety, and improves relationships in a multitude of ways, on many levels.

Follow these instructions to Chanting JAPA MALA BEADS: 

• The meditation mala is normally held in the left hand and is handled gently and respectfully. 
• Wrap it across your fingers to make it easier to move. Next to the guru bead, wrap two fingers around one of the other beads. Because some religious traditions forbid using the index finger, many people use their thumbs and middle fingers. 
• Breathe in and out once for each bead you move your fingers to the next one. For each recitation of the mantra, one bead is counted, starting with the first bead to the "GURU" bead. The guru bead is usually bigger and more ornamental.
• After completing a full cycle of the mala, simply move your fingers in the opposite direction until you get back to the guru bead. 

Note: Due to picture retouching, the true color of the products may differ slightly. Poly bags come in a variety of colors.
