Our Story

Mama Malas designs mala beads and intentional accessories for mothers who want to be fully present, intentional and mindful with their kids.  

We started making mala beads because we believe that setting aside time daily to meditate and set your intentions is the most important thing you can do when striving to live an intentional and authentic life.

It is our job as mothers to be our children’s anchor, the calm enduring presence that can ground them during the turbulent moments of life. But as mothers we need an anchor as well, to ground us, remind us of our intentions, and bring us back to our center so we can remain present and intentional with those we love.

Designed with healing stones to support your intentions, each Mama Mala has been handcrafted with the intention of supporting you on your journey of Motherhood.

Mala beads are meditation necklaces that are used to recite an affirmation or mantra, and are a tangible reminder of your intentions.

Each mala is made up of 108 +1 beads since it is said that our bodies contain 108 major physical and subtle energy channels that reach the heart chakra. By meditating with your Mama Malas and chanting or listening to  a mantra 108 times the energy from the mantra permeates both the physical and energetic body.

The 109th bead, also called the ‘guru’ bead, signifies the beginning and end of your meditation practice. The larger guru bead holds the intention of your mala.

To meditate with your Mama Malas, begin by setting an intention for what you want to cultivate in your life.  

Starting at your guru bead, repeat your chosen mantra once for each sandalwood or rudraksha bead on your mala until you come back around to your guru bead. Take a moment at the end to express gratitude for all of the abundance already in your life.

You can also hold your mala during a silent meditation and let it absorb the peace of the practice, or use the beads to count your breath. This is our favourite way to meditate in the morning.

 It only takes a few minutes, but the results are beyond measure.

If your day starts to get off track, hold onto your Mama Mala to soak up its peaceful energy and remember your intentions.

focus on your breath.
Take a moment for yourself

Mala beads help you enter a meditative state as you slowly trace the beads with your fingers and connect with the energy of the stones. Delicate enough for everyday wear, our mala beads make it easy to fit meditation into your day, no matter where you are.

"This mala is absolutely gorgeous and would make any mama feel powerful. The onyx is so strong and grounding, the sandalwood smells lovely, and I love that there is a little bit of rose quartz too! It’s nice to hold in your hand when you need to ground or calm down, and when you wear it, you feel like you can tackle anything! "
