What’s a holiday without a little 100 before 100 list crushing!?!
For Christmas, the lovely Danielle LaPorte bought me two handmade wrist malas (or prayer beads) from Tiny Devotions and, by doing so, helped me cross off #38 – Rock out with some handmade mala beads!
The black cord mala has beads of carnelian. Tiny Devotions says:
Carnelian is a very strong stone of abundance that restores vitality, creativity and motivation. It aids in success in business and is believed to aid concentration.
The purple cord mala has beads of jasper and sandalwood.
Jasper is known as the supreme nurturer that sustains and supports during times of stress. Jasper also inspires determination of all worthy pursuits. Sandalwood brings the elements of meditation and peace. It is calming and draws us within.
Thanks to D, I have one more tool to keep me honest about my intentions this year. I think this also means that I am also one step closer to being a full-fledged corporate hippie – the perfect amount of Wall St mixed with the perfect amount of Woodstock
… or whatever the Canadian versions of those are.
