Mala
A mala is originally a hinduistic and buddhist tool for prayer and meditation. It is used to count mantras during meditation. A mantra is a collection of words, often from Sanskrit, which is repeated several - traditionally 108 times. While repeating, one should focus on the meaning and vibration of the words, possibly combined with the accompanying visualisation. By training in a meditation practice like this, one's thoughts come to rest and the body relaxes. Nowadays, a mala is also worn as a fashion accessory.
SERFOR certified Palo Santo products
This Palo Santo comes from from forests that are managed, authorised and certified by the Ministry of Agriculture and Irrigation (SERFOR) of Peru. Only Palo Santo trees and branches that have fallen naturally and remained on the land for at least 3 to 4 years are used. This way of harvesting does not harm nature and only wood with a rich aroma is used.
