Join Phil for this unique workshop where you will design and create your own Meditation Beads / Mala, learn about Japa Meditation and experience using your Mala for Japa
Workshop includes lunch and all the materials for your creation
A Mala is a string of 108 beads plus a Guru bead
Malas are used as a tool to help focus the mind on meditation whilst saying a mantra, prayer or positive affirmation. The practice of repeating a mantra using a Mala is called Japa (which translates as ‘muttering’ in Sanskrit)
The benefits of Japa meditation are many,
* it reduces stress and calms the mind,
* improves concentration and focus
* neutralises negative thoughts & creates positive mood
* practicing Japa is a meditation in itself and it also brings a deeper state of inner quiet to aid silent meditation
No experience needed to partake in this relaxing and enjoyable workshop
"Had the most amazing experience ever making Japa Beads with Phil. An experience that will last forever in our hearts. Total love Om mani padme hum. Total gratitude Aum."
-Valerie Gillespie
“Making the Mala with Phil was truly a lovely experience at Creacon. I could make my own decisions in choosing the colours & beads etc. Phil is such a charming person and her support was delightful! This workshop was worth it and my Mala already did positive work on me”
- Sarah Soiron
