a modern meditation


Sometimes we need a reminder to slow down, breathe deep and take a moment to ourselves. I feel like I have needed that reminder more frequently lately so I decided to work on creating some interpretations of a meditation bracelet. 

Meditation bracelets usually have 27 colored beads and a counter bead. The tradition is to do 108 mantras - 100 plus and extra 8 in case you made any mistakes. The 27 beads and counter are used so you can go around the bracelet, mantra once per bead, 4 times to reach 108. 

You can find these bracelets in my etsy shop


There is so much significance to colors too so I did some bracelets with colorful beads so specific colors can be worn if there are specific things you want to meditate on.

Red - the 1st Chakra, love, passion, energy, courage, protection, strength, courage - a wish for love 
Yellow - the 3rd Chakra, learning, mind, communication, confidence, persuasion, harmony, creativity -  a wish for abundance
Green - 4th Chakra, healing, money, prosperity, luck, growth - a wish for healing and prosperity
Blue - the 5th Chakra, awareness, meditation, tranquility, truth, forgiveness, dreams, inspiration, balance -  a wish for peace and healing
