Neti Pot Meditation Cushion Eye Pillow Breath Sandbag Note Cards Mala Bag Malas

 

MALAS   CLICK HERE TO SHOP >>>

A mala is a string of 108 beads worn about the neck and used for counting repetitions of mantras and other spiritual practices. This number comes from multiplying the twelve astrological houses by the nine planets. Malas also have a “guru bead” with a tassel attached. It is a reminder of the spiritual teacher in our life as we do our practice. Lengths are approximate.

Several yoga practices are done while lying on one's back in a darkened room. 

Physicians are enthusiastic about the effects and are highly recommending keeping the delicate tissues of the inner nostrils clean and clear of congestion with the wash.  Cleansing (neti) is surprisingly simple and comfortable with warm salt water.  It reduces colds, flu, allergies, nasal problems, and associated headaches.  Clean breathing is also a prerequisite to clear thinking.  The integral connection between breath and meditation makes nasal wash a vital part of spiritual practices.  Instructions are included.

 Over the years we have been trying various meditation seats for those who wish to sit on the floor during their practice.  We believe we have found the best seat!. Our cushions are double-covered, hand-sewn, buckwheat hull-filled.  They are extremely comfortable since the user can form the shape and height that is desired by moving the filling around.  The outer cover is made of heavy cotton in a variety of colors.  Let us select one for you.  Prices include shipping charge for item weight.   These hand-made, smooth silk pillows help one to eliminate visual stimuli and release eye tension.  They are lightly filled with organic flaxseed to hold position and not slip off the face.  We have several colors, including the black or red suggested by the Himalayan yogis.

To store or carry your mala when it is not being worn, we have small, draw-string bags to keep it clean and private.  Bags are 3 x 4.5 inches.

 The flexible shaped weight-bag (10 pounds of pure sand) tones the abdominal region and induces the healthful benefits of diaphragmatic breathing, increases alertness, calms the mind, and conditions the practitioner for deep relaxation.  This five-section pillow is the exact design of Swami Rama.  To use, lie in a relaxation posture, place the pillow on the abdomen, and breathe.  Instructions included.  Let us select the color for you!  Prices include shipping charge for item weight.
