Prayer beads are also called mala, japa beads, juzu beads, or worry beads. In Catholic religion, they are called rosary beads. They are commonly used by Tibetan, Hindu, Chinese, Korean, and Japanese Buddhist monks, Zen priests, or believers. They normally have 108 beads plus the guru beads. The number, 108, is considered a sacred number in Hinduism, meditation, and yoga. In Tibetan Buddhism, it represents the 108 volumes containing the words of the Buddha. Tibetan malas sometimes have 111 beads.

This mala is made from simulated hematite gemstone beads. The weight, quality, workmanship, and overall sleek presence set these prayer beads apart from others. The mala is versatile. You can wear it as a bracelet by wrapping around your wrist or wear it as a necklace. It can be worn by men or women at any age. It is not only a beautiful piece of jewelry, but also a great tool for different applications such as Padmasambhava mantra chanting, yoga, or meditation. The stone beads are resistant to tarnishing and contact with water will not affect its appearance. You can wear it while taking a shower, swimming, or hiking. It is a great conversation piece because of its uniqueness and nonconformity.

Hematite stone has been known to have healing and relaxation health benefits and might be able to increase blood circulation, get rid of numbness, and level moods. Therefore, hematite jewelry is commonly used by those who have arthritis, looking for magnetic therapy, or are active in sports such as golf.
