Setting Good Intentions: Choosing the Right Mala or Bracelet

Updated: Jun 21

Intention is powerful. It's the heartbeat of our desires, the compass guiding us through life's journey. Choosing the right Mala or bracelet that resonates with your intention can deeply enrich your spiritual practice and daily life.


"You are what your deepest desire is. As your desire is, so is your intention. As your intention is, so is your will. As your will is, so is your deed. As your deed is, so is your destiny." - Upanishads

When I assist customers in selecting a Mala, I often ask them, "Which one speaks to you?" Your intuition is key here — often, a particular colour or gemstone will draw you in, reflecting a need for balance or connection in your life. Each piece in my Gemstone Chakra Mala Collection is carefully crafted to align with the energy of its corresponding chakra.


Key Takeaways:

  • Follow Your Intuition: Choose a Mala or bracelet that resonates with you intuitively.

  • Set Clear Intentions: Your intention should reflect your deepest desires and values.

  • Activate Your Mala: Use quiet reflection to imbue your beads with purpose and energy.

  • Daily Reminder: Wearing your Mala or bracelet keeps your intention close throughout the day.

Choosing a Mala or bracelet that aligns with your intention can be a powerful way to connect to your hearts desire and your purpose.


"An intention is a guiding principle for how you want to be, live, and show up in the world — whether at work, in relationships, during your meditation, or in any area of your life. Ask yourself, what matters most to you? Your answer could form a powerful intention, for which you can align your thoughts and attitude for the day ahead." – Melissa Eisler

Choosing the Right Mala, How to Set an Intention:

Your intention should stem from your heart's truest desires and values. It can be a specific goal or a simple affirmation of who you want to be. I encourage positive framing—instead of saying "stop being shy," say "I embody courage." Intentions often arise from a place of peace within, so listen closely to your heart's whispers.


To activate your Mala or bracelet, find a quiet space, centre yourself at your heart's centre, and envision light surrounding you. Speak your intention aloud, as if it's already manifested. Let this energy infuse your beads with purpose and meaning. To help guide you in what chakra you may need to balance I have chosen 3 words that embody the chakras super powers......

🧡Sacral ~ flow, create, feel

💛Solar plexus ~ courage, confidence, transformation

💚Heart ~ love, accept, forgive

Prompts to Form Your Intention:

  • What do you want to create or amplify in your life?

  • What brings you the most joy and fulfillment?

  • What qualities would you like to embody?

  • What are you grateful for in your life?

  • What would you like to release or forgive?


Use your Mala traditionally to track your mantra or intention by reciting it with each bead. Whether worn or placed in sacred spaces, your Mala or bracelet serves as a constant reminder of your intention, allowing you to harness the energies of the gemstones you've chosen.


With love,
