Stone Variace and Screen Display
Each mala - made out of Mother Earth Magic - is unique and one of a kind as these gemstones are natural and will vary in design and finish. Your mala may not look identical to that in the picture. If you are concerned and would like to approve your mala before it is knotted, please feel free to reach out. I am a perfectionist and this is sacred, I understand.
Care + Repairs
Malas are a daily meditation tool made of gemstones delicately hand-tied on soft cord and can break down over time. Wear your mala gently to avoid snagging or wearing down of the knots. Store your mala lying flat, not hanging, out of the sun to avoid stretching the cord and discoloring the stones. Read about safe ways to Cleanse + Charge Your Mala on the blog.
If you're anything like me, you're going to love your mala to death. I wrap mine around my wrist (not recommended), I take mine in the hot springs and ocean (not recommended) and I fidget with the guru bead (again, not recommended). If you tend to wear your mala down faster than average, I'm here to repair it for you. I want you to live with and love your mala exactly as you would!
Some believe that when your mala breaks, you have released the karma that these gemstones were guiding you through. Maybe, maybe not, VERY interesting things have been known to happen!
Repair your mala or update it's design, read more on the blog here.
When and if the time comes, Contact me to discuss your redesign or repair ( repairs starting at $35).

I take a few days off each month in the Deep Luteal and Menstrual Phases of my Menstrual Cycle. Read more about that on the My My Moon Malas Women's Health Blog and in the Menstrual Disclaimer below.
I honor my Menstrual Cycle, here's how it affects you:
My creative process honors the Wild Power of the Menstrual Cycle. I hold meetings and chats when I am in my Follicular and Ovulation Phases. In my Luteal and Menstrual Phases, I follow the natural call to separate and go within. Luteal and Menstrual are great times to re-examine, send layout photos and hand knot but not the most energetic times to plan and gush and geek out. I will take a few days before and first day or two of my bleed off. I will notify you (you may not even notice) and most certainly work around your deadlines if I am aware of them from the start.
Winter may be the busiest time of year for shopping but it is the season of Menstrual energy and I choose to do less during this time. Shop the pre-made, one-of-a-kind mala beads and reach out if you need something made-to-order or wait until I re-emerge after the first New Moon in January (my Intentional New Year).
Read the My Moon Malas Women's Health Blog for more information on Menstrual Cycle Awareness and women's health.
"Part of my mission is to break the social taboo around menstruation for men, women and children. The menstrual cycle is one of the most natural things. Every woman bleeds. It is what makes life possible, and yet it is shrouded in secrecy and unnecessary shame. Menstruation is not dirty, gross, nor anything to be ashamed of. When harnessed correctly, it is a women’s greatest source of power.
My mission is to empower women to feel fully confident in how to master their own menstrual cycle. To teach them how to work with it as ally. To know how to communicate their needs to loved ones and co-workers. To understand that they are dynamic beings and that they are okay just as they are.
I want women to feel sexy, empowered, alive and at home in their own body. To learn how to harness the unharnessed power of their menstrual cycle so that they may live a vibrant and healthy life, and to be completely in tune with their own internal guidance system." - The incredible, Cree Cox
