About Malas:

Malas are sets of prayer beads used to keep your mind focused spiritually when reciting or mentally repeating a mantra. Mala is an ancient Sanskrit word meaning "garland". They are the traditional and spiritual tools of the Buddhist and Hindu religions

How to use:

Close your eyes and observe the speed and depth of your natural breath. Begin to breathe deeply and bring your focus and attention onto your mantra or affirmation. Next, hang the first mala bead gently on the middle or ring finger of your right hand. Place your thumb on the guru bead and begin reciting your mantra. At the end of the mantra push the mala bead away with your thumb and move onto the next bead for another round. Continue until you reach a count on 7, 21, 27, or 108. If you wish to do another round of mantras or affirmations, do not skip over the guru bead. Instead, turn the mala around and move in the opposite direction.
