Tony devotions

I love, love the mala beads that Tiny Devotions sent me a year ago. [AutoCorrect changed “‘mala’ to ‘male.'” I got a good laugh out of that.] I really think they bring me luck and good energy. I put the bracelets on when I’m having an “off” day and something about looking down to see them makes me feel better and turn things around. Whenever I need an extra boost or bit of good vibes, you can bet our booty I have my mala beads on. Each color cord has a different meaning, so you can choose to wear one or two, or the entire stack.

From their website:

“Our Tiny Devotions mala beads are perfect for beginnings and endings – goals, struggles, worries, dreams, intentions and prayers.

Mala beads transcend cultures and religions and can be found in some form in nearly every tradition around the world.

The word bead, historically coming from the word “prayer” or “to pray”.

These sacred and beautiful beads help us live in the moment – staying present to the beauty of life.

We combine rudraksha seeds with semi precious crystals and pearls to create beautiful designer malas that each have their own specific intention. Rudraksha seeds are known as the eyes or tears of Shiva – and are worn for their protective and sacred qualities.”

Tiny Devotions kindly offered to send a lucky reader the abundance stack of mala beads, valued at $108.

    My newest goal is to keep my bedroom clutter free. It so often becomes the catch all, but it is so much more peaceful and relaxing when everything is in it’s place.

  2. Alicia on June 5, 2012 at 5:16 pm

    But a friends amazing outlook on turning 40 has got me determined to change my tune.

  25. Heather on June 5, 2012 at 6:17 pm

    My goal is to take one moment, every single day, to be truly grateful for the things I have in life. My hearing, my eyesight, my wonderful husband, how lucky and fortunate i’ve been, my work ethic… everything. Life is so good and it is SO important to remember that in my opinion.

  28. Shari B. (FitFeat) on June 5, 2012 at 6:29 pm

    My goal is to work on enjoying the little things and being present to each moment as they happen. I have a tendency to get very focused on what’s coming at me down the road (tomorrow, next week, etc.) and then I totally miss out on what’s happening RIGHT NOW.

  29. Alicia @ Treble Tart on June 5, 2012 at 6:30 pm

    One of my goals is to run my first half-marathon in November!! I’ve had exercise-induced asthma all my life, and just recently I’ve taught myself to overcome it, and now I’m up to being able to run 5 miles without stopping! (I used to only be able to run a block before I had to stop.) ๐Ÿ™‚

  30. Amber on June 5, 2012 at 6:30 pm

    My goal is to focus more on being present so I can enjoy every moment to the fullest!

  34. Ashley on June 5, 2012 at 6:41 pm

    Seems daunting, but it’s an all encompassing goal that gets to the heart of what I’m really all about!

  35. Jenn on June 5, 2012 at 6:42 pm
