Personal Experience And Customer Review
To activate my Mala, I wore it for 40 days straight to sync it with my energy. After this period, it became a staple in my daily practice. After those 40 days, I incorporated it into my daily practices. I used it mainly to reprogram my subconscious mind!
Every once in a while, I smudge it in order to cleanse it from those releasing cycles, and I rub it with pure Olive Oil.
Customer Experience: Many report feelings of deep peace, better sleep, and seeing more synchronicities in their daily life.
