🔮 Understanding the Different Types of Malas

At ALEMENZ, every mala we create is more than just a string of beads—it’s a reflection of purpose, energy, and spiritual intention. Whether you’re meditating, manifesting, or simply embracing mindful living, knowing the type of mala that suits you can deepen your connection to your practice.

✨ 1. Japa Mala (108 Beads)
