Sankalpa Mala | Grey Pearl Mala for Intention & Truth
A vow to your truth. A prayer for healing. A mala infused with love.
Hand-strung during a time of deep transformation, the Sankalpa Mala is more than a necklace—it’s a sacred tool to guide you through life’s initiations with grace, clarity & heart.
In Sanskrit, Sankalpa combines san (connection, truth) with kalpa (vow, intention). This powerful word invites you to choose truth again & again—no matter what life brings.
Woven slowly over the course of a year, each mala in this limited collection was created during the maker’s father’s great transition. Strung with mantras, washed with tears & held in love, this piece carries the energy of devotion, healing & new beginnings. We are honored to share it with you.

THE POWER OF PEARLS
Pearls are born slowly, layer by layer, within living beings—symbolizing patience, transformation & beauty through adversity. Across cultures, pearls have been revered for their moon-like glow, representing purity, protection & emotional depth.
In Ayurveda, pearls are considered soma-rich—cooling, calming & deeply nurturing. They help soothe the nervous system, balance excess pitta & vata, and awaken the intuitive wisdom of the heart.
PEARL COLOR MEANINGS
-
Grey: Emotional maturity, strength through adversity & quiet transformation
-
Silver: Moon energy, peace, trust & intuitive awareness
-
White: Purity, sincerity, spiritual insight & new beginnings
Together, these tones create a balanced & energetically aligned mala—ideal for meditation, healing rituals & moments of renewal.
HOW THIS AYURVEDIC MALA SUPPORTS THE DOSHAS
Crafted with intention, this Ayurvedic healing mala is designed to restore balance across all three doshas—Vata, Pitta & Kapha—through the natural energetics of pearls, gold & silk.
-
Vata (Air + Ether): The natural weight of pearls, silk's smooth texture & the mala's grounding presence help stabilize the mind, ease anxiety & calm the nervous system—ideal for Vata types or anyone feeling ungrounded or overwhelmed.
-
Pitta (Fire + Water): Pearls’ innate cooling properties help pacify excess heat, soothe emotional intensity & support graceful transformation, making this mala a supportive tool for Pitta imbalances.
-
Kapha (Earth + Water): Gold accents add warmth, energy & light to inspire movement, motivation & upliftment—helping balance the heaviness or stagnation often experienced by Kapha types.
Because it integrates cooling, grounding & invigorating elements, the Sankalpa Mala is tridoshic—meaning it supports balance for all Ayurvedic body types.
