What are malas
|
What do I need?Your Yoga Hive mala kit will come with everything you need to create your new mala during the workshop, including the strand and guru beads, the stringing/knotting thread, the tassel thread and even the kneedle to string your beads.
It is helpful to have a few simple extra things on hand as you create your mala. You may not need to use them, but at least you'll be ready if you do! Grab a scissors, a pointy toothpick or maybe even a sewing needle (for helping untie wayward knots - don't worry - it happens to all of us!) and maybe even a small bowl to set your beads in or a hand towel to lay on your work surface to keep the beads from escaping your space. |
Mollie Busby is a driven entrepreneur with the spirit of a summer camp counselor and a kind, midwestern smile. Mollie is a seasoned yoga and meditation teacher and off-grid home builder with her husband, Sean. Although the pair now calls Alaska their home, they have deep roots in the Flathead Valley, and Mollie commutes back to Montana and Wisconsin to manage her two yoga studios.
Wherever they are, the Busbys choose to live close to the land off-the-grid and pursue their life’s work. The pair started Riding On Insulin, which Mollie ran as Executive Director for 7 years, until Sean took over in 2017. It was then that Mollie shifted much of her focus to Yoga Hive, and now, to Yoga Hive Studios, taking the brand beyond Montana. Yoga Hive is known for its inviting vibe, friendly instructors, and willingness to show anyone that yoga is for everybody and every body. Regardless of the method, Mollie sees her purpose on this planet as cultivating community in small groups of women — whether in a yoga retreat setting or during the 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Trainings she runs in Montana, Colorado and beyond. She enjoys spending time outdoors skiing in the winter, hiking in the summer, and playing with their dogs all year round: Daisy (a Weimaraner), Glacier (Border Collie/Great Pyrenees Mix), Milo (husky/Shepard mix), Powder (Alaskan Husky) and Coldfoot, or Coldie for short (Alaskan Husky). |
