This week I welcome Tammy Fodrey of Malas in Bloom to talk about the significance of malas and how she began working with these sacred tools. Tammy creates these beautiful pieces herself with high quality, high vibration crystals and also hosts workshops to teach others how to make them. She walks us through the history of malas, how we can work with them in our own daily spiritual practices, and how to care for them. 
Through her work with malas, Tammy reminds us of the power and significance of setting intentions, which is the important first step of every design project we begin as Holistic Interior Designers.
Guest Bio
Founded in 2015, Malas In Bloom is the manifestation of Tammy Fodrey’s vision to create a Mala jewelry business that nourishes the roots of ancient traditions while inspiring spiritually-oriented people who are guided by their intuition, self-healing powers, and the awakening of the heart and spirit.
All Malas In Bloom pieces are designed by Tammy, drawing on her background in design and merchandising as well as her love for cultural antiquities, art, yoga, spirituality and nature. More than just jewelry, each piece is a blend of beauty and integrity, created to foster happiness, health and prosperity while helping you move through the world with intention and personal authenticity.
