Global Mala
Project

The Global Mala Project is a seed of a world-wide experiment in meditation in action, founded by Shiva Rea in 2007. It belongs to the Yoga Lokah, the global yoga community, and unites every continent, school and approach through collective practices based on the sacred cycle of 108 on the Fall Equinox.

The purpose of the Global Mala is to unite the global yoga community from every continent, school and approach to form a “mala around the earth” through collective practices based upon the sacred cycle of 108, on the Fall Equinox, as the yoga world’s offering to further the UN International Peace Day.

Offered annually in over 50 countries, the Global Mala unites the community from every continent to raise consciousness through practice, seva and collective intention.

In celebration of 25 years of Samudra Global School of Living Yoga, we are opening our program to 108 new students of all backgrounds, who want to embody and become a guide of prana flow meditation for all in their community.

Be part of the first 108 to join our new program, supporting people of all backgrounds in 54 countries: Africa, Asia, the Middle East, the Caribbean, Central and South America, Indigenous communities.

There is no prerequisite for our Flow for All program, only a sincere desire to help the world through the benefits of movement meditation. There are no physical limitations. If you can breathe and have the desire to learn and serve, we want to empower the 54 people in scholarship and 54 people who want to be part of our teacher path program.

You can begin this summer, August 1st - this fall, September 1st - or in the new year, January 15th, to offer Prana Flow for All - Movement Meditation for Life through our scholarship program.

The Global Mala has always been meditation in action. Beyond the practice, it has raised awareness and funds for local and global climate change, and gave rise to Moving Activism for 1,008,000 Trees and Yoga Energy Activism, inviting the yoga world to care for our shared home.
