I feel relaxed even looking at that corporate logo! Lululemon, a brand of exercise wear notorious for attracting an extremely centered and meditative clientele, is selling $108 Practice Patience Mala Beads to “help focus the mind and set a mantra or intention in meditation, inspiring us to practice patience and #givepresence every day.”
(#GivePresence appears to be a social media campaign to get people to pay less attention to social media, emblematizing perfectly the doublethink required to drop a hundo on beads.)
“Legend has it,” says the Fabric & Features section of the purchase page, “these white howlite beads help us stay patient and overcome self-criticism.” Yes! When your restless mind is like, “Bitch, do you really need a $108 meditation necklace,” the beads themselves will tell you the answer. “Be patient,” the beads will whisper. “I shall make myself useful to you in time.”
Here are some excerpts from the reviews. From a sarcastic kindred spirit who liked the “beads, logo, price” and adds “logo could be much bigger, could be more expensive to keep poors away”:
