Yogi Surprise Jewelry Subscription Box Review – May 2015

Is there any way to get this box? I signed up but the box I’ll be receiving is June’s.

This box looks great! They sell those rings at a Bali import store next to my house in FL – they cost $0.50 there.

I like this box well enough to get another box. The chocolate was delicious! The bracelet I like. The 3 with the symbol looks like 30, and I am turning 30 in June! The mala is okay. I don’t really do the spiritual part of yoga: I do the stretch and balance part. The way the ring was just thrown in there was weird, but I’ll wear it. Hoping for something blue in June!

This box looks awesome! Especially the pretty necklace. I may have to try to get this box.

Are the truffles gluten free? I couldn’t tell from their website.

Oh dear heavenly!! I just tried the chocolates.. I see many orders in my future. That dark chocolate delight!!

Liz, does this box include information on malas, such as their intended use as a prayer/meditation tool? Because I find it to be offensive and disingenuous that a mala is included in a jewelry box. It endorses its use as decoration, which it is not meant for. They even called it a necklace, which proves that point further, since a mala is decidedly not a necklace, though it can be worn around the neck (and it does make a lovely necklace) when it is not being used. Highly spiritual people will generally wrap the mala around their wrist (or just let it dangle from their hand) and count the beads (108 of them) with their fingers, saying a prayer with each bead they pass. It appears to me that Yogi Surprise did not send a mala for prayer purposes (since it’s in a jewelry box), and so they must know that people who receive them will likely use them just as jewelry. This is appropriation and, in my opinion, exploitative of those who may be interested in being introduced to yoga and spirituality but are uninformed. For the record, this is a beautiful mala and I highly encourage all those who received one to consider using it the way it is intended, as a balancing tool. You don’t have to be religious in order to take advantage of it; whenever you’re stressed out and need a moment, sit down, close your eyes, and count the beads. Say something like “breathe” each time you pass a bead, or just count them from 1 to 108. I really do hope you enjoy it. Getting off my soapbox now.

I love that Amethyst bracelet!

I may order a box of chocolates for my sister who is gluten-free. I may look for the bracelet on swap. I have amethyst throughout my house. I even have a small one on my desk.

I really loved my box. I like that the little ring that was put in has a little flex to it so that you can put it on multiple fingers. I wore it out the day I got it. Also wore my beads, actually wear them around the house a lot and they hang right over my laptop when I’m not wearing them. Those seed are such a unique feel. Highly impressed with the quality of both pieces. It’s on my keeper list.

I subscribe to the regular yogi surprise and love it! It has improved so much from the first box. Really wish I had signed up for this. I love Amethyst and the mala beads (although I have a set from another Yogi surprise box are lovely. Not to mention the chocolates. May have to drop a box (quarterly discovery box, maybe) and add this.

The OM bracelet is gorgeous! – The chocolates look so much yummier then the icky ones in the regular box. – I like this box a lot for the price – It is nice to see real stones instead of plastic ones. – Gonna ad this box to my wish list that seems to be getting longer, and longer – LOL!
