MOCO (more compassion) Self-Care Kits to promote self-care


Mala and Mantra, the mindful jewelry and lifestyle brand, along with like-minded spa, resort, beauty + wellness brands:  Aura Candles, European Spa Source, Helen Jon, Le Marche by Naked Princess, The Mindful Living Collective, Skin Authority, and Travertine Spa is launching their MOCO (more compassion) self-care kit on malaandmantra.com this week.

While caring for her 82 year old high risk mother during this pandemic Mala and Mantra founder Judith Compton realized how important compassion is not only for getting through this uncertain time but how necessary and vital it is to our own relationships and interactions.  Taking care of someone who may not be able to completely care for herself taught her how limitless our ability to express compassion can be. 

Compassion  noun

com·​pas·​sion | \ kəm-ˈpa-shən

Definition of compassion

: sympathetic consciousness of others' distress together with a desire to alleviate it


It was so meaningful to Judith when her mother told her ‘You should be a caregiver.’ The irony is she is a retired registered nurse and hearing that from her was very humbling.  Caring for others and providing wellness runs in Judith’s  family.  Her father was a family physician and General Surgeon and her mother a RN.  Judith has so much appreciation and respect for the healthcare profession as it provided for her family and gave her parents a higher sense of purpose.

While in quarantine Mala and Mantra Founder + Creator Judith Compton had an idea to collaborate with like-minded brands in the spa, beauty + wellness space to offer a beautifully curated kit for home use to promote self-care and self-love for individuals during this stressful and challenging time.

“Our MOCO (MOre COmpassion) Self-Care Kit was inspired by my personal goal to continue my family legacy of providing wellness to others by remembering to practice compassion to one another and ourselves.”  -Judith Compton

In addition to sending one kit for every kit sold to a frontline healthcare provider between May 7th - December 31st, 2020, Mala and Mantra will donate $10 of the purchase price of each MOCO Self-Care Kit sold online at malaandmantra.com to #FirstRespondersFirst, a fund administered by the Entertainment Industry Foundation (EIF), a 501(c)(3) charitable organization. This great initiative is supporting the health and safety needs of our public healthcare workers.

Thank you #FirstRespondersFirst for taking good care of our healthcare heroes.

Each MOCO kit contains:  A Mala and Mantra Triple Happiness Gemstone + Sustainable wood mala bracelet with matching calming gemstone (rose quartz for women, tiger’s eye for men), Skin Authority Under Eye Rescue Mask, European Spa Source Sleep Well Pillow Mist Spray in Lavender and Eucalyptus, Travertine Spa  Shea Butter Hand Cream, Naked Princess Naked Shine Lip Gloss, Aura Candles Bubbly Tin Candle, a Helen Jon face mask, and Elisha Goldstein’s Nourishing Breath guided meditation. The kit is available on malaandmantra.com for $49.00 USD. Mala and Mantra will also be including a special surprise gift with the kits being donated to the frontline healthcare providers to help them remember to keep on spreading MOCO.

Judith’s ultimate goal is that our collective practice of compassion may foster a deeper connection with one another.  

“Let’s all think of ways to practice #MOCO (MOre COmpassion) in our daily lives and interactions.”
