Integrate the wisdom of meditation and the joy of art into this two-hour mandala making meditative healing arts experience.
On the surface we are creating beautiful circular art based on repetition and pattern. However, the experience can go much deeper. Mandala making can be a tool for deep inner contemplation and healing. The mandala is a physical representation of our inner journey.
What to expect: Our class will begin with a short mindfulness centering activity with essential oils and a singing bowl. We will create a judgment free space for exploration and creativity. I will demonstrate the basic flow of mandala making and offer several symbols and designs to choose from for your own mandala. The mandalas we make are freehand and spontaneous, so no need for rulers and compasses, however an occasional circular object to trace will be available. You will leave with a finished project and a sense of accomplishment.
What to bring:
Quotes/Poems/Affirmations
I invite you to bring your favorite verse to add to your mandala or simply to hold in your awareness while drawing.
