Art Therapy: How to Draw a Mandala
Art Therapy: How to Draw a Mandala
I have found that drawing mandalas have been very good for my mental health, and it is a great way to help me focus my mind so that I'm very mindful of the present moment. Below is a great article that discusses how to draw mandalas. The article is a way to get started, but a mandala can be anything, not just what they draw in the article. A mandala should be very personal to who you are so that it has meaning to you. You can make your mandala anything you want it to be.

@RideaRainbow, check out 100Mandalas.com. She has organic and geometric (even sacred geometry) mandalas from simple to complex.
Wow this is so cool, will definitely be trying this out soon! Thank you so much :) <3
@Probius
Mandala is really relaxing, i got it on my ipad with sounds, so nice to compose the different colours and sounds
@Probius
Nice! I love that!
@Probius
HI Probius this is so so awesome and very mindful!!! My daughter who has autism does these all the time. She is so detailed and so focused. But then she stops and gets confused. At that time we do something else and then she is so eager to get back to it and color. I do not have patience to create something as beautiful as these can be. But I do other arts n crafts and where my mind is so focused on the persons likes and how they will react when they open the gift. Thanks for this
@RumpleSteeleSkin That's interesting that these help your daughter. I have Asperger's, and I began these on the recommendation from my counselor. I have found that they are very helpful. I'm glad they help your daughter as well. <3 :)
@Probius
thanks! yes when she is "off the charts" and silly minded I call it-I remind her of these and its good for her
