Carl Jung described a mandala as “a representation of the unconscious self”.
In the ancient Sanskrit language of Hinduism and Buddhism, mandala means “circle.” Traditionally, a mandala is a geometric design or pattern that represents the cosmos or deities in various heavenly worlds.
The process of creating round, symmetrical images can be very beneficial within a healing perspective. This spiritual circle will help promote mindfulness, focus attention and promote healing.
This workshop is a creative art experience that guides you through the meditative process of creating your own mandala. An immersive 2.5 hour workshop to take you on a journey to teach you how to create your own beautiful Mandalas.
You will learn how to lay out your mandala, where to seek inspiration for your mandala content, how to set yourself up to draw, placement of mandala, the focal points and pattern layouts with how to bring in colour to complete your mandala. We will go deep into discussion around Sacred Geometry and all it’s magic with details on how to draw and use it within this meditative process.

- 2B Pencil
- Rubber
- Compass
- 60cm Ruler & also a shorter one
