“A mandala is the psychological expression of the totality of the self.” - Carl Jung.
Mandala Art is the best way you can get mental peace.
‘Mandala’ is a word in Sanskrit (Sacred language of Hinduism) for “Circle” or “Center”. Mandala Art is a geometric design that holds a great deal of symbolism. These arts are used for meditation, prayer, healing for both adults and children as well.
When I was in college (just passed TY), I used to be a volunteer in Creatives groups for our college events. One day my senior Momo (nickname) was doing some drawing on his book, I just went and took a peek into it as I love to learn new things and was curious to know what he was doing. And he used to teach us a lot of things. He had taught me many things in that 2 years before the corona pandemic of course. He told me to do the same drawing he was doing. We spent hours doing that Art. I was amazed that I completed it and I loved that art so much, since that day I started to practice Mandala Art.
Mandala Art has helped me changed my behavior and the way I used to look at things every time. The way I used to act has changed a lot. I have learned many things from this art and it is beneficial for your mental peace.
Designing and coloring mandalas can help one focus on one attention. It helps to calm down if you're stressed by waking your mind. Mandalas make it easy to connect with yourself.
These arts keep your mind fresh and help to mediate which in turn brings harmony, and the negativity changes into positive things and also brings balance to life.
Mandalas have been said to be the best Therapeutic tool. They are like pieces of art that can help you relax and free your mind and also have a huge creative potential. It also brings a sense of calmness. It has shown in clinical studies that it boosts the immune system, reduces stress, promotes sleep, and eases depression.
Creating a mandala is self-soothing and very relaxing. Mandala also helps when you are going through something and don't want to discuss anything with someone. If you're feeling alone or want to spend some time alone you can definitely practice mandala art. I'm sure it will make you feel better and change your life.
