Our Mandala Classes
Through the use of art, meditation and movement, our mandala classes aid
in transformation and the discovery of our divine nature. Every session begins with
the group taking a moment to create a sacred space and set positive intentions.
Participants will learn a brief history
of the mandala and its use in various cultures. Through meditation and
intention, they will intuitively receive and illuminate sacred symbols for healing
and self-realization.
Using
QiGong (Chi Kung) breathing and stretching exercises, they will develop body
awareness and the ability to enhance and direct their energies toward healing
and creativity.
All participants, regardless of artistic
ability or experience, will create a variety of luminous mandalas using
colored pencils, black paper and other simple materials. We provide a joyous
and non-competitive class, free from ego and fear.
Sessions may also include chakra
healing with color, light and sound; the construction of a group sand mandala;
or a
burning ritual to facilitate the letting go of old, painful memories.
