The Mandala serves to move us towards psychological growth,
expressing the idea of a safe refuge, inner reconciliation and wholeness
(Carl G. Jung, Mandala Symbolism)
Mandala is a Sanskrit word meaning circle (Manda—essence, La--container).
Mandalas have traditionally been associated with spiritual practice and
self-exploration. They have been used to help focus attention, to clear the
mind, to access deeper levels of consciousness, to attain spiritual connection
and knowledge, and to work towards wholeness and integration.
In this brief but focused workshop, we will use mandala imagery, writing, and
meditative practice to explore connection between ourselves and others.
Previous art experience is not needed in order to benefit from this arts,
healing, and creativity program. The workshop is designed for all ranges of
artistic experience.
Objectives 1) Attendees will be able to list three ways that mandalas have been
used therapeutically in the past.
Objectives 2) Attendees will be able to list three strategies for using mandalas
as a tool in art therapy for identifying and meeting therapeutic goals.
