Art as a Spiritual Path: Discovering Your Soul Mandala

Art as a Spiritual Path: Discovering Your Soul Mandala

Week of December 9-14

This workshop's start date has passed.

Workshop Details

The mandala, an ancient symbol and concentric map of the psyche, has been used by various cultures around the world, including Tibetan Buddhism, Aborigines, and Native Americans. This workshop will introduce you to the mandala and, through it, to the mystery of the soul and the passionate world of the inner artist. It offers a supportive initiation for all participants, regardless of experience, to open to their natural creativity through art, meditation, ritual, and music. Each participant will complete a colorful personal mandala as a symbol to live with, to study, and to begin a process of learning, growing, healing, and artistic development.
Discover your soul symbols as powerful tools for personal and professional transformation. Come to a deeper understanding of your own creative forces. Mandala painting can open your eyes in a heart- and soul-connected way—to see and feel things you may never have experienced before.
Art supplies will be provided. No previous experience is necessary.
