What’s a mandala?
Mandala means “circle”, it’s an ancient symbol that represents the universe. The circular geometry signifies strength and unity, and the patterns, signify symmetry and consistency.
Mandalas hold special significance because they are designed to lead us closer to the center of our being, to the unwavering truth of who we really are. Like yoga, mandalas help us achieve union. No matter their form, mandalas offer us a profound way to examine our inner reality, to integrate that understanding with our physical selves, and to feel connected to the universe.
In this workshop, our mandalas and yoga will activate pathways to the mind and body. Through them we will establish and regain a sense of balance, identity, to help us integrate present-day experiences and unfold future direction for growth.
