In Mandala Workbook for Inner Self-Discovery  she shares the methods she has developed over the course of a decade for creating these symbols of wholeness and balance -- and teaches readers how to make their own. Derived from a Sanskrit word  mandalas are a universal symbol of wholeness. Huyser introduces mandalas throughout history and from all over the world. They are found in almost every culture: Australian Aborigines--dreaming  cave paintings of sunbursts and spiral shapes  Navajo shamanic ritual paintings  Hex signs  Tibetan Buddhism  Celtic circles  the I Ching and many others. Mandalas also occur in nature in the form of flowers  spiders webs  the annual rings of trees  ice crystals  and the solar system. Kandinsky  Klee  and OKeefe painted them and they surround us everyday as clocks  wheels  kaleidoscopes  compasses  and umbrellas. Huyser provides practical artistic information about materials to use when creating your mandalas and provides a list of shapes  symbols  colors  and numbers and what they mean so that you can combine personal and ancient iconography to fully express yourself. Used as wall hangings  ornaments  or jewelry  mandalas are also powerful meditation tools. Reflecting on them can bring you back to your center in times of unrest. The book ends with a chapter of relaxation and visualization exercises that will help you make manifest your subconscious in the form of a mandala.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67924795424821,"sku":"ByrdShop_9074597564","price":57.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9789074597562.jpg?v=1794141390","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/mandala-workbook-for-inner-selfdiscovery-9789074597562","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
