The Little Book of Colouring for Calm - 100 Mandalas for Relaxation in Minutes

A mandala is a sacred circle, a symbol of wholeness. The word ''mandala'' comes from the Sanskrit word meaning ''circle'' or ''sacred center''; although the word has its origins in ancient India, this sacred symbol is found in all cultures, expressed in art, architecture and everyday objects. Adding color to these intricate designs demands mental focus and concentration, naturally causing mental chatter to fade away while you focus on the sensory experience of coloring. The designs in this book have been created with relaxation in mind, and their small size means that you will quickly feel the benefit; within just a few minutes you should find yourself absorbed in the flow of bringing a beautiful design slowly to life. You can take this book anywhere you like - think of it as an emergency de-stressing kit! This collection of 100 designs by best-selling author Madonna Gauding will help you to you to create moments of peace that leave you feeling refreshed, calm and focused. Features : - Single page per design to prevent bleed through - Suitable for a range of materials and techniques, including colored pencils, watercolors, acrylics, felt-tipped pens and markers. - Variety of meditative designs ranging from satisfyingly simple to absorbingly intricate - Hours of coloring time - Contains tips from the author on using the book to relax, meditate on a problem, and inspire creativity
