Mindful Mandalas from Nature 2024: Welcome Nature directly into your life
February 10 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Join us for an afternoon of creativity and relaxation at our upcoming event, Mindful Mandalas 2024. Immerse yourself in the art of Nature Mandala creation and experience the soothing benefits it brings to your mind and soul.
During this in-person event, you will create a Mandala from natural elements to highlight specific areas of your life important for this coming year, and help clarify your intentions for 2024.
The event will begin with a sharing of what Mandalas mean to cultures throughout the world. We will then align ourselves with the more than human world through Qi Gong, then we will quietly walk the grounds of Ruscombe Mansion to gather nature items (weather permitting). Crafting our Mandalas, reflecting through journaling, and sharing will take place within the last hour.
Event Details:
- Date: Saturday, February 10, 2024

At the conclusion, we will return our items to nature in gratitude. Feel free to bring your own journal and items from Nature, blessing the Earth with gratitude for what she gives. We will provide items such as leaves, pine cones, stones, feathers, and acorns.
Engage in a mindful practice that encourages relaxation, focus, and self-expression. The event is open to individuals of all skill levels, whether you’re a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creativity.
