Mandala is Meditation
Just like meditation, colouring also allows us to switch off our brains from other thoughts and focus only on the moment, helping to alleviate free-floating anxiety. The art of mandala making or even colouring in a mandala has been proven to reduce anxiety and stress, help focus the mind, improve our relationships and help us to feel more at home in the world.
The repetitious patterns and lines of the mandala are why it is so useful in making us feel calm and focused, other types of doodling and colouring don’t have the same effect as a mandala does in reducing stress and improving cognition.
