Mandala Day
The Art of Being You
online, Saturday 7th February 2026 10am - 3pm
Listen into the heart of who you uniquely are, beyond what you think about yourself.
Cath, Edinburgh, UK
Being given permission to play and create in a non-judgmental space first has opened a new side of me up. I am dropping the old label of 'not good at art' to 'I am a creative being' and finding ways to enjoy these new ways of expression.
Jo, Suffolk, UK
I found the day happily surprised me, inspired me, moved me, was fun and also personally very transformative.
Pamela, UK
I found the day centering, restorative and calming, due to your guidance Fay. The sense of connection and also personal space to explore my inner self and express this reflection from making my first ever mandala. The course pace was gentle but yet felt it shifted something within me. Very powerful.
‘What have you seen of your own still concealed beauty?
One of these days at dawn,
you will rise from within yourself like a sun’.
(Rumi translated by Helminski and Rezwani)
On this meditative day, you are invited to enter into the mandala of your potential, through creative discovery.
Much of the time we relate to ourselves through what we think about ourselves. And there’s often criticism there. Let’s take time to drop out of all that and get in touch with our true heart using mindful creativity. From here everything looks different.
In an imaginative process (similar to a vision or mood board), using accessible art and/or collage, we will create a personally meaningful mandala image step by step.
Combining:
-
Mindfulness, imagery-based and somatic meditations
-
Jungian psychology - the symbolism of the mandala and the use of the symbolic imagination
-
The Tibetan Buddhist concept of mandala as a representation of a system - the universe or the heart-mind, and as a map towards wholeness and spiritual potency
-
The neuroscience of manifestation
This event includes:
-
3 short pre-recorded videos: 1. Introduction, 2. Mandala Symbolism, 3. Creative Imagination
-
1 audio imagery journey
-
The main event on Saturday 11th October 10 - 3pm
-
An informal and optional meeting to share about it all on Wednesday 15th October at 7pm - 8.15pm
Questions to spark your curiosity:
• Who are you already, before the trying, pushing, reaching, criticism?
• What if you trusted that your inherent value in the world can come to life the more you relax into who you already are?
The intention is that careful, mindful guidance will give you the confidence and freedom to drift out of your head and into creative flow. Here the thrill of seeing your inner richness reflected back to you off the page becomes possible.
Your mandala will be a kind of talisman to your true heart, to remind you of how to listen into the art of being you, in your day to day life and in service of the world.
No artistic ability necessary! Let's say a kind goodbye to our inner critic and focus on the joy of the process rather than perfect outcomes!
