Come explore this fun and unique mindfulness experience as we create personal tabletop labyrinths and mandalas together. You’ll practice bringing your attention to the present moment by building designs using a variety of materials such as stones, beads, and other small items.


Some materials will be provided, but you are also invited to bring items as well, for your own use or to share. These are temporary constructions, so all materials will be returned. Labyrinths and mandalas may be photographed to preserve the memory, but this is ephemeral art and, just as with Tibetan sand mandalas, releasing the design is part of the process.


​Scientific research has shown that meditative activities have significant long-term health benefits. Mindful awareness of the present moment can reduce stress, tension, and anxiety, lower heart rate and blood pressure, and encourage relaxation and insightful introspection. This practice of sinking into the experience of creating and connecting with the geometric patterns of labyrinths and mandalas is a wonderful mindfulness tool.


Facilitators:
Yadina Clark, MFA - Labyrinth Designer and Researcher
