Mandala is a Sanskrit word meaning circle, or center. It is an ancient form of Hindu art used for meditation and concentration. You may have seen the sand mandalas created by Tibetan monks. The circle is a universal symbol that has been used for centuries by many civilizations. Working within a circle provides a structure and a way to slow down, relax and be expressive. Studies have shown that drawing within a circle can have calming effects on the body and can help to relieve stress.
