Creative relaxation with Mandala motifs for coloring Let the lines guide you and embark on an exciting journey of discovery. These motifs have been developed especially for people with visual and motor difficulties. Problems, which the author also has. In spite of the large offer she never found the suitable templates for herself and so she developed her own templates. Annotation of the author: "I tend to look at every picture with my nose on the canvas. I'm very fond of detail and like to drive with my finger along lines and structures. The reason why the outlines of my motifs are thicker than usual is that I have motor problems and can hardly drive along a delicate black line with a crayon without painting over it. This annoys me every time and these Mandala motifs forgive me for one or the other unwanted swerve." Softcover, 21.59 cm x 21.59 cm (8.5'' x 8.5''), 36 motifs, each with an unprinted back so that pens cannot push their way through the underlying image. If you like a motive particularly well, you can easily cut it out and hang it up or give it away. When using felt pens, however, I would put a loose sheet of paper between the pages. Just for safety. Mandalas are geometric forms oriented towards a centre and can be found in many cultures. From India and Tibet they spread with Buddhism in East Asia. They activate the subconscious during meditation and have a positive effect on the psyche. The Indians also know this symbolism. A mandala appeals above all to spiritually oriented people, but it also stands for joie de vivre, energy and unity with the universe.
