Workshops
At the Mandala Center, New Mexico
“Mandalas can be seen as keys that unlock the mysteries
of our soul’s architecture.” --Adam McClean, The Western Mandala Mandalas are circular designs signifying wholeness. They have been used in healing for centuries by cultures the world over because of their transformative effect. In her powerful workshops, Lily Mazurek takes participants on a journey, using the Mazurek MethodTM, exploring Mandalas and how they’ve been used around the world. The process of discovering personal symbolism through practice of color and shape follows next. Finally, participants go through a preparation process after which one issue is explored through guided Mandala-making. The Workshop takes places in a safe, supportive environment accompanied by music. No art experience is needed to participate. The Mandalas produced in Ms. Mazurek’s workshops are similar in style to the organic, curvilinear ones created by Dr. Carl Jung and his patients. Please note that all art materials are usually included in your class fee.
