Book Reviews of Creating Mandalas
Book Review: An Excellent way to find out more about yourself
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is an amazing way to find out more about yourself and where you are at any particular moment. I teach in a school for massage therapy and this is one of the things I do with my students. We spend a few hours discussing Mandalas and what their significance is and then they create one. It always gives them such great information and it's a great way to chart progress as well. Some of them do mandalas on their own throughout their time in school and we can watch them morph and change. This book gives detailed information, instructions and assements of what your mandala means. I highly recommend it.Book Review: An excellent browsing or reference book.
Summary: 4 Stars
There is a lot of information in this book, presented in an easy to read style. It explains the history of mandalas and the practical use of them. The text has headings on colours, symbols and numbers that appear commonly in mandalas when people create them. The text also has headings on the form or design of the mandala. Under the headings, the author draws on her own extensive research and insights to explain how each colour, symbol and number and form can be interpreted.Book Review: An indepth coverage of a very personal process
Summary: 5 Stars
This book offers a very in depth study of mandalas. I was skeptical since mandalas are such a personal process that this book would be as comprehensive as it is.
Excellent job and if you get the other two spiral bound mandala books that go along with this - you can get over the intimidation of an empty circle quite quickly. I now have SO MANY ideas for painting mandalas of my own that I only use the mandala "coloring book" (templates) for relaxation exercises in the evening.
These books have truly been a godsend! Relaxation is the key and these mandala exercises are a great way to get there.
Enjoy!
Book Review: Creating Mandalas
Summary: 4 Stars
Great accompaniment to the sacred feminine coloring book of mandalas. As I learn more, I will surely use this more: AND likely order more of her other books. A fine tool for creative writing and personal reflection.Book Review: How to understand Mandalas
Summary: 3 Stars
this book gives an overview on how to understand mandalas. I was looking for a book on creating them and teach students how to create them. This book is all words no pictures so if you are a teacher and want to teach students how to develop them this is not the book. If you want to understand mandalas and how they are used, this is the right book.
