Download or read book Mandalas and Meditations written by Monique Littlejohn and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-04-12 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If failure was impossible, what would you like to achieve? Years ago, I read this quote and it stuck with me. After a few days of meditating on this goal, I approached my husband and asked him if we could pack up and move to Australia. This was a wild idea. After all, we both had phenomenal jobs and we lived in Santa Barbara, California...paradise for so many. Yet, my heart was yearning for a simpler life. I created a vision board of what our lives would be like. We would start a family, own a farm (I know! Crazy for someone who has spent her entire working life in the corporate nonprofit world.) and slow down so that we would work to live instead of live to work. After meditating, I discovered that I needed to keep my hands busy as I pondered what success would look like in the future and I started coloring in mandalas for meditation. Fast forward 10 years. We now live on our dream farm just 10 minutes from the city. I work from home writing books, online courses, and focus on finding inspiration every day. Literally, we are living our dream with joy in our hearts. What is your dream? Have you set your goals for the future? Have you meditated on your future and set goals? Does this make you anxious or hopeful? This book of mandalas and goal setting inspirational quotes can help you on your journey. As you escape into the page, relieving your daily stress, you can ponder what success looks like to you. I recommend that you only do one mandala a day or every couple of days so that the inspirational quote can sink in. Now, pull out your colored pencils and let's get started.

Carve out some time for yourself and get into your Zen. Whether it's for ten minutes or ten hours, make time for yourself to colour with intention, and notice a refreshing change in your perspective. Sending you much love and positive vibes. **PRO TIP** If you plan to use markers, put a few pages of paper underneath the mandala you're working on to absorb any excess colour to keep the mandala underneath clean and new.

From around the world and throughout the ages, circular symbols have been an integral part of centering one's spirit and expressing wholeness.

Each chapter is based on a theme common to mandalas and to the spiritual life. Along with each theme reflection is a picture of a quilted mandala, the story of the quilt as told by its creator (Sacred Story), plus some prayers, holy text, and suggestions for meditation or making your own mandala (Sacred Circles).
