Beginner's Mandala (Maagalot) Course
Creation, Understanding , Awareness
 Mandala making is a form of meditation in motion. It is an empowering scribble.
In the beginner's course, you will learn how to disengage your thoughts, how to let go and not plan your work
Colors are selected through feeling. There is no judgment.
Such relaxation leads us to calm, joy, realization, clarity, focus, health and power to cope with life's challenges.
The power of the mandala is both in its making and in its presence. As your mandalas emerge from your inner core, your life will also change.
In the course of my work as a mandala-maker, I have developed unique methods to reinforce the link between the circular doodling process and the natural growth of the creator - and this is the main focus of my beginner's course.
 The course will guide you through the meditative process and provide you with the practical tools for creating your own mandalas. You will learn to release your inner resources and establish a connection between the tangible present, the here and now, and the deeper levels of the soul.
Courses are available by invitation, please contact courses@maagalot.com
A regular course is conducted at the "Briza" center in Carmiel (ISRAEL). This course is spread over eight meetings, lasting an hour and a half each, during which we experience the power of the mandala from a place of love and respect for our creations rather than criticism and judgement.
The course include:
 Use of different drawing and scribbling materials.
How to let go of one's conscious awareness and let creativity arise from an inner sense.
Learning to see and understand the significance and effect of color, shape, texture and the synergy of the whole.
Creating from a position of love, acceptance and respect for our own creativity.
Combining various shades of color through an awareness of their power and positive influence on our lives.
Recognizing the significance of sacred shapes: The circle, the square, the spiral, the star, and more.
Learning to see and acknowledge the power of the mandala as a mirror of our innermost being.
Course graduates who wish to conduct a personal meeting with me to discuss what their mandalas reflect are invited to do so.
An advanced mandala-makers course (power, reflection and cosmic contact) is now being planned for graduates of the beginner's course.
Details to be published.
Looking forward to seeing you,
Michal
Experience the coloring of a mandala
 You can experience the feel of coloring a mandala by downloading the sample mandala (a different one is uploaded every few weeks).
Print the mandala on paper or card and color it as you like.
You may use felt-tip pens, pencils and color pens.
As you color, try to select your colors by feel rather than by thinking about the outcome or planning ahead.
Many find that coloring mandalas is a very satisfying activity that can provide a deep sense of peace, calm and pleasure.
You may send me the mandala you colored along with a short description of what you experienced during the process. Once every few weeks, one of the mandalas sent in will be chosen for display on this webpage.
For further details please read the submission rules below.
