Message

For me, the essence of this week’s lessons is to approach peace and happiness from several perspectives. At the heart of it, this is an internal quest. It takes awareness and choosing again.

As we become aware of our fear-based state of mind—in any of its forms—we’re encouraged to take an extra moment to be present with what we’re feeling: anger, agitation, guilt, worry. Acknowledge it, name it, and recognize that we made the choice to feel this way—usually unconsciously. This puts us in neutral.

Here’s where the simple magic comes in. Because what we’re feeling is a choice, if we don’t like that feeling, we get to choose again.

Just as fear and anger are a choice, so are peace, love, and happiness. It’s our choice.

Ponder this as you color this week’s mandala.

Peace & Blessings,

Maureen

My Mission: connecting with our Inner Light in delightful, inspiring ways For me, creating mandalas is more than just coloring pretty patterns in a circle. I do it because my spiritual evolution and creativity require it of me. My mandala designs come about within an active meditative state, connected with my higher self, my spiritual guides and nature spirits. Together, we bring into form, mandala art the allows me to re-connect with my own inner peace and joy, letting me explore and expand my own creative spirit to however far and in whatever direction I want to take it. As part of my own spiritual journey, I encourage, and hopefully inspire, others to explore their own creativity, to help them re-connect with their own inner peace and joy. As a means to that end, I make all of my mandalas available for people to color. Why should I have all the fun?
