Wherever you go, there you are. Whatever you wind up doing, that’s what you’ve wound up doing. Whatever you are thinking right now, that’s what’s on your mind. Whatever has happened to you, it has already happened. The important question is, how are you going to handle it?

When you look at your mandala. What do you see?
Did you do something out of your comfort zone or unusual that surprised you or got your attention?
Anything you can take from the workshop, which might help you in your daily life?
I would like to point out how, especially at the beginning, the workshop lead into being more aware of those thoughts we usually try to hide in our daily life. From my point of view, awareness is the best starting point for furthers reflections.
Did you do something out of your comfort zone or unusual that surprised you or got your attention?
Initially I felt a little insecure about imperfection. Later on I understood is not about how accurate is your draw is about flowing and allow yourself show your hidden feelings.

One word or sentence to summarise your experience. - Introspection
Anything you can take from the workshop, which might help you in your daily life?
Awareness of my thoughts, emotions and be in the moment.
Did you do something out of your comfort zone or unusual that surprised you or got your attention?
I allowed myself to make mistakes, not to plan in advance
Although we were a group, was a very intimate experience which allowed me to connect with myself through the art. The short meditation, music and words of Nebi helped a lot.
Was an amazing experience that I would definitely repeat.
Well, drawing has never been my passion and talent but today, I was led through it without having to be perfect.
More important was the process itself, being focused, relaxed & aware of what's happening inside & outside.
If you have a subject struggling, I recommend a guided meditative mandala session with Nebi. Even if I knew, what was going on in me, it was like looking into a mirror in a way and I can even say, it's kind of magical cause I see more & more patterns each time I look at it now.
Thank you for the guidance, dear.

When you look at your mandala. What do you see?
It shows me the beauty of diversity.
