The Wheels of Life an exploration into Kundalini Yoga and Mandala Making

YogART Practice

The synthesis of Yoga and Art is very powerfull practice. Through Yoga ones becomes grounded in ones body and the internal mind chatter diminishes. As one approaches the Transformative Art Making, one embodies that state of being through its manifestation of ones own art. Countless times we have seen people shift from feeling of restlessness and leave theYogART experience with deep and fullfilled sense of meaning. The Art that is made becomes a marker and talisman of their experience.
