Expressive Arts / Mandalas invites you to gently explore your inner world through intuitive, symbolic creation. This therapeutic offering is not about artistic skill or technique, but rather, it is about the healing process that unfolds when we give ourselves permission to express emotion without words. In the context of grief, art becomes a sacred language, allowing the soul to speak what the mind cannot always articulate. Art becomes a bridge between the conscious and unconscious. 

Mandalas are drawings in a circle and they are rooted in spiritual and psychological traditions. Mandalas serve as powerful tools for reflection, integration and transformation. Creating a mandala offers a way to access the unconscious, illuminating emotions, insights and energies that may be difficult to reach through verbal expression alone. Each session provides a supportive, non-judgmental space to explore personal symbolism, process grief and connect to deeper sources of wisdom and calm.

You will be guided with prompts, encouragement and grounding support as you move through your creative process. Materials are provided and no prior art experience is needed. What emerges on paper is less important than the personal meaning it holds for you. Mandalas are mirrors of your emotional landscape and a step toward healing. Carl Jung referred to them as a snapshot of the psyche in the moment they are created. 

Whether you are honoring a loved one, navigating change or simply seeking clarity, Expressive Arts / Mandalas offer a peaceful, contemplative path inward. At Corrales Grief Spa, we believe in the power of creativity as a vessel for resilience, remembrance and renewal.
