Download and color the July 2024 Mandala of the Month
For 2024 I embark on “A Journey Into Joy”…you’re welcome to come along with me. Each month I’ll be leading us through a modified version of the hero’s journey, as professed by Joseph Campbell.
My quest for this year is to work through all that is keeping me from my joy. I know it’s there and I intend to uncover it, one month at a time, once and for all.
Step 7 The Approach Time to approach a “dangerous” place. In an adventure movie this is usually an impending big battle. For me/us, it’s more like a mental barrier. In essence, the approach is marked by a setback of some kind. It becomes a lesson in persistence, where we must cope with failure, change our mindset, and/or try new ideas.
This step is about the approach itself, where we must navigate to get closer to our ultimate goal. The stakes are rising, and failure is no longer an option. Well…that’s a bit over the top…but you get the picture.
THE PROCESS
I’ll be coloring this mandala once a week throughout the month, l as a way to address “the refusal” in the different areas of my life that I wrote about for Step 1 (health, home, “The Mandala Lady”, and my purpose). I’ll be posting my colorings along with “my refusals” at the MandalaoftheWeek.com.
AN INVITATION
I invite you to color along with me this year on “A Journey Into Joy” with all of my “Mandalas of the ___” (day, week, month, year). If you’re interested in a more self-exploration approach to coloring, check out my “Coloring Mandalas as Meditation”.
Feel free to share your colorings on social media with the hashtag #2024MotM. I’d love to see them.
You can also follow along on IG, Threads, and Facebook (@TheMandalaLady)
