Enjoy a relaxing, meditative activity that can help you build your confidence, tap a well of energy, and illuminate your purpose in the world. Coloring Mandalas 4 focuses on themes of "being" and "doing" to help you clarify your vision and find the motivation to act on it.

The "being" mandalas represent a place of balance, integration, and self-realization; these designs are built on the structure of four within a circle, such as designs reminiscent of heraldic shields. The "doing" mandalas represent action, energy, and functioning in the world; these designs are built on a structure based on the number five, such as five-pointed stars and flowers with five petals. Together, they help you evoke an understanding of your personal goals and stimulate the energy to work toward accomplishing them.

A perfect companion for previous books in this Coloring Mandalas series, Coloring Mandalas 4 offers the same depth and guidance that coloring enthusiasts have come to love from art therapist Susanne F. Fincher.
