Why This Mandala Is So Relaxing
A tiny, adorable cow sits in the middle, surrounded by little hearts. Around her is a wreath of tulips, wheat stalks, leaves and blossoms, framed by a twisted band like a rope. Further out come rings of swirls, hearts, flowers, leaves and clover. The patterns repeat all the way around, so itโs easy to settle into a calm rhythm.

Mandalas and Cows
The word mandala comes from ancient India and means circle. You can color a mandala from the outside in or from the inside out โ both help you focus. The wheat in this mandala is a nice match for the cow: besides grass and hay, cows also eat some grain. On pastures where clover grows, cows happily munch it too. And did you know a cow can live to be over 20 years old?
