If you’re looking for relaxing puzzles that combine meditation and color therapy, you need look no further than the Mandala puzzle.

Suitable for people of any age, our Mandala-themed jigsaw puzzles can be useful tools for relaxation and cognitive development, as well as spiritual growth. So, if you’re ready to dive into the abstract space of thoughts and perhaps even meet your real self along the way, read on.

What Is a Mandala?

A Mandala is a type of geometric pattern originating in Buddhist art from India’s classical period. When Buddhist monks began to spread throughout Asia, they took the Mandala with them, introducing it to Tibet, China, and Japan, and, as a result, the Hindu faith.

For practitioners of Buddhism, Hinduism, and other Asian faith systems, these intricate circular designs were—and remain to this day—representative of the ideal form of the universe. The Mandala has long been used as a reflection aid, with their creation traditionally seen as a means to help people reach enlightenment and healing.

This ancient practice has applications beyond the spiritual. Indeed, Mandala drawing is one of the most commonly practiced forms of artistic expression therapy, thanks to the endorsement of the highly influential psychiatrist and psychotherapist Carl Jung.

What Is the Connection Between Mandalas and Wooden Puzzles?

So, what does this sacred and ancient symbol of harmony and mindfulness have to do with wooden puzzles? There are a surprising number of commonalities. Firstly, both promote wellbeing and help us unwind. Just as one draws the same geometric designs over and over when creating a Mandala, so, too, one builds on patterns when putting together jigsaw puzzles; these repetitive exercises promote a reflective and thoughtful mental state.

Additionally, Mandala drawing and jigsaw puzzle solving have similar cognitive effects. Both these activities can help with concentration, focus, and spatial perception. While these benefits are especially apparent in children, they can be helpful for people of all ages, and can even help lessen the risk of cognitive decline in the elderly.

The Benefits of Mandala Jigsaw Puzzles

The humble Mandala jigsaw puzzle has a number of benefits. For one thing, Unidragon’s Mandala series puzzles combine meditation and color therapy, promoting relaxation and wellbeing as well as exercising the mind and assisting cognitive development. On a more spiritual level, they can help us make sense of the chaos around us, helping us find harmony and mindfulness in the tumults of the world.

So long as you take your time, breathe, and build your puzzle with a mindful attitude, you’ll find yourself feeling calmer and more present. Better still, you’ll be left with a gorgeous work of art upon completion.

Buddhist monks often make Mandalas out of colored sand, destroying them upon completion to depict the inherent impermanence of existence — but you shouldn’t feel obliged to do the same with your jigsaw puzzle! Such beautiful works of art deserve to be displayed. Why not fix your puzzle to the wall using Unidragon’s jigsaw puzzle mounting kit?
