If you experience stress, anxiety, panic or anger, if you have attention deficit, autism or have difficulty focusing, use a Mandalynth to help reestablish mental clarity and promote mental relaxation. A Mandalynth is a Celtic Art Mandala you trace like a Labyrinth. Tracing focuses visual and tactile signals, and allows the brain to decompress. A meditative state occurs quickly as the brain moves from “active processing” into “mindfulness”. When the brain is mindful it is not in a state of stress. When the brain is mindful, it can manage triggers that cause panic, PTSD, and anger. When the brain is mindful, it can focus away from the signal overload that causes attention meltdown. ----------- How to Use A Mandalynth ----------- Just choose a Mandalynth design and trace it with a stylus, a capped pen, or anything that won’t harm your screen. You don’t need to touch the Mandalynth. Just lightly skim the surface of the design. Start tracing anywhere and finish whenever you like. Tracing a Mandalynth is about following an endless pathway, allowing the mind to center and relax. Open Mandalynths are best for managing stress, anxiety, panic and anger because they are very calming to trace. Medium Mandalynths are best for attention deficit, autism and light mental challenge because they are slightly complex to trace. Tight Mandalynths are best for puzzle solving and mental challenge because they are very complex to trace. Add music or soft sounds from the Settings Page to enhance your tracing experience. ----------- Useful Tip ----------- SWITCH HANDS WHEN YOU TRACE! It’s easier than you think because the hand does not move when you trace. The shoulder moves the entire arm. Switching hands every so often exercises the mind and promotes neuroplasticity. Trace a Mandalynth for as long or a short a time as you wish. There are no rules. Trace for a few minutes to decompress from a stressful moment. Trace for a while to meditate. If you find that time has passed without you noticing it, it’s because your brain needed that time to fully relax. ----------- Health Benefits ----------- People who use Mandalynths have reported the following benefits: 1) Lower heart rate and blood pressure 2) Pain relief 3) Insomnia relief 4) Headache and Migraine relief 5) TBI recovery assistance 6) Post-seizure recovery assistance These results are anecdotal and not true in every case, but they have been true for many. ## Key features - Stress and anxiety reduction - Improved focus and attention - Meditative tracing experience - Variety of mandala designs - Enhance with music or sounds - Promotes neuroplasticity ## Pricing and in-app purchases Base price: Free. **One-time purchases** | Purchase | Price | Type | | --- | --- | --- | | Open Mandalynth Pack | $3.99 | one-time | | Medium Mandalynth Pack | $3.99 | one-time | | Tight Mandalynth Pack | $2.99 | one-time | | Music Pack | $2.99 | one-time | | Soft Sounds Pack | $2.99 | one-time | | Mandalynth | $19.99 | one-time | ## Recent user reviews (6 of 6) All indexed reviews: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/celtic-mandalynths/id958980279/reviews.md ### 2/5 — Needs work *2019-09-21* Nice idea. Although it needs work. I didn’t know how to unlock the next level. I would trace the same picture over & over without any way of unlocking the next. Music was nice. ### 1/5 — Wonderful app - will change rating to 5 stars once the restore purchases button actually works *2017-01-02, version 1* Please get restore purchases fixed in a future update, would indeed be quite helpful in case I have to restore iPad from a backup ### 5/5 — Great game *2016-08-15, version 1* I love this game because it helps me relax and calm down. I love this app so much especially the background music!thank you so much for this app I love it! ### 3/5 — Not bad but very limited *2016-03-02* The app itself is well designed, with a nice background and properly arranged categories, but the free side is very limited. You get one of each of the 3 types of mandalynth, one background sound option and one music track. In order to get more, you have to pay, but rather than just unlocking, you have to buy each category separately, which adds up - £2.99 per mandalynth style set and £2.29 per audio set. ### 2/5 — Disappointed *2016-02-01, version 1* How can I fully decide if the app works for me when I only have access to 3 pictures? The idea is appealing and I found this app from a counseling magazine but if I had known the limited access I'd have...I wouldn't have bothered downloading it. From what I could see, the pictures are beautiful and I would see myself using this app but I'm sorry I'm not about to spend more than a $1 when I have limited choices to test it out. ### 5/5 — Great for helping with relaxing! *2015-06-09, version 1* It's amazing how simply following a trail can suddenly lead to intense concentration and relaxation! I hear there's been some research backing this up and it makes sense. If you have anxiety attacks, you need to give it a try. Works best on ipad. ## Frequently asked questions about Celtic Mandalynths ### What is Celtic Mandalynths?
