HOW TO USE MANDALIVE

CHANCE OR CHOICE
Choose an emotion or quality you want to color, or leave it up to the universe see what comes up for you!

INTENTION
Read the given intention or write your own to increase the overall effect of the therapeutic activity.

COLOR IN APP OR ON PAPER
Color directly within the app, or print it out and color with pencils.


WHY DO WE INCLUDE NEGATIVE EMOTIONS & QUALITIES?

We’re told all the time to let go of the negative and think positively. This causes us to repress the emotions and qualities we don’t like or fear will be judged as unacceptable. The problem is that when we deny these negative emotions or qualities without giving them expression or – at the very least – attention, we don’t really let go of them. Instead, they end up hidden in the unconscious, turning into our shadow selves, ready to enter our lives out of nowhere as annoying, unpleasant, or damaging behaviors and situations. 

Living only in the positive throws us out of balance. We’re much more dimensional than that! 

True balance involves an integration of all of the polarities (both sides) in our personalities. We’re meant to live the full spectrum of our emotions and traits. This gives us access to all of the unlimited possibilities the universe has to offer. If we continue to repress the negative, we become less authentic and less dimensional. 

However negative we believe our shadow selves to be, they actually contain a lot of positive mental energy and creativity, if we learn to use them with conscious intent. And Mandalive® is a great way to learn how to do that!

### 5/5 — Helpful

*2025-06-12, version 1.112*

Amazing color book. Loved it. %100 recommended. Effective and easy to use. 💙🩷💚

### 5/5 — cool and unique app

*2016-09-30, version 1.2*

Interesting app, I like that there are individual mandalas for opposite emotions and qualities, I also like that this app is somehow a "self-help book" - because I can read an intention before coloring. I like that I can color emotions like anger and deal with with them in a healthy way. I enjoy various unique features - like random color selection or that I can "burn" mandalas after I complete them...do try it :)

### 5/5 — Such a great fun and relax

*2016-08-02, version 1.0*

Nothing compares to those feelings when my mandala is burning in the mobile fire after coloring. I appreciate the possibility to handle my bad feelings right here right now. Thank you.

### 5/5 — Zaujimava appka - vyskusajte :)

*2016-08-02, version 1.0*

Zaujimave - doteraz som nevidel graficke vyjadrenie negativnych emocii a vlastnosti. Priznat si negativnu vlastnost vyzaduje odvahu. Tato appka je viac ako iba zabava.

### 5/5 — Awesome app

*2016-08-01, version 1.0*

Download it and try it. Even though this is a first version and there much more to come the functionality is there and it already is an awesome app.
