June 2025 Mandala of the Year Section 6: Calmness — outline for coloring

Download to Color

My overarching theme for 2025 is a quest for peace…mainly from within. After all, the outside world is just a reflection of our inside world. So if we want peace in the world, then we must claim it from within. With each section throughout the year, we’ll explore different aspects of peace using 12 different words that translate as peace in some way…and gradually reveal this year’s Mandala of the Year. Here’s this month’s word:

Calmness – A Steady and Peaceful State of Mind or Surroundings

The absence of agitation or worry, calmness is often associated with nature (e.g., a calm sea or breeze). Scandinavian Influence: The Danish word ro (calm) often reflects their peaceful, hygge-filled lifestyles.

Possible action steps:

  1. Coloring: As you color this section, reflect on areas in your everyday life where inner calm would be of benefit to you and those around you.
  2. Practice: Practice a guided visualization, imagining yourself in a calm meadow or a gentle sea. Incorporate affirmations like, “I am calm, centered, and at peace.”
  3. Practice: Practice deep breathing (e.g., box breathing) to reset your nervous system
  4. Metaphysical Tool: Diffuse calming oils like chamomile or use rose quartz to nurture inner peace

“Keep calm and carry on.”
