I thought since I am doing a series of Mandala Mondays, it might be nice to do some TED Talks Thursdays. For those of you not familiar with TED Talks here is a brief summery of them from www.ted.com:
TED is a small nonprofit devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading. It started out (in 1984) as a conference bringing together people from three worlds: Technology, Entertainment, Design. Since then its scope has become ever broader. Along with two annual conferences — the TED Conference in Long Beach and Palm Springs each spring, and the TEDGlobal conference in Oxford UK each summer — TED includes the award-winning TEDTalks video site, the Open Translation Project and Open TV Project, the inspiring TED Fellows and TEDx programs, and the annual TED Prize.
Halla Tomasdottir managed to take her company Audur Capital through the eye of the financial storm in Iceland by applying 5 traditionally “feminine” values to financial services. At TEDWomen, she talks about these values and the importance of balance.
I think you’ll find this interesting.

TIP 2) Before starting your mandala coloring experience, make sure everything you need is at your fingers!
Nothing is more annoying than having a very wonderful mandala coloring experience, and then noticing you do not have your gum, pencil sharper, that special color marker you got as a present from a friend; you really don`t want this to happen to you! So make sure you have everything you need to have a focused, joyful and uninterrupted mandala coloring pages experience.
Feel free to get a glass of water, tea, a small snack, incense, flowers for decoration & some nice background music. The Mandala Coloring Meditation Kit 2.0 comes with a full 30 minute version of this music.
Here is this week’s mandala to color:
To download a large image for coloring right-click on the image above and select “Save Target As…” or “Save File As…” or “Save this Link as..” (depending on what browser you use). Mac users with a 1 button mouse can control/click rather than right-click.
Enjoy and come back next week for a new tip and mandala to color!

The video I’d like to feature today is Brene Brown: The Power of Vulnerability. According to Youtube:
Dr. Brené Brown is a researcher professor at the University of Houston, Graduate College of Social Work, where she has spent the past ten years studying a concept that she calls Wholeheartedness, posing the questions: How do we engage in our lives from a place of authenticity and worthiness? How do we cultivate the courage, compassion, and connection that we need to embrace our imperfections and to recognize that we are enough — that we are worthy of love, belonging and joy? Brené is the author of I Thought It Was Just Me (but it isn’t): Telling the Truth About Perfectionism, Inadequacy, and Power (2007) and the forthcoming books, The Gifts of Imperfection (2010) and Wholehearted: Spiritual Adventures in Falling Apart, Growing Up, and Finding Joy ( 2011).
I hope you enjoy her talk.
