**LOVE TO COLOUR?** Colouring with Cats #139 ~ Getting Your OM’s on with Mandalas on Mondays ~ Pandora Welcomes Mew To Monday

A vibrant mandala banner in pink, yellow, and white featuring a large ornate central mandala with radiating lines and dotted accents. The background shifts from soft yellow to bright pink in a smooth gradient. Decorative vertical borders with circular motifs frame the sides. Stylised text reads ‘Getting Your OM’s On!’, ‘And Unleash Your Zen Harmonies’, and ‘Mandalas on Monday’. Two Om symbols sit in the lower corners, and the ©BionicBasil® mark appears at the bottom.

Supurr  greetings, meautiful furiends

Today, Pandora is back to welcome mew to Monday, as she said, after my epic selfie yesterday, 
I think I should take another turn on the blog today! MOL

Nope, we weren't going to argue with that! 

Pandora - A long‑haired black‑and‑brown cat sits on a colourful blanket with red and pink patterns, mid‑yawn, showing an expressive open mouth. Behind her are a white cushion, a black sofa, and a brick wall with a cat tree. This photo is used for “Mandalas on Monday” at BionicBasil®, with Pandora welcoming readers to a new mindful Monday moment.

This is what she thinks at the start of the week, but never fear, Smooch is here!


We hope that mew're ready for the week ahead, so let's jump right in and start as always with our little breathing exercise, which we're sure mew all have down paw by now...  but if mew've forgotten, stop what mew're doing for a moment and take deep fulfilling breaths; counting to five on the inhale and five on the exhale:

Breathe in
Breathe out

Breathe in
Breathe out

Breathe in
Breathe out

Smooch is here again to offer mew assistance in getting your OM's on and Zen Harmonies happening, so just press play, close your eyes and follow his instructions.



Don't mew feel better already?  I know we do!


All the mandalas featured are created & designed by us, aka The B Team.
