The mandala symbol that inspired our Monsoon Mandala collection derives from Indian culture and symbolises the connection to spirituality and the outside world. This pattern is often used in yoga and meditation to encourage positive energy and mindfulness.
We partnered with the team at Yogamatters for our recent giveaway on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram and asked you to share how you unwind after a long day.
