Mandala Soap :: My Newest Creative Adventure

It's official... Mandala Soap has arrived and, as of today, is now "officially" available for sale!

It is with great excitement that I say those words, as Mandala Soap has been my dream in the making for over seven years!

It is extremely rewarding to see something that I hold so close to my heart finally come to fruition and be birthed into the world.

My name is Valerie Rickel, and I am the developer of Mandala Soap. I am also the founder and creator of SoulfulLiving.com a popular web community and internet magazine devoted to personal growth and spirituality.

Mandala Soap is my love and my passion. It brings together so many of my favorite things: art, spirituality, soap, and mandalas! It has long been my dream to bring the beauty and healing nature of mandalas to product development.

I have been planning and developing Mandala Soap almost as long as I have been creating my website, SoulfulLiving.com. Those same seven years spent dreaming up the idea for Mandala Soap were also spent publishing thousands of self-help articles at my website, written and submitted by many of today’s best-selling authors and leading-edge thinkers within the personal and spiritual growth movement.

My intense love and interest in mandalas runs deep. I came to discover mandalas through the mandala images left behind by my artist father at the time of his death and the rich insights about these mandalas that I found in his journals. Read more about his journals here.

In fact, my passionate interest in mandalas inspired me to launch an online store called, Mandala, in 2001, to complement the content offerings at my SoulfulLiving.com website. The store offers a unique and unusual collection of mandala-inspired gifts and tools for soulful living. While my store has offered products obtained from other producers for the last six years, I have always known in my heart that, one day, I would have the resources to bring my own products to market and sell my own mandala-inspired goods. Mandala Soap is the first realization of that dream!

Mandala Soap is a new and unique gift -- the perfect gift for art lovers, spiritual seekers, and meditation or yoga enthusiasts!

Our collection of 10 blissfully fragrant, clear-transparent “stained-glass” soaps are embedded with colorful mandala art images that are reusable and frameable. Mindfully handcrafted in the USA of high-grade biodegradable vegetable glycerin, Mandala Soaps are cruelty-free, vegan, long-lasting oversized decorator bars, presented inside of clear protective packaging. Beautiful, meaningful and meditative, Mandala Soaps are sure to inspire moments of peaceful centeredness!

Your Mandala Soap idea is really inspiring to me. I have recently been experiencing a similar thing since launching my web site just a month or two ago. Mine is a shop of gems and jewelry and guide to crystals and animal totems called PerfectlyEarthly.com.

It is really nice to see someone in this genre of sales who seems to have integrity and a genuine love for their products.

Good luck to you, and I'm definitely going to have to check out your soap. : )

Wow, Mandala soap! That's really nifty. I'm student teaching right now in an high school art room, and some of the students are making mandalas. :)
