Summary
This study looked at whether painting mandalas (circular, patterned designs) can help women with gynecologic cancer feel less anxious and more emotionally balanced before and after surgery. 84 women participated, with some doing mandala painting and others receiving standard care. The goal was to see if this simple, non-drug activity could improve psychological well-being and reduce anxiety during a stressful time.
