Want To Be More Mindful? Try This Colouring Book

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


This book is a gem—a colouring book for adults.

The book, entitled The Mindfulness Colouring Book: Anti-stress Art Therapy for Busy People, and created by French illustrator and graphic designer Emma Farrarons, is filled with pages of beautiful black-and-white line drawings.

Art therapy is nothing new, nor is the idea of colouring—’colouring-in’, I always called it—for adults, but this colouring book is the best I’ve seen, and it now sits on top of the Australian independent bestseller list.

Numerous peer-reviewed studies have shown that mindfulness improves one’s powers of concentration, focus and attention, and the converse seems true as well—that is, any activity requiring those three things enhances one’s powers of mindfulness. Additionally, such an activity can serve as a powerful anti-stress remedy, and study after study has shown that mindfulness is a most effective anti-stress remedy.

I love this adult colouring book. For a baby-boomer such as myself, the book is not only great therapy, it’s also a chance to re-experience one of the great joys of my childhood.
