Can you remember the sense of peace and enjoyment you felt while coloring as a child? Can coloring help you relax?
From choosing colors to the gentle, repetitive motion of your hands as you bring color to paper, coloring can be seen as a form of “active meditation”. Oftentimes, when you think of meditation, you think of sitting still for a long period of time. With active meditation, it is just the opposite: repetitive motions such as coloring can help strengthen your focus and easily shift your attention back to a relaxed state. Stressful thoughts and future worries can be simply pushed aside as you take time to enjoy the present. Join us the first Saturday of every month for this mellow, relaxing event.
