Remember the coolest trend in 2016? The Mandala Coloring Books? I saw it, mostly on my Facebook and Instagram feed. So I decided to buy coloring books,and it's on sale! and of course coloring pens to do it (My inner artist self calling, charot!). After I bought the book and the pens, sadly I never had the time to put colors on the book. I was busy then in work everyday and my studies everynight. Sadly, up until now the book's still on my box, stucked for 2 years and have not realized that coloring books has benefits.
Here are the Top 7 benefits of coloring for adults;
- Your brain experiences relief by entering a meditative state
- Stress and anxiety levels have the potential to be lowered
- Negative thoughts are expelled as you take in positivity
- Focusing on the present helps you achieve mindfulness
- Unplugging from technology promotes creation over consumption
- Coloring can be done by anyone, not just artists or creative types
- It’s a hobby that can be taken with you wherever you go
"Creating something we call art doesn't mean producing a sellable piece of work. It's about experiencing the joys and challenges of creation and elevating the soul to new heights." ~bigthink.
