Hey everyone 
Hope you all are having a good if not decent week. I can't believe it's November already! Feels great here in Cincinnati today. Unseasonably warm at 73 degrees. Wish it would stay that way. Anyway,
We get a lot of posts asking about how to deal with depression & anxiety so I thought I would post this in hopes of possibly helping a few people if any. Adult coloring has become insanely popular recently. I've seen coloring books everywhere I go so I decided to give it a try. You don't even need artistic talent to color! Coloring is for everyone. It's cheap and easy. There are simple designs available as well as more intricate ones. I suggest starting simple to avoid being too intimidated. Color with whatever materials you feel comfortable with. I've been using gel pens but I also love colored pencils. I would suggest starting with a set of 24 pencils to get a good variety of colors
Instead of sleeping all the time I've been coloring the past few weeks. It's even more relaxing if you light some candles and listen to soothing sounds or music. Rain, waterfalls, the ocean. Give it a try! You can frame your finished piece and display in your home or give as gifts.
Here are some examples I've done so far...
Currently working on this one. These designs are from the Mystical Mandala coloring book. You can get here:http://www.amazon.com/Mystical-Mand...d=1446760207&sr=8-1&keywords=mystical+mandala
Don't wanna buy a coloring book? Search google or Pinterest for FREE coloring pages. Plenty to choose from.
