MINDFULNESS COLOURING
This is one of our Young Artist Academy creative activities.
Colouring can be an enjoyable alternative to meditation or mindfulness, and can be used as a way to reduce feelings of anxiety. In particular, colouring-in a mandala (a round shape) has been found to be the most beneficial form of colouring in for reducing anxiety. Set yourself up in a nice quite space and enjoy this activity.
To keep the fun going you can also book a free 'Family Zoom' session with Lizzy for this activity. Click here to book a session. (Family Zooms are available to people living in the Mid West region of Western Australia)
