Such a great idea! Sometimes colors, patterns, and shapes speak even louder than words, along with moving your hand so freely across the paper. I've lost a brother, my job, and my health in the last few years and I have used journaling, poetry, dance and qigong, and more lately art to help me regain my equilibrium. This exercise, in its simplicity, can be very grounding, soothing, and insightful, I'm sure. Thank you 🙏🏼

So good to see you here, Holli! This is a simple exercise and the movement when coloring is very meditative, like qigong. That reminds me; I have a qigong coloring book I'll have to pull out again. I'm glad you resonate with journaling, poetry, dance and qigong. It is all so healing. Sending a ginormous hug as you navigate whatever is unfolding after all that loss and change. I'm right there with you. xo
