Coloring Therapy uses the activity of coloring as a wholesome
self help, self discovery and therapeutic modality, best used as you, the therapist, counsellor or teacher sees fit.
While coloring (with felt tipped markers, colored pens, pencils,
etc) a state of consciousness similar to meditation occurs. This by no means detracts from the fun of coloring, but actually
enhances the biology, mind and emotions of the participants.
Why Coloring and What’s
the Therapy?
Mandala Coloring is pretty straight forward and just about anyone
can do it. It’s non-competitive, multicultural, share-oriented and it works in every language. It has a wide range of
application from Art, Recreational and Color Therapy to eye-hand coordination development and psychiatry for trauma, anxiety
and acute shyness, just to name a few.
Of course, it’s also wholesome fun, but for those of us
who have a lot of responsibilities, professional or otherwise, Mandala coloring can also be time away from stress and the
nagging demands of our own inner dialogue.
