I have discovered a mindful duo! Coloring with Audiobooks
Coloring isn’t just for kids—it’s a creative outlet that reduces stress and fosters mindfulness. Pair that with an engaging audiobook, and you have a recipe for pure joy!
Imagine filling intricate patterns with vibrant hues while being whisked away by a thrilling mystery, a heartfelt memoir, or an inspiring self-development story. Together, these activities offer the perfect balance of focus and escape.
I am often so consumed with thoughts and planning that it takes me longer than I would like to get to a mindful state of mind. This combo never fails to get me there straight away! Here is a little about the why…
Why Coloring?
Coloring boosts creativity and focus; coloring provides meditative relaxation; and it keeps your hands happily busy. Not to mention that I am feeling pretty proud of my artistic creations these days!
Why Audiobooks?
Audiobooks make stories come alive. I love reading physical books as well, but this is a whole new experience. Perfect for escaping thoughts and worries, not to mention there is a limitless genre awaiting you.
Check your library and download the Libby App. TRUST ME, borrowing audiobooks from the library is wonderfully free!
This combo is perfect for your next self-care session. Grab your coloring tools, press play on a favorite audiobook, and let the magic unfold!
