National Coloring Book Day

Okay, take me back! Sis, did you know coloring calms your nerves. I mean like it’s so relaxing, According to Beaumont.org, coloring can relax the fear center of your brain, the amygdala. It induces the same state as meditating by reducing the thoughts of a restless mind. This generates mindfulness and quietness, which allows your mind to get some rest after a long day at work. Sis, in a nutshell, coloring relaxes you; period.
When I was growing up I always colored it was just so calming, As a child, I didn’t know why coloring was so peaceful but now as an adult, I just have to carry a coloring book with me to keep me in a calm place; lol. Do you have an adult coloring book? OMG! I love mine. I get lost in my little world with my coloring book and I’m just at peace with whatever is going on around me. If this is your first time hearing about the effects a coloring book has; today is national coloring book day! Go get yourself a book NOW! Lol I know that was kind of loud but I am serious; I promise you’ll love it!
