Your Stress Away
Its impossible to stay on all the time. Just
as a car engine overheats if you continue to
rev it, keeping your mind in high gear puts
it under a level of pressure it cant sustain.
If youre feeling overwhelmed, stressed,
anxious or agitated, and unable to think
clearly, take your foot of the pedal, and clear
your mind with The Mindfulness Colouring
and Activity Book, from Gill Hasson, the
author of the best-selling book Mindfulness.
This portable book contains colouring,
games, and activities all designed to give
you a break from your everyday concerns,
switch off your mind, wind down and relax.
They give your mind something specific
to focus on, allowing thoughts to flow
easily but without any complex thinking or
planning. Each activity provides a balance
between challenge and skill. The level
of engagement keeps your attention so
focused that you become fully absorbed in
the moment, preventing stressful thoughts
from entering your head.
The Mindfulness Colouring and Activity Book includes:

Colouring
Zentangles
Optical illusion
activities
Origami

Mazes
Word Puzzles
Doodling activities
Drawing games
Observation games
