My story.

For a long time I’ve struggled with my mental health and a few years ago I felt like I was at rock bottom with no way out.

I picked up my iPad and began drawing, quick doodles initially followed by more and more complex pictures as I quickly found a way to express myself in a way where I had otherwise not been able to find the words…

Drawing and creating allowed me to connect to others with similar experiences and feelings and I realised I wasn’t alone…
I still have dark days but I now know there are plenty who will listen and plenty who need someone to listen…
Drawing these pictures has always helped me calm my anxious mind 🥰

Colouring has the ability to 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.
