THE NEW ART OF MEDITATION ADULTS CAN DE-STRESS WITH COLORING BOOKS

While adult coloring books aren’t necessarily an alternative to art therapy, which is more calculated in its methods, they do take adults back to simpler, less stressful times. In an interview with HuffPost, psychologist Antoni Martínez suggests coloring is more of a “relaxation technique.” It helps people unwind, relieve the stress on their mental health, and refocus their energy on important tasks. If you’re in the market for something new to help disconnect from a long day, try one of these best-sellers.

For some kids, there’s no better way to spend an afternoon than with a bright box of crayons and pages of outlined pictures just begging to be filled in. Coloring allows for total creative freedom. Unfortunately, kids grow up, and that coveted 64-pack of crayons is often reduced to a black pen and a notepad, digital or otherwise. However, in recent years, the coloring book has made a comeback, and it’s no longer geared solely toward children. According to psychologists, coloring in adulthood is a low-impact method for creative expression. Free of chunky lines and silly cartoon characters, these “adult” coloring books are designed with sophisticated images and patterns, and the intricate details have a profoundly relaxing effect on stressed-out adults.
