Colouring is an art technique that allows us to relax. As we colour, the outside world fades, our breathing slows and deepens. We’re free of distraction and allowing to come to us whatever needs to.

I was delighted, then, to receive this message from Lisa who has turned to colouring the doodles in Slow Journeys in the Same Direction whilst in lockdown:

I have been struggling with my attention span this last week – too much news to consume, kids to manage, no alone time … . So I spent some time colouring your doodle book. I calmed right down and was able to journal for a bit and then read. It was a relief. I shall be doing more colouring!

If you want to pick up a copy for yourself, it’s available online to be delivered to you; just follow this link. It’s only £4.99 and Lisa’s just dropped me a line to let me know postage is free right now!

As far as I’m aware, it is the only colouring book with online content to expand and explore.
