Colouring for the Mind

28/4/2015

Last night I added a new page to my blog, my story about why I started colouring and how it helps my anxiety disorder and all round mental health. Please do give it a read and share if you can, I'd love for someone who is struggling to be helped by discovering colouring. It can be found under my blog title at the top of the main page :D

Many thanks as always xx

Mihaela, thank you so much for sharing your story with me. I'm so pleased to know that, like me, colouring and music gives you hope and happiness in dark times. I am 26 with 2 children under 10 right now, and can't imagine how I'd cope with the loss of my husband and moving to another country on top of my mental health issues. I hope you will continue to follow the blog and enjoy everything I have to show you xx
