COLORING MEDITATION JOURNALS

Dragons for Anger: Vol. I

Instead of seeing dragons or my anger as monstrous and something to slay, I hold the idea of dragons as wise beings. Beings that remind me that anger, given a chance to be examined and expressed, could carry me to a dance of celebration. I continue to pen life into these dragons and they breathe fire into me. This exchange fuels my creative openness to face another day. Add this adult coloring book to your wellness toolkit today.

Authentic, raw, and made from love, the artwork of these mindfulness coloring books was born from a will to survive and an effort to make sense of my existence…but also to give myself space for incongruence, an exercise in being open to the flow of these drawings being a bit off, imperfect, and sometimes grotesque.

Dragons for Resilience: Vol. III

The dragon drawings in this meditation journal were born at a time when I thought my circumstances would not only humiliate me but crush me to dust. Instead of dust, I found resilience. I invite you to seek out a quiet place, maybe play some music, and let the wisdom of the accompanying quotes wash over you while you use coloring to reflect on the ways you can keep showing up for yourself…

 

Dragons for Release: Vol. IV

The dragon drawings in this coloring meditation journal helped me to release overwhelming emotions. They came flowing from my imagination and helped me process what was happening in my life. I invite you to find a place where you won’t be disturbed to read the chorus of affirmative voices in the quotes I’ve gathered here and allow the coloring meditation practice to give you space and time to gently release.

What’s my story?

Well, in 2012 (which also happened to be the year of the dragon!), I asked the questions:

What if we could embrace our anger as if it were a dragon costume? 

Imagining we could wear this dragon covering, could we move toward integrating our anger without fearing engulfment or destruction?

Could we put it on when we needed fierceness and take it off again when a task was accomplished?

I found my answer to this inquiry when I began a daily drawing meditation practice where strange and fantastic creatures from my imagination helped me to view anger as a vital messenger in my emotional toolkit. In creating these coloring meditation journals, I compiled quotes about anger, the unknown, resilience and release to be paired with ensembles of my dragon drawings.

This mindfulness exercise is not only a helpful resource to observe emotions but is also helpful in relieving stress, activating creativity and strengthening abilities to focus. Adults and children enjoy the benefits of quiet time activities. I am excited to share these dragon coloring meditation journals with you.

I invite you to use this relaxation technique and let coloring lead you to the possibilities your emotions can uncover.
