Short Summary

I have great passion for coloring from young age. 

I did my Masters in Mass Communication in Nanyang Technological University, Singapore and Masters in English Literature in India. 

From young I have been drawing and coloring. I always wanted to educate others and impart my knowledge on how coloring has helped me all these years.

Coloring has the great power to give the same effects as meditation. 

Many years of experience and thought over coloring has made me experiment coloring.

In one research, I found scent in the room enhanced the relief with coloring. I tried several methods to bring the scent effects to the coloring experience. 

After many years, we conceptualised the idea of scented color pencils. 

We found scented colored pencils will enhance your coloring experience further.

What We Need & What You Get

We will need 8000 backers to back our idea and bring this to every adult who need a relief from the routine life.
You will get a 25 pages A-3 sized coloring book with $25 perk.  We are giving away 12 pieces scented colored pencils FREE for your support during this campaign.

The Impact

Benefits of coloring

Coloring is not just an activity for keeping kids occupied; we only associate it with children. In reality, coloring books and coloring pages for adults are also extremely therapeutic and can help generate wellness, quietness, mindfulness and the exact same benefits which meditation imparts  on the brain.

Let us study the top 10 benefits of coloring pages for adults in details.

1. Coloring pages for adults help de-stress

One of the earliest scientists to have studied the therapeutic benefits of coloring pages for adults was Carl Jung. He studied coloring of Mandalas as early as the first half of the 20th century. He often used Mandalas (which have concentric circles and geometrical patterns in them) for his patients and found that it helped them become calmer and witness lesser stress.

2. Coloring activities activate both parts of the cerebral hemisphere

According to psychologist Gloria Martinez Ayala, the action of coloring involves both logic and creativity. When we use logic to pick up a color for a particular shape or pattern, we activate the analytical part of the brain. On the other hand, when we choose to mix and match colors, we activate the creative side of the brain. This helps incorporate both areas of the cerebral cortex which control vision and help with coordination and fine motor skills.

3. Coloring pages for adults take them back to childhood

When an adult colors, s/he is transported back to the stress free days of childhood. Getting back those happy memories helps one relax and even feel optimistic and energetic for the future.

4. Coloring is like meditation

Meditation is the art of doing nothing. It is also the art of ‘de-concentrating’ which helps relax and reduce the chatter of a restless mind. While most people find it difficult to meditate, coloring pages and books for adults easily help induce the same meditative state. It is no wonder that many publishers in UK, France and USA have come up with coloring books just for adults. Coloring Mandalas are especially relaxing since coloring of the round and round patterns and concentric circles of these ancient designs relax the mind and make a person more mindful. It also keeps him/her focused on the present moment-just like meditation!

5. Coloring for adults helps reduce anxiety

Anxiety is a common mental condition affecting hundreds of adults. Anxiety and panic attacks cause many symptoms including: thoughts of death or dying, excessive worry, nausea, headaches, chills, fever, insomnia, etc. By using coloring pages for adults, therapists help their adult patients relax. The artistic expression helps patients go deeper into a relaxed state making other forms of therapy more effective. Research has now proven that coloring pages and books for adults can be used as prelude to regular or conventional therapy for many mental disorders.

6. Coloring for adults helps them re-discover themselves

Adults often find themselves stuck in a rut managing jobs, housework etc. Coloring pages can help one get out of this routine, making them feel more comfortable and relaxed at the end of a long day. This activity can also help one be with his/her thoughts. Many an adult has rediscovered him/herself through coloring pages for adults online and offline. You can even download free coloring apps or coloring printables and relax with this wonderful activity at the end of a long day.

7. Coloring for adults is a perfect therapy for many diseases

Coloring books for adults are ideal for patients -especially those battling health issues like epilepsy. Take the example of Cari Schofield, 38, from Stockbridge, Georgia who, due to her epilepsy, had several limitations. Since she started coloring, she finds she easily calms down and relax which, in turn, helps alleviate epileptic attacks. Due to her jerky hand movements, she used to experience difficulty holding a pen or pencil for drawing. But, by using coloring books for adults, she has started enjoying this activity again.

8. Coloring for adults helps spark creativity

One of the most important benefits of coloring books for adults is that they help ignite creativity which adults continue to experience in several other facets of their lives. Adults who color regularly find that they become great at picking colors for their clothes, their interiors etc. Coloring books and pages also help people become more creative in their jobs, analytical thinking activities and several other aspects of work and play.

9. Coloring helps adults reconnect with their Inner Child

Inner Child healing therapy is a popular therapy for disturbed adults who tend to be very harsh with themselves. As adults, we often have certain areas in our lives that need working on and all those areas are connected to certain issues which we carry forward from our past. When one reconnects with his/her inner child, a child full of innocence and love, one can actually become better as an adult. Such inner child healing especially helps break negative thinking patterns. It helps one love him/herself more-unconditionally. This, in turn, helps one become one’s best self-a confidant, radiant person who is ready to take on the world without fear.

10. Coloring books for adults help transport one to a time and place faraway

If, at the end of the day, you really wish to relax and get away from it all-simply bring out your crayons and download some coloring pages. This will surely help you get out and away from it all and help you relax and unwind. It is like taking a vacation without going anywhere!
