Mindfulness Check-in Oct 27

Hello Mindfulness Community. Today I would like to talk about a fun activity- Drawing/ Coloring. Yay!!
It is a fun activity as well as beneficial in many ways. It can ease your stress. It can make you feel better. It enhances your creativity. It makes you feel calmer and improves your focus and concentration as well.
Drawing is an amazing tool to practice mindfulness while enjoying it. So, this is what I would like you to do today --
Pick a paper and pencil and try to draw or color anything.
Take your time and enjoy it. Even if you have a busy day, take out 5 minutes only to try this activity.
And, then share how did you feel? If you can share your drawing or coloring with us that would be wonderful.
I know many of us are not good with drawing but it is okay. It is not a drawing competition. It is an activity to enjoy and have fun while practicing mindfulness.
Let's do it and share how did you feel. What are your thoughts on this activity?

@ASilentObserver

@ASilentObserver
HIya Baby Obs
Thanks for this check-in! I call it "doodling" hahaha. Sometimes I don't even pay attention I am doing this or WHAT I'm drawing. Sometimes I love this as I am not judging what Im drawing, but more so engrossed in doing this and enjoying it. Has anyone ever been so into drawing something like you are not tuned into what's around you till someone literally pokes you? I do it alot and love it.
So I love just drawing little things here and there
@ASilentObserver
thanks Observer, I love drawing and painting too. Not good at it though but I find mandalas are very useful. When doing it occasionally, I feel very relaxed so I need to go back at it.
