Grace MEDS Card (Free Download)

Start your focus on getting more Grace into your life with this free downloadable coloring card.

WHY GRACE IS IMPORTANT:

Having more grace in your life will help you stay connected to yourself. We lose grace when we lose our connection with ourselves and with Source.  Sometimes, it’s hard to find grace because life is just too busy to get connected. We don’t take the time each day to slow down and receive grace. 

When we reconnect with grace, we feel it in every area of our lives.  

HOW COLORING CAN HELP:

Coloring intentional words helps you to engage with the present by noticing and focusing on the quality you want to bring into your life.  While doing this, the mind will wander, but it should always be brought back to the object of focus without judging or being distracted by the content of those wandering thoughts. While moving your crayon, pen, or colored pencil through the intricate shapes on the page, your mind is focusing, often to the exclusion of unpleasant thoughts and the feelings which accompany them.

Coloring calms activity in the amygdala, a part of the brain that handles the “fight or flight” response. This response is a condition in which the body is in a heightened  state of panic and hyper-vigilance—it’s your brain trying to help you fight against something dangerous or, alternatively, to help you flee from it.  This can lead to inflammation—a state in which the body has been overstimulated by stress hormones, and is harming and exhausting itself. You may already know that inflammation is the root of many disorders, including asthma, high blood pressure, Alzheimer’s, and arthritis, and is a silent killer.  Coloring disarms the amygdala, which, in turn, calms our bodies and brains.
